WHAT IS SKIN NEEDLING
Skin needling, also known as microneedling or collagen induction therapy, is one of the skin treatments we offer to improve concerns such as uneven texture, fine lines, scarring, and overall skin quality. The treatment creates tiny controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate its natural repair process, encouraging new collagen and elastin production from within.
Unlike more intensive resurfacing treatments, it doesn’t require any ablative downtime. Results develop gradually as your skin renews itself between treatments. Many clients notice improvements in texture and clarity within the first few weeks. Skin tone, firmness, and overall quality continue to improve throughout a recommended course of treatment.
HOW IT HELPS
Skin needling works progressively, with results that build across a course of sessions rather than appearing all at once. It is particularly well suited to concerns that respond to consistent collagen rebuilding over time.
Skin needling improves texture, tone, and overall skin clarity by stimulating collagen production. Many clients notice smoother, brighter skin within the first few treatments, with results continuing to develop over time.
As collagen and elastin production increases, fine lines gradually soften and skin feels firmer, helping to reduce the early signs of ageing.
Acne scars can become less noticeable as skin needling remodels the tissue beneath the skin barrier, improving overall texture. A personalised treatment plan may include skin needling alongside chemical peels to target deeper or more complex scarring.
Uneven pigmentation can improve over a course of treatments as increased cell turnover helps create a clearer, more even complexion.
As collagen strengthens the skin, enlarged pores often appear less noticeable, leaving the skin looking smoother and more refined.
Regular skin needling supports stronger, healthier skin and helps maintain long-term skin quality. For clients seeking greater skin rejuvenation, it can also be combined with Rejuran to enhance the regenerative benefits.
The Process
Every appointment follows the same general process, with your treatment tailored to your skin. This is what you can expect.
At our Hawthorn skin clinic, we begin by assessing your skin, discussing your concerns, and understanding what you would like to achieve. This helps us confirm that skin needling is the right treatment for you.
Your skin is cleansed before a topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment. We allow enough time for it to take full effect before we begin.
A specialised device is passed over the treatment area to create tiny controlled micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates your skin’s natural repair process while remaining comfortable for most clients.
A soothing serum is applied after your treatment. We then go through your aftercare before you leave, so you know exactly what to expect over the next day or two.
Skin needling delivers the best results as part of a treatment plan. We assess your skin at each appointment and adjust your treatment as your skin continues to improve.
