Microneedling is a treatment designed to stimulate the skin’s natural repair processes by creating controlled micro-injuries within the skin.
This encourages collagen and elastin production, helping to improve overall skin quality, texture, and firmness over time.
Treatment is tailored to your skin concerns and can be adjusted in depth and intensity depending on the area being treated.
Topical anaesthetic may be used
24–72 hours
4-8 weeks
long term
3–6 sessions spaced 4–8 weeks apart, maintenance every 6-12 months
These before and after images show real patients who have undergone treatment at our clinic. Every result is unique, and your treatment will always be tailored to your individual features, concerns and goals.
The best outcome is one that feels natural, balanced and right for you.
We use medical-grade microneedling devices, including Dermapen® and SkinPen®, depending on clinic location.
These devices are CE-marked, with SkinPen also being FDA-approved, and both have excellent safety profiles when used appropriately.
For best results, a course of treatments is usually recommended.
Typically, this involves 3–6 sessions spaced around 4-8 weeks apart, depending on your skin concerns.
Most patients find the treatment very manageable. A numbing cream can be applied beforehand if needed, although many patients describe the sensation as light pressure or a mild buzzing feeling.
You may experience some redness after treatment, similar to a mild sunburn.
This usually settles within 24–48 hours, and most patients return to normal activities within a day.
Yes—microneedling can be combined with PRP for enhanced results.
PRP may be applied to the skin during or immediately after treatment to support healing and improve overall outcomes.
Scars tell a story, but they don't have to define your skin. They can be softened.
Acne affects far more than your skin. With the right plan, it can be controlled.
Dull, uneven, congested skin can hold you back. Its clarity can be restored.
Lips change with time, and so do the lines around them. Both can be refreshed.
