Skin Needling

Underlying structures of the skin deteriorate with age resulting in lines, wrinkles, large pores, uneven skin tone and texture. Microneedling is an effective technique for reversing these common signs of ageing. Clinically proven to induce collagen response your body will start to naturally regenerate the skin below the surface of the dermis to form new collagen and elastin fibres. New skin cells are stimulated and new capillaries form to improve the blood supply. This procedure is called Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT).

Our medical microneedling SkinPen (corrective needling) is a medical device that induces collagen production, which helps diminish skin concerns. Along with addressing common signs of ageing, microneedling is also ideal for melasma as well as surgical and acne scars. During a typical treatment, a pen-like device is attached to a disposable cartridge, which contains a series of small needles. As the device moves across the skin, it creates small microinjuries, which aren’t visible to the naked eye. These small punctures encourage tissue regeneration, which gradually improves the appearance of the skin. This tissue regeneration process is referred to as collagen induction therapy (CIT).

The CIT process breaks down old and damaged strands of collagen, leaving the skin to produce new, stronger strands. Not only does this improve the appearance of the skin, but the structure and function too. It usually takes up to three months to see a visible improvement and most skin types will require at least 3 treatments for optimal results.

Ideal for premature ageing, skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, acne and other scarring.
