MicroNeedling
MicroNeedling Treatment
- Gentle Skin Needling
- Dermarolling
- Clinical Pen Skin Needling
The overall aim of MicroNeedling is to trigger the skin’s natural healing processes by creating micro channels to stimulate cell turnover and the production of new collagen and elastin fibres. The skin’s reaction to these micro-wounds is to send blood cells, collagen and elastin to the area which plumps out the skin cells acting as a natural protective barrier. The plumping effect takes place due to the enhanced collagen production. This treatment will also improve the overall tone and texture of the skin, and target skin concerns such as scarring, wrinkles and pigmentation.
MicroNeedling can instantly rejuvenate tired, dull skin - improving blood circulation helping to flush out any toxins within the skin.

How does Microneedling work?
Pre Care
By creating small micro channels we are allowing active ingredients to penetrate directly in the intersection between the epidermis and the dermis. This is where scarring, wrinkles, fine lines, dehydration and sagging of the skin can originate.
Your specialist will use our targeted serums and vitamins, which contain Active Ingredients, to infuse the skin into the areas of concern. It can help achieve clearer, smoother and brighter skin, your skin will feel tighter, firm and plump. It will also help hydrate and improve the appearance of pigmentation and acne scarring.
This is an all-round treatment that can be performed as a programme or as an add on to boost the skin. After treatment, skin may look red and feel warm. Keeping the skin hydrated will prevent any dryness.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a gentle form of manual exfoliation of the skin, we love this treatment and think it is the most effective exfoliating method. Dead skin cells are gently yet effectively removed from the face and neck which helps rid of impurities and debris layering on the skin clogging pores. Without the layer of dead skin cells getting in the way, it's easier for treatments and serums to penetrate your skin, this will help enhance the products you use post treatment.
What are the benefits of Dermaplaning?
Reducing the appearance of fine lines, evening skin tone and helping with the reduction of milia, blackheads, whiteheads and congestion associated with breakouts. A unique benefit of dermaplaning is the temporary removal of vellus hair, this is the tiny fine hair found on the face and neck. The hair will grow back exactly the same colour and thickness as it was previously - because you are removing the dead layer of skin and vellus hair, your skin will appear much brighter than you've experienced past. It is a Healthy way to exfoliate and cleanse skin with no downtime.
How is Dermaplaning performed?
Using a handheld dermatome and a surgical blade which gently scrapes over the skin, this treatment is completely painless and non-invasive.
I have acne, can I still get this treatment?
If you suffer from acne skin - dermaplane is not recommended as acne begins in the hair follicle and when the hair is removed it can aggravate or stimulate more acne breakouts. Please speak to us for other treatments that may help you.
Please note that this treatment does help with acne scarring.
Are there any side effects?
Immediately after the treatment the skin may seem red and flushed more than usual this is because the blood flow has been stimulated, this will usually subside after a few hours.
