What is Microneedling?
Microneedling (collagen induction therapy) uses a sterile device to create controlled micro-injuries, triggering a natural repair cascade that boosts collagen and elastin. It targets texture, pores, scars and fine lines while keeping skin intact—no added volume, just better skin quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Procedure
We apply topical anaesthetic to maximise your comfort during the procedure and numb the skin using a cream. It will normally take up to 20 minutes for the topical anaesthetic to work and 20 for the treatment.
Microneedling is described by most patients as uncomfortable rather than painful. The newest types of derma pens we use in clinic cause the least discomfort as they deliver treatment extremely quickly using vibration.
Duration & Longevity
The appointment lasts approximately 45mins
A skin consultation will be done prior to micro needling to assess suitability
We advise a course of 3 treatments up to 6 weeks apart for optimal results
Downtime
You may experience redness and mild swelling which settles within 48hrs. You will be advised to apply sunscreen regularly and avoid extremes of heat and cold, exposure to the sun, saunas, sun beds and vigorous exercise for 48 hours.
It can take up to six weeks before visible signs of regeneration and repair are seen and the process will continue over the following months, providing you with a natural and long-lasting enhancement.
