Skin Needling
Skin needling, also known as microneedling or collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that supports skin regeneration by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining skin structure and resilience.

Skin Needling is a clinical treatment that uses a pen-like device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the outer layers of the skin. These microchannels stimulate the skin’s natural repair process, supporting the production of collagen and elastin, and help to strengthen the skin’s structure over time.
Skin needling may assist with the appearance of:
- Acne scarring
- Enlarged pores
- Fine lines
- Uneven skin texture
- Stretch marks
- Early signs of skin ageing
This depends on your skin concern and how your skin responds. Most clients benefit from a course of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions may be recommended a few times per year.
Initial improvement may be noticed within a few weeks, but full results typically develop over 1–3 months as collagen production increases. The skin continues to remodel for several months following each treatment.
