THE PROCEDURE
Mirconeedling is a minimally invasive treatment, the micro-needles on the device create micro punctures this is to stimulate and encourage the production of collagen and elastin. Microchannels are also left on the dermis from the microneedling, this helps the solution to better penetrate the skin deeply, but damaging the skin and it stimulates the healing process in the skin which encourages collagen and elastin production
THE RESULTS
Visible results can be noticed after just 6-8 days following a procedure, and you will see further improvement over time.
We usually recommend a course of sessions depending on what skin condition you want to improve. Most of our sessions are every 4-6 weeks, and top up treatments are every 6 months on average to ensure the best and maximum results. The results can last between 3-6 months depending on the skin concern we are targeting and how many sessions you have completed.
