MICRONEEDLING

What is Microneedling? Microneedling is a treatment where sterile tiny needles attached to a handheld device, are used to make many tiny openings in your skin, which results in: increased collagen production, keratinocyte targeting, normalisation of sebaceous secretion and normalisation of melanin production.

These actions aim to: increase your skin’s elasticity, decrease scarring, decrease enlarged skin pores and normalise your pigmentation.

During your Microneedling treatment, hydrating products approved for use during Microneedling will be applied to your skin. This practice has sourced Hypoallergenic, Vegan and high quality pre and post Microneedling products. We’ve done the hard work, so you can relax and enjoy your treatment.

Additionally, your treatment will be done using sterile technique, reducing the chances of post procedure complications.

What Cosmetic/Aesthetic conditions can Microneedling help with? Some of the conditions include:

Hyperpigmentation of the skin

Hypopigmentation of the skin

Scarring, such as Acne scars

Skin Wrinkling (Loss of skin elasticity due to decreased collagen production)

Enlarged Pores

Stretch marks

Hair loss and Hair thinning in both Women and Men

Is Microneedling painful? Each person feels pain differently, that being said, this practice uses Microneedling cartridges designed to decrease pain, and your skin will be numbed with a topical numbing gel before the procedure. These techniques reduce the discomfort that may be felt during the procedure.

When will I start to see results after my Microneedling? Typically, within 2-4 weeks you should see some results. 3 treatments in total are recommended for maximum results and maintenance.

Part of your treatment package will include a consultation before treatment, and written pre and post Microneedling instructions.

Please contact our practice, and have a one to one consultation with Dr. John about your Microneedling needs.
