Microneedling

Medical microneedling creates thousands of controlled micro-channels in the dermis with a sterile motorised pen. The wound-healing cascade that follows remodels collagen and elastin, refining texture, shrinking the appearance of pores, softening acne scarring and improving pigmentation. Depths are adjusted zone by zone across the face.

• Smooths texture and refines enlarged pores
• Softens atrophic acne scars and stretch marks
• Improves fine lines and overall firmness
• Evens tone and reduces post-inflammatory pigmentation
• Safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, including deeper tones

Anyone with acne scarring, uneven texture, enlarged pores or early lines. Avoid over active acne cysts, active eczema or infection, during isotretinoin use or within six months of stopping, and during pregnancy.

• No makeup for 24 hours; cleanse with water only that first evening
• No actives (retinol, acids, vitamin C) for 5 days
• Strict SPF 50 for two weeks
• No gym, sauna or swimming for 48 hours

• Microneedling or laser for acne scars?

  Microneedling is safer for deeper skin tones and has less downtime; laser can be faster for severe scarring. We advise at consultation.

• Can I add PRP?
• Is it the same as a dermaroller?
