Microneedling
The non-surgical way to treat textural problems
Microneedling is an effective non-surgical way to treat textural problems in the skin. It improves the skins texture as it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin to help the skin restructure itself.
We use Microneedling primarily to address issues in texture such as
- Fine surface lines
- Acne
- Acne scarring
- Open pores
- Scares and acne scars
- Uneven skin
- Pigmentation
- Sun damage
- Scar reduction
- Stretch marks
The science
Small fine needles are used to create tiny holes in the skin and the body quickly responds with its own natural wound healing mechanism. The depth and density of the needles are controlled and may depend on what results are required.
Studies have shown that with 4 sessions of micro needling collagen production was increased by 500%.

We often recommend micro needling as a combined treatment to help our other treatments to get optimal results.
