Stimulate Natural Skin Repair for Smoother, Healthier, and Younger-Looking Skin

Microneedling devices positioned on the cheek and forehead

Microneedling is a procedure that stimulates the skin's natural healing process to improve texture, reduce scars, minimize pores, and promote collagen production. It uses specialized device with very fine, sterile needles that creates controlled microscopic channels in the skin. These tiny micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing response, leading to increased production of collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible for firm, smooth, and youthful skin.

Conditions Treated with Microneedling

  • Acne scars
  • Surgical scars
  • Enlarged pores
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Skin ageing
  • Stretch marks (striae)

Benefits of Microneedling

The Microneedling Procedure

A typical session includes:

Step 1 – Consultation

Your skin is examined, and your concerns and treatment goals are discussed.

Step 2 – Skin Preparation

The treatment area is cleansed thoroughly, and a topical anesthetic cream is applied to improve comfort.

Step 3 – Microneedling

A sterile microneedling device is moved over the skin using controlled techniques and appropriate needle depths based on the condition being treated.

Step 4 – Application of Serums

Selected medical-grade serums or growth factor preparations may be applied after the procedure when clinically indicated.

Step 5 – Post-Treatment Care

A soothing moisturizer and sunscreen are applied, and detailed aftercare instructions are provided.

The procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

Recovery After Microneedling

After treatment, you may notice:

  • Mild redness similar to a sunburn
  • Slight swelling
  • Skin tightness

Most patients can resume normal activities within 24–48 hours, although recovery time varies depending on the depth of treatment.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

The number of sessions depends on your skin concern.

Typical recommendations include:

  • Acne scars: 4–6 sessions
  • Skin rejuvenation: 3–5 sessions
  • Stretch marks: 4–8 sessions
  • Fine lines: 3–6 sessions

Sessions are usually scheduled every 4–6 weeks to allow adequate collagen remodelling between treatments.

Microneedling Aftercare

For optimal healing:

  • Apply sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure for several days.
  • Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers.
  • Avoid makeup for at least 24 hours unless advised otherwise.
  • Do not use exfoliants, retinoids, or harsh skincare products until your dermatologist recommends restarting them.
  • Avoid swimming pools, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours.
