Skin Needling

Skin Needling (also know as Dermal Rolling) is an organic way of rebuilding collagen elastin.  

Think of acupuncture, as the concept is very similar to Skin Needling. The tiny needles create microscopic channels into the skin causing a controlled wound which forces the body to promote healing in the affected area.

This wound healing response is what stimulates new collagen and elastin formation which then assists with plumping out fine lines, wrinkles and acne scarring.

Skin Needling also increases cell renewal which assists in the normalising of dysfunctioning pigment cells for a clearer, more even skin tone and texture.

What does the treatment involve?

The treatment involves applying a small roller made of tiny surgical needles to the surface of the skin. The roller creates tiny puncture channels that encourage an organic collagen renewal and regeneration response and the treatment takes no longer than 30 minutes. 

Our Skin Therapists use the cosmedical DNC derma roller to ensure the treatment is fast, effective, and patients truly obtain the skin needling results they want.

Skin needling benefits also include stimulation of organic collagen renewal that is perfect for people that cannot undertake laser therapy treatments for skin conditions such as acne scarring. 

The mineral rich Institut Rejuvenate Serum is a perfect product to help maintain results. It is designed to accelerate skin renewal and increase skin firmness and elasticity. 

LED Light Therapy can also be used after this treatment to maximise results (as an add on).
