MICRO NEEDLING
Micro needling is a non invasive procedure that uses an electronic device with multiple tiny sterile needles to create controlled trauma. This then causes your body to naturally heal and produce more collagen and elastin.
Micro needling benefits include:
- Stimulating collagen production
- Improving skin texture and tone
- Reducing appearance of large pores
- Improves acne scaring
- Reduces appearance of fine lines & wrinkles
- Improves pigmentation
- Plumper, firmer skin
This treatment will be carried out by our skin specialist.
When coming to your appointment with The Aesthetic Collective, you will initially be greeted & welcomed into clinic.
Prior to your procedure you will have a full consultation where we will assess the skin and ensure you are suitable for micro needling. We will discuss the treatment and also cover any questions you may have and what to expect from your treatment.
Once you are happy, we will cleanse the area and apply a topical anaesthetic to numb the area for your comfort during procedure.
Once the procedure is complete we will go over the aftercare and what to expect after the treatment.
You can expect to have redness , possible short term swelling and skin flaking post treatment.
Your skin will also be more sensitive to sunlight so an SPF is a must!
Full results should be seen 4-6 weeks after having micro needling.
To maximise and maintain the results from micro needling we advise several regular treatments, this will be discussed in your consultation to meet your individual needs depending on your skin type and concerns.
We advise clients to fill out our online skin survey prior to your appointment so we can get an understanding of your skin and skin goals, this can be filled out at:
