Fresh, youthful, flawless skin glows from within. Over time, skin can lose that youthful radiance and become less efficient at protecting against and healing skin imperfections. Microneedle RF treatment is designed to address these concerns by delivering minimally invasive Collagen Induction Therapy, which can benefit a wide range of skin concerns for both men and women.
Skin needling benefits include effectively reducing the appearance of:
Skin needling is a process of pricking the skin’s surface with tiny needles to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein made naturally in the body and plays an essential role in the skin structure. Yet, natural collagen production diminishes with age. Skin Needling treatments stimulate the skin to produce more collagen and skin-plumping elastin, while inducing a wound-healing response, bringing back that more youthful appearance.
Skin needling treatments induce a wound healing response in the skin, making them effective at reducing and dealing with a wide range of skin concerns on the face and body.
Minimise those crow’s feet, laugh lines, frown lines, drooping, and creased skin concerns with micro-needling. As fine lines and wrinkles are often caused by reduced collagen and elastin levels, skin needling treatments can initiate the skin to produce these plumping proteins at higher, more youthful rates again. The result is smoother, firmer, tauter skin for a more youthful appearance.
An additional benefit of skin needling is the improvement of microchannels that allow topical treatments to penetrate the skin more easily. Talk to us about combining topical treatments with skin needling during your free consultation.
Minimise that tired, malnourished look from dark under-eye circles with skin needling. The skin around the eyes is thin, and when excess blood pools in the area, it becomes easily visible, causing dark circles. Micro-needling promotes the skin to heal thicker, filling the circles under your eyes and reducing the dark appearance.
Elastin production is also improved, improving sagging skin and smoothing lines, further reducing that tired look so that you look more rested and fresh-faced.
Scarring is caused by trauma to the skin. The sad fact is that many of us have scars from acne, injuries or surgeries. While they tell a part of our story, we don’t need to keep them for life. Skin needling can speed up the scar healing process, helping you move forward without the physical reminders.
Skin needling can help minimise:
Just like the skin needling benefits for other skin concerns, micro-needling induces a wound-healing process that promotes collagen and elastin production. These proteins can aid in smoothing the scar’s surface and reducing discolouration more quickly.
Skin pigmentation is not uncommon across men and women of all ages. The uneven production of melanin results in spots and marks on the skin and may have many causes, including sun exposure, some medications, and aging.
Skin needling benefits the appearance of:
Micro-needling is a safe, cost-effective and non-invasive way of reducing skin discolouration, talk to us about your options during your initial consultation.
Rosacea is a common condition, affecting both men and women with redness and visible blood vessels in the face. Skin needling treatments can assist in the healing of rosacea. By inducing a wound healing process, blood flow in the area is improved, allowing the blood vessels to contract.
Skin needling also promotes collagen and elastin production, supporting more robust blood vessels with better elasticity and firmer, more toned skin, reducing veins’ visibility.

Acne, blemishes and enlarged pores can be hard to cope with, and you may even think you’re stuck with them forever. Yet, skin needling can be very effective at minimising these skin issues on the face, chest, back and other areas.
Skin needling stimulates collagen production, which plumps the skin and makes pores appear smaller. Smaller pores may be less prone to getting clogged with sebum and dirt, contributing to acne and blackheads. While one treatment offers benefits, regular skin needling sessions can positively impact overall skin tone, shrink pores’ appearance, and reduce breakouts and acne pigmentation.
Skin needling stimulates collagen production, helping to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, improve skin tone and refine pores, and minimise the appearance of scarring and stretch marks. This is considered positive for the skin, as good collagen is an indicator of youthfulness. The process also helps the skin to absorb skincare products for ongoing healthier skin.
Skin Needling is considered safe for all skin types as it doesn’t use any products or active ingredients that could cause reactions. Skin needling works by making thousands of tiny needle pricks in the skin that stimulate the body’s natural healing process and requires little to no downtime post-treatment. However, it is not recommended in conjunction with some acne medications or psoriasis, eczema, open wounds or active cystic acne, keloid scarring, or pregnancy. There are also some precautions relating to skin products during the days following your procedure to avoid possible reactions.
Skin needling is not ideal if you have active breakouts, although it is suitable once you have cleared your skin. Skin needling can help improve the appearance of acne scarring and stimulates the skin to heal more efficiently. In the same way that the skin needling improves aging skin appearance, increased collagen and elastin production also help to reduce acne scars and residual redness.
Everyone’s skin is different, and the skin needling treats a range of skin concerns, so the number of micro-needling treatments needed will vary from person to person. Most people will repeat treatments every four to eight weeks until they reach their desired results.
For scar reduction, an average of three to six treatments is typical with desired results from around six treatments.
Directly after treatment, your skin may appear flushed, with slight redness and possible mild swelling much like a light sunburn. Depending on the intensity of the treatment, you may also experience light flaking. The majority of the redness and swelling should subside within twelve to twenty-four hours, with the average healing process being two to five days.
While skin-needling treatments performed are well tolerated, there are some possible side effects. These include some slight swelling, temporary discomfort, and minor redness with possible bruising, dryness, and light flaking within the following days. You’ll be able to continue everyday life during this time, with some special considerations for your skin.
We recommend combining skin needling and HIFU skin tightening together in a treatment plan to maximise their effects. Skin needling and HIFU are usually performed separately to induce new collagen production. HIFU treatments work by generating heat, which stimulates new collagen production deep within the skin, while the skin needling stimulates the top few millimetres. Together, they provide even better results.
Another benefit of treatments is that renewed skin can better absorb active ingredients from skincare products, so introducing quality topical products into your regime may boost results.

Everyone’s skin is different. Generally, you should see the treatment beginning to work as your skin starts to heal within four to seven days after your first treatment. In four to six weeks, you are ready for your next session where the positive results will then begin to accumulate as your skin’s natural ability to produce collagen is further stimulated. For some conditions, such as treatments to reduce scarring, the results should be permanent. However, for other concerns, such as wrinkles and enlarged pores, the skin may return to its pre-treatment condition over time, and maintenance treatments are recommended.
