MEDICAL SKIN NEEDLING WHAT IS SKIN NEEDLING? & HOW DOES IT WORK? Skin needling is a safe and increasingly popular skin renewal technique to restore the healthy youthful appearance of your skin.  Skin needling produces comparable results to other techniques such as lasers, dermabrasion and deep chemical peels, but is much less invasive, does not remove the skin surface and has minimal or zero downtime. The concept of skin needling is based on the skins own natural ability to repair itself whenever it encounters physical damage such as cuts, burns etc.  Skin needling allows for the controlled induction of the skins self - repair mechanism by creating micro - injuries which trigger new collagen production, yet does not pose the risk of permanent scarring. WILL IT HURT? There is an amount of associated pain but this can be alleviated WHAT RESULTS WILL I SEE? Straight after treatment there will be some redness and you will have a flushed appearance - similar to mild sunburn, you may also experience skin tightness and mild sensitivity to touch.  This will diminish greatly after a few hours following treatment and within the next 48 hours your skin will be completely healed and looking great! HOW OFTEN IS TREATMENT RECOMMENDED? Every 2-3 months WHERE CAN BE TREATED? Skin Needling is one of the few therapies that is suitable for use on all skin types including ethnic skin and the sensitive skin around the eyes, mouth, hands, neck and decolletage.  Treatment can also be used for enlarged pores, acne and chicken pox scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, lack of skin firmness and elasticity , sun damage, pigmentation, stretch marks and cellulite
