Skin Needling Maroubra
Get that youthful complexion you’ve been after with skin needling at Skinnovation Laser Clinic in Maroubra. Skin needling is an efficient and safe way to achieve clearer and healthier looking skin.
Also known as micro-needling and collagen induction therapy, skin needling is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure. It is considered a facial rejuvenation treatment and is used for reducing acne and surgical scars, scars resulting from burns, stretch marks, deep wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation, as well as for tightening any sagging or stretched skin.
Our clinic is located in the heart of the eastern suburbs, in Pacific Square Shopping Centre in Maroubra.
About the Procedure
At Skinnovation Laser Clinic we use Dermapen 4 device to perform the skin needling procedure.
Skin needling sessions take between 30 and 60 minutes. During this time, our therapists utilise a the Dermapen 4, which features microneedles. The device is moved over the skin to create miniature punctures that slightly damage the outermost layer of the skin.
During the treatment, these minor injuries to the skin may cause minimal bleeding which then triggers the skin to self-heal. As a result, it produces greater amounts of elastin and collagen, thus forming new capillaries. This neocollagenesis and neovascularization help plump out wrinkles, fine lines, and scars, improving skin hydration, texture, and firmness. This also aids in the treatment of pigmentation differences, enlarged pores, and stretch marks.
The procedure can be done from home but the clinical treatment is far more effective and safer, so the trip down to Skinnovation in Maroubra is worth it.
Skin Needling Benefits
Skin needling is considered to be one of the safest skin treatments, as it is minimally-invasive and non-ablative, causing minimal damage to the skin. It is well-tolerated by the majority of patients, regardless of their skin type and tone.
It is also widely popular due to its effectiveness and the fact that there is almost no recovery time – in some cases, patients may notice mild redness.
Rest assured that our team is certified to perform skin needling, and will make sure that the process is done correctly and in a way that is best for your personal skin type. When you arrive at our clinic we’ll make sure that you’re well informed of the process and receive quality customer service by our friendly staff and professionals. That’s why our customers come from all over the eastern suburbs, including Maroubra.
Skin needling is also a great alternative to laser resurfacing or peeling, especially for areas on which these treatments cannot usually be performed.
Who are the Candidates for Skin Needling
Skin needling is appropriate for any skin type and colour. Anyone who wishes to minimise the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, pigmentation, or wants to tighten their sagging skin is encouraged to schedule an appointment with Skinnovation Laser Clinic. We will assess your needs, take a look at your skin and the concerns you may have to provide advice on the best approach for maximum results.
Preparation, Recovery, and Results
On the day of the procedure, the patient should not use any lotions or makeup.
Owing to the fact that skin needling is minimally invasive, the recovery time is minimal. In some cases, patients experience mild redness, scaling, dryness or mild swelling around the treated area, which usually fades quickly. The therapist at Skinnovation Laser Clinic will advise you on the best post-treatment care regime for your skin type that will yield the most optimal results. These may include the application of sunscreen or the use of a gentle cleanser.
The speed with which the results will become evident varies for every patient. Rejuvenation can take anywhere between 2 weeks and 6 months after the procedure. Consistent treatment is best in order to achieve the best outcome. When it comes to burn scars, the skin response is rather slow and will take between 6 months and 1 year to see the final result of the treatment.
Skin needling can be repeated after a minimum of four to six weeks. During this time, the treated area of the skin will start forming natural collagen. The number of procedures you may need to minimise or completely get rid of the concerns you may have will depend on the issues at hand and will be assessed by our specialists.
