At Skintopia, we know you want the best for your skin. Microneedling is an advanced treatment that can elevate your skincare routine, and we’re here to share everything you need to know.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling involves using a device with ultra-fine needles to create tiny micro-injuries in the skin. This process kickstarts your body’s natural healing response, leading to improved texture, increased firmness, and enhanced elasticity.
Is Microneedling Painful?
While microneedling may not be the most comfortable treatment—especially over bony areas like the nose and forehead—our skilled skin therapists use effective techniques to minimise discomfort. At Skintopia, we believe in a gentle yet effective approach, ensuring you achieve remarkable results with minimal skin trauma. You might experience a sensation similar to mild sunburn on the day of your treatment, but we’ll guide you through what to expect.
Will My Skin Bleed During the Treatment?
A little bleeding can occur during microneedling, particularly if we’re addressing deeper concerns like lines or scarring. In these cases, deeper penetration may lead to slight pinpoint bleeding. However, for more superficial treatments aimed at improving texture, bleeding is less likely. Remember, your genetics can also play a role in this!
What Products Do We Use During Microneedling?
At Skintopia, we exclusively use Dermalogica’s Pro Restore—a professional recovery and firming concentrate. This powerful formula is designed to enhance your microneedling experience, supporting your skin before, during, and after the treatment. Pro Restore is trusted by Medi-Spa centers worldwide for its ability to reduce downtime and optimise results.
Can I Enhance My Microneedling Experience?
Absolutely! Consider adding one of these services:
- Cooling Biocellulose Masque: This soothing sheet masque reduces post-treatment heat and infuses your skin with 20ml of hydrating serum.
- Red LED Light Therapy: Paired with a professional Light Energy Masque, this combination amplifies the benefits of light therapy for your skin.
- Pro Power Peel: As a prep step before microneedling, this can enhance your results. Speak with your skin therapist to see if it’s right for you.
- The Skin Savior: This ultimate recovery experience combines the Cooling Biocellulose Masque with red LED and Light Energy Masque.
