Microneedling

What is microneedling?

 

Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. This process stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, improving texture, tone, and elasticity. It is suitable for rejuvenation, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and early signs of ageing.

Products we use

 

We use medical-grade microneedling devices and can combine treatment with licensed serums, polynucleotides, or exosomes depending on individual goals. Devices and products are handled according to clinical best practice.

 

​

 

How it works 

 

Micro-injuries stimulate fibroblast activity and natural collagen and elastin production. Enhanced serum absorption improves hydration, skin repair, and cellular regeneration. Multiple sessions provide cumulative results.
