Why This Treatment Works
Micro Skin Needling effectively rejuvenates and revitalizes the skin by creating controlled micro-injuries that trigger the body’s natural healing process.
This stimulates collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity.
Additionally, the treatment improves the absorption of skincare products, making them more effective.
The minimally invasive procedure ensures precision and comfort, leading to smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin with minimal downtime.
The treatment’s minimal downtime allows you to quickly resume your daily activities while enjoying long-lasting results.
Your Treatment Experience
We begin with a double cleanse to remove dirt, grime, and oils, followed by a sanitiser to prepare your skin.
The micro skin needling treatment uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries, stimulating collagen production and enhancing product absorption.
This leads to reduced fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and pore size, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.
Most clients experience mild redness and swelling, which typically subsides within a few days.

Micro Skin Needling is suitable for all skin types, except those with inflamed active cystic acne.
An great choice if you are looking to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and pore size.

Social Downtime
Redness will be apparent on most skins and can last up to 72hours on some skins. Mineral make up can be worn from the next day.
What is Social Downtime?
Downtime is a term that refers to the time needed to recover from a procedure.
Our treatments have no downtime but may involve some social downtime. Social downtime does not require making any major changes to your day-to-day activities, however you may prefer to avoid social settings during this time for cosmetic reasons (such as redness or swelling).
Immediate Skin Changes
The day of your treatment, you may experience redness and a tingling sensation under the skin.
In the days following, you might notice small pin-prick marks where the needles were used, along with sensitivity, tightness, and a dry feel.
These reactions are normal and indicate that your skin is starting the repair process by producing collagen and elastin.
Mineral-based makeup can be worn the day after your treatment, allowing you to continue your daily routine while your skin heals and rejuvenates.
Long-Term Improvements
Micro Skin Needling offers substantial long-term benefits, including enhanced collagen production, improved skin texture, and reduced fine lines, wrinkles, or acne scars.
Over time, you’ll notice a smoother, more even skin tone, refined pores, and long-lasting hydration.
Multiple treatments are recommended for optimal results, as the effects are cumulative.
This approach ensures continuous improvements in skin health, leading to firmer, more elastic, and radiant skin.
What to Do Before Your Treatment
Sensitivity is individual: While we strive to ensure that our treatments are as comfortable as possible, we understand that each individual has different sensitivities. If you feel that you might benefit from using a numbing cream prior to your appointment, we recommend the brand "Numb It".
Applying this cream about 30-45 minutes before your treatment can help minimise any discomfort. Please follow the product's instructions carefully for the best results.
Avoid Exfoliating Products: Stop using exfoliating products, including scrubs, retinoids/Vitamin A, and glycolic acid, at least 4-5 days before the Treatment to avoid irritation
Avoid Strenuous Exercise: In the 4-6 hours prior to your treatment.
Drink Water: Ensure you are drinking plenty of water to maintain skin hydration from the inside.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimise sun exposure and avoid tanning beds for at least a week before the treatment.
Stop Waxing and Hair Removal: Avoid waxing, threading, or using depilatory creams on the treatment area at least a week before the treatment.
Caring for Your Skin Post-Treatment
1. Hydration and Moisturisation
• Use Gentle Moisturisers: Keep your skin well-hydrated with a gentle, hydrating moisturiser. We will recommend products that contain soothing ingredients like aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, and chamomile.
• Drink Water: Maintain internal hydration by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
2. Sun Protection
• Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight as much as possible. Your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays after the peel.
• Use Sunscreen: Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily. Reapply every two hours if you’re outside for extended periods.
3. Gentle Skincare Routine
• Cleanse Gently: Use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean your face twice a day. Avoid scrubbing your skin.
• Avoid Exfoliating: Steer clear of products containing retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and any other exfoliants for minimum of 3 days.
5. Avoid Heat and Sweating
• Stay Cool: Avoid activities that cause excessive sweating, such as heavy workouts, saunas, and hot showers, as heat can irritate your skin post-peel.
6. Follow Your Therapists Advice
• Adhere to Instructions: Follow any specific post-care instructions provided by your skin therapist. They will provide tailored advice based on your skin’s response to the treatment.
By following these steps, you can enhance the results of your Micro Skin Needling treatment, promoting healthy, radiant skin.
Duration of Results
The results of Micro Skin Needling for fine lines and wrinkles are both immediate and long-lasting.
You will notice smoother, firmer skin right after the treatment. Over the following weeks, as collagen and elastin production increases, improvements in skin texture, tone, and firmness will become more evident.
For optimal results, an initial series of treatments is recommended, as the effects are cumulative.
