Skin Needling

Skin needling has grown in popularity over the past few years and is an extremely exciting and interesting treatment. There are three types of skin rollers or needle depths. Ranging from shallow to deeper and the effects are consistent with the depth of the needle. This is a treatment that must be carefully performed, and your clinician must be extremely well trained with good medical backup. The very small puncture marks stimulate the skin to heal and this increases the collagen and elastin in the skin improving the quality. For the younger patient who is after prevention the shallow needle depth is excellent. For the more mature patient the deeper treatment is required, and the results can be amazing. It is also a good adjunct in the treatment of scars and acne scars.

The treatment can take between 15-30 minutes and the down time ranges depending on the depth of the needle from 1-7 days. It is a very good treatment to book in and have yearly.
