Skin Needling also known as Micro needling or Dermapen, is a procedure that uses multiple, fine needles to pierce the skin and create tiny injuries. These dermal injuries lead to new collagen formation via the normal skin peel repair mechanisms, enabling the deposition of new collagen.
For even better results plus tightening without downtime, try our VIVACE RF & Microneedling treatments.

Each skin responds differently but will need multiple treatments at 4-6 week intervals, dependent on the initial condition being treated, and the desired outcome.
Skin needling takes approximately 30-40 minutes to complete though you will need to arrive 30 minutes prior to allow for the application of a topical anaesthetic.
Please note: A very small number of skins will have a minimal response to needling
We recommend the skin is primed with active ingredients or best skin care products for at least two weeks prior to the treatment. This is to maximise treatment outcomes, assist in speeding the healing time and reduce the risk of possible complications. A specific skin care regime will be recommended to you at your initial consultation.
You may feel some pressure though you won’t feel any pain due to the topical anaesthetic that is applied prior to your procedure.
This will vary according to the depth and intensity of the area being treated.
Daily use of your recommended skin care products and monthly treatments such as light Skin Needling, Glycolic & Lactic Acid Peels, Microdermabrasion or Sonobrasion will help maintain long term results and will be recommended to you by your Dermal Therapist during your initial consultation, according to your individual requirements.
New collagen fills depressed scars and wrinkles from the bottom up lifting the depression so they are level with the surrounding skin. Is also great to help thicken thin, crepey skin, stretch marks, and for overall skin rejuvenation to improve the signs of aging. Alternatively if you are wanting additional tightening without any downtime we recommend VIVACE® Microneedling & Radiofrequency.
This process takes 2-3 months to produce visible results and 6-9 months for full effects to be seen.
Skin needling can also be performed as part of your home care routine, using much smaller needles to improve penetration of the active skin care, and for overall rejuvenation without any downtime.
We don’t do fast paced, production line treatments with generic settings or placements. All our treatments are performed thoroughly, safely and effectively, according to your individual needs, so you get real visible results.
