Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure involving puncturing the skin with tiny, sterilized needles to induce controlled skin injuries. It stimulates wound healing processes, stimulating collagen and elastin production to improve texture, firmness, scarring, and stretch mark reduction.
Micro-Needling is a skincare procedure with minimal recovery time and significant results:
PRP, also known as platelet-rich plasma, is a concentration of platelets derived from the patient’s own blood. These platelets contain growth factors that help in tissue repair and regeneration. During the procedure, PRP is applied to the skin after micro needling, allowing the growth factors to penetrate the skin more deeply and enhance the skin’s healing process. This combination treatment is often used for improving skin texture, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and addressing certain skin concerns like acne scars or hyperpigmentation.

Micro-needling is commonly used as a treatment option for acne scars. The procedure involves creating tiny punctures on the skin’s surface using a device with fine needles. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing response, triggering the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. The micro-injuries promote the formation of new collagen via collagen induction, which can help fill in and smooth out the depressions caused by acne scars. The new collagen fibers formed during the healing process can remodel the skin’s texture and tone, reducing the visibility of acne scars.
Micro-needling is also commonly used as a treatment option for fine lines and wrinkles. The procedure works by creating controlled micro-injuries to the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production, and promoting skin rejuvenation. The micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, leading to the production of new collagen. This increase in collagen helps improve skin elasticity and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Micro needling stimulates cell turnover and promotes the growth of fresh, healthier skin cells. This can lead to improved skin texture, tone, and overall complexion, making fine lines and wrinkles less noticeable.
Micro-needling creates micro-channels in the skin to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential proteins responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. These micro-channels in the skin also allow skincare product to penetrate deeper into the epidermis; improving the absorption and effectiveness of serums, creams, and other topical treatments. The controlled skin injury prompts the body’s healing response, encouraging the growth of new skin cells which can improve skin texture, reducing unevenness, roughness, and hyperpigmentation, leading to a more youthful and radiant complexion.
We are so privileged to have been able to look after so many patients that are thrilled with their results.
Immediately after the procedure, your skin may appear red or have a slight sunburn-like sensation. This is normal and usually subsides within a day or two. You may also experience mild swelling and pinpoint bleeding, but these should resolve quickly. Over the next few days, your skin may feel tight and slightly dry. It’s important to keep your skin well moisturized and protected from the sun. Remember to follow any post-treatment instructions provided by your Provider. It’s essential to avoid direct sun exposure, use gentle cleansers, and avoid harsh skincare products or treatments during the healing process.
Results can vary depending on each patient’s individual factors and treatment goals. Typically, results can start to be seen about 4 to 6 weeks weeks after treatment.
