£159 - Skin needling

*Please note - initial Skin Consultation required prior to booking this treatment.

Healthy skin

Skin needling, also known as microneedling, is the world's number 1 modality for skin rejuvenation, with each treatment creating stronger, healthier & more youthful looking skin. During a treatment, tiny sterile needles create punctures to the skin, initiating a wound healing response, resulting in new collagen and elastin fibres being formed. Collagen makes up 70%  (dry weight) of the material in our Dermis; from the age of 25 our collagen levels decline each year. Collagen can't be made directly by taking collagen supplements or applied in topical products, it is made by the body.

Youth proteins

The dermis is what gives our skin it’s support & structure - think of the coiled springs in a mattress that keep it supported & firm. These ‘springs’ are protein fibres, namely collagen and elastin; they are made by cells called fibroblasts which also make hyaluronic acid, the gel like protein that retains our skin’s moisture and give it bounce. Prior to skin needling, the fibroblast cells we have are the same ones we have had since we were 20 years old; they become tired & less efficient at creating our ‘youth proteins’, resulting in a sagging ‘mattress’. 

The good news

Skin needling is the ONLY skin rejuvenation modality that has the ability to stimulate the fibroblast cells to divide and create BRAND NEW ones. A Skin Needling treatment can increase collagen production by up to 400%. What this means for you is an improvement in fine lines, wrinkles & open pores. Skin needling is also an effective treatment for other skin conditions such as pigmentation, rosacea, acne & scarring.

Preparation is key

As Skin Needling is an advanced clinical treatment, it is a necessary requirement that all new clients book an initial Skin Consultation. Full transparency here - I only perfom Skin Needling on clients who have prepared their skin by by regularly using the skincare recommended by myself, as using the correct homecare greatly influences what kind of results you will achieve. Skin Needling isn't a quick fix and for best results I recommend a course of 3 to 6 treatments at 6 - 8 weeek intervals. You can book a Skin Consultation through the 'Book Now' button below or if you have any questions you can Contact me.

Safety first

Not all skin needling treatments are created equal - I hold an internationally recognised VTCT level 4 qualification and perform my treatments using the Exceed microneedling device by Amiea Med, the world's first and ONLY double FDA cleared device for facial wrinkles and acne scars with MHRA registration.
