Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries within the skin. These microchannels trigger the body’s natural wound-healing cascade without causing significant damage to the epidermis.

In response, inflammatory mediators are releasedMicroneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries within the skin. These microchannels trigger the body’s natural wound-healing cascade without causing significant damage to the epidermis.

In response, inflammatory mediators are released, activating fibroblasts within the dermis. This leads to increased production of collagen types I and III, elastin, and fibrin, which are essential components of healthy, youthful skin.

As new collagen is laid down and the dermal matrix is remodelled, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more uniform in texture. Microneedling is particularly effective for improving fine lines, enlarged pores, mild acne scarring, and overall skin tone. It also enhances transdermal delivery of topical agents, allowing active ingredients to penetrate more effectively.

To minimise potential side effects such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, infection, or excessive inflammation, treatment parameters are carefully tailored to each patient. This includes adjusting needle depth, speed, and treatment density based on skin type, concern, and anatomical area. Strict sterile technique and appropriate pre- and post-procedure skincare are used to support optimal healing.

Following treatment, patients typically experience redness and mild swelling similar to sunburn, which usually resolves within 24–72 hours. Skin quality continues to improve over several weeks as collagen remodelling progresses, with cumulative benefits seen after a series of treatments.
