Skin & Facial Treatments

Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that uses minute sterile needles to make controlled tiny punctures in the skin surface. The process triggers the natural healing cells in the skin to produce collagen and elastin. Youthful skin relies on collagen to make it strong, and elastin to make it supple. In ageing skin, collagen and elastin production start to decline. Microneedling reverses this process by stimulating both collagen and elastin synthesis from within the cells

Will it hurt?

To minimise discomfort a numbing cream is applied before the treatment. During the treatment you may feel vibration and pressure.
