Micro Needling Treatment | Skin Needling Devices
What is microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure for your skin. Your healthcare provider uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin’s healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. These proteins keep your skin firm and smooth.
Most people get microneedling on their face, but you can also get it on your legs, back, neck or other areas where you notice damaged or aging skin. You’ll probably need multiple treatments to achieve your desired results.
Does Micro Needling Hurt? What Are The Side Effects of Micro Needling?
Most of our clients describe the treatment sensation as mildly scratchy or warm, but entirely manageable. Our team is trained to check in throughout the process to make sure you feel safe, supported and comfortable.
The treatment is quick and most clients experience only minimal discomfort, if any. We don’t apply numbing or anesthetic prior to treatment as this can interfere with the treatment’s effectiveness and actually leave your skin a little worse for wear.
After your appointment, your skin may look a little red – like a light sunburn – for 24 to 48 hours. You might also experience slight tightness, dryness or mild flaking as your skin begins to heal. This is completely normal and part of the rejuvenation process.
We’ll give you detailed aftercare instructions, including what to avoid (like makeup, heat, and any skincare actives) and how to support healing at home. Most clients feel comfortable returning to normal activities after 1–2 days, with full recovery within the week.
What Are The Benefits of Micro Needling?
Skin needling can improve a wide range of skin concerns. Some of the most common reasons our clients choose this treatment include:
Fine lines and wrinkles – Helps smooth and soften the appearance of aging skin
Acne scarring – Breaks down old scar tissue and encourages healthy skin renewal
Pigmentation and sun damage – Evens out skin tone and encourages clarity
Stretch marks and surgical scars – Can soften texture and improve appearance over time
Overall skin texture and glow – Refines pores and boosts radiance
When Will I See Results From My Micro Needling Treatment?
You’ll start to notice a change in your skin like a healthy glow within a few days – but the real benefit happens over time. As your skin continues to produce new collagen, you’ll see deeper improvements in texture, firmness and clarity over the following 4–6 weeks.
For best results, we recommend a series of 3-6 treatments depending on your skin type and concerns, spaced 4–8 weeks apart. During your consultation, we’ll create a personalised plan based on your skin goals.
What happens after microneedling?
Microneedling is an outpatient procedure, so you can go home once it’s done. Your skin might be red and swollen for up to five days. An ice pack can help reduce irritation and discomfort. Most people can wear makeup the day after the procedure, but you should stay out of the sun until your skin heals.
