Microneedling is an advanced treatment that uses the wound healing response to firm the skin, even out tone and texture, and remodel scars.

It involves the use of micro-fine needles that superficially injure the skin in order to kick it into gear and start the healing process. Think of it like when you work out and your muscles get sore, only to grow bigger and stronger.

This wound healing cascade releases growth factors, cytokines, hormones, and a cocktail of other chemicals in the skin that improve cell communication and function, leading to repair, remodeling, and rejuvenation!

As microneedling doesn’t remove or heat the epidermis, it’s considered safe for all skin tones and types. In order to manage the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, we require all clients to be on a pigment inhibiting product for 2-4 weeks beforehand for your safety.

Those who have the following conditions or are taking the following medications are not suitable for microneedling:

• Pregnancy

• Taking blood thinners or St John’s Work supplements

• Heart Medications

• Antihistamines (Within 24 hours of treatment)

• Prone to hypertrophic or keloid scarring

• Unable to avoid excess sun exposure

• Oral acne medication in the last 12 months

• Laser resurfacing in the last 6 months

• Injectables in the last 2 weeks

• Active eczema/dermatitis/psoriasis/rosacea

• Cancer

Realistically, Microneedling is not the most comfortable treatment, but the results make up for it tenfold!

During the treatment, you will hear and feel the buzzing of the handpiece and feel a scratchy or prickly sensation on the treated areas.

After the treatment, your skin will feel a bit tender and be red, like a sunburn. During this time, we will prepare for you a sterile aftercare cream to use for the next 3 days to improve healing and soothe the skin.

You can expect 48-72 hours of recovery in which the skin looks worse before it looks better.

Immediately after the treatment you skin will be a bit red and tender, like a sunburn.

For 24 hours:

• Only apply the sterile recovery cream we supply you with—no other skincare, no makeup, no SPF. This is why we recommend you plan your appointment on day you don’t have to go anywhere and to bring a hat with you.

• After 24 hours, you can use a gentle cleanser, mineral or zinc-based sunscreen, and mineral makeup along with your recovery cream.

• After 72 hours, you can return to normal, gentle skincare as you finish your recovery cream. Wait a full week to use retinol or exfoliants.

• During the recovery period, avoid swimming, excess heat from hot showers or saunas, intensive exercise, and sun exposure.
