Skin needling, also known as microneedling, is a popular skin rejuvenation procedure that visibly improves a wide range of concerns. Micro-fine needles are adjusted to different depths and speeds to create fractional puncture channels on the skin’s surface. This treatment naturally stimulates collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer skin while reducing acne scarring, stretch marks, fine lines, pigmentation, enlarged pores, and blackheads.
In our clinic we use the Dermapen 4 microneedling system and products. We adhere to their strict professional clinical procedures and protocols, including using only recommended Dp Dermaceutical skincare products within our treatments.
What Does Our Treatment Include?
In addition to stimulating collagen, the microchannels created during the treatment enhance the absorption of specialised serums. These serums are selected based on your specific skin concerns—whether it’s hydration, pigmentation, or anti-ageing. The combination of microneedling and active ingredients delivers visible improvements faster than microneedling alone.

COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED
What does skin needling do?
Skin needling, also known as microneedling, uses tiny, controlled punctures to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process. This promotes collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, and minimising scars. The Dermapen 4 is used for precise and effective results.
What is skin needling good for?
It is highly effective for improving skin texture, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, minimising enlarged pores, and treating acne scars. It can also help with pigmentation and overall skin rejuvenation.
does skin needling hurt
Most people experience mild discomfort during a skin needling session. The Dermapen 4 features advanced technology that minimises discomfort, and a topical numbing cream is typically applied to ensure a more comfortable experience.
Can you wear makeup after skin needling?
It’s recommended to avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after a session. This allows your skin to properly heal and reduces the risk of irritation or infection.
How many sessions do I need?
The number of sessions needed varies depending on your skin concerns, we recommend an initial series of 3-5 treatments spaced 4- 6 weeks apart. Once you have completed a treatment course, we recommend one session approximately every 6 months depending on your concerns to maintain results.
Is there downtime?
Individuals may experience facial redness for 12-48 hours after the treatment. Most people can return to normal daily activities immediately after the treatment. Some dryness to the skin can be experienced over the following 1-2 weeks post treatment.
Who is the treatment for?
Skin Needling is a skin rejuvenation treatment suitable for all skin types. It doesn’t use any form of heat, so it’s a great anti-ageing and resurfacing option for darker skin types. This treatment is ideal for individuals with skin concerns including ageing, fine lines, collagen induction, pigmentation, scars, stretch marks, enlarged pores, and rosacea.
