What is Microneedling Treatment?

Microneedling (also known as skin needling or percutaneous collagen induction therapy) is a minimally invasive treatment that involves creating precise, microscopic punctures in the stratum corneum of your skin with small needles.

These “micro-injuries” act by encouraging the skin to heal itself naturally through a process known as dermal remodelling; without causing any scars.

Clinical Collagen Induction Therapy

As the ageing process begins, your skin’s collagen levels start to decline. However, when your skin is in the healing and repairing mode, new and more collagen can be created.

Using your body’s self-healing response, microneedling procedure boosts the collagen production (the elastic fibres that make skin firmer, smoother, and rejuvenated).

A board certified dermatologist or aesthetic practitioner carries out this minimally non invasive skin treatment with needles to resurface your skin for a youthful skin rejuvenation that gets compliments.

What is a Microneedling Facial?

Medical Skin Needling, using Derma roller UK, is one of the most requested facials by younger patients as well as mature men and women and suitable for many skin types.

From correcting acne scars and stretch marks to stimulating collagen and speeding up the process of cell renewal, microneedles facial has proven to be a skin multi tasker.

Moreover, this under 60 minutes treatment rejuvenates the skin by creating many micro channels through your skin, which help the topical products and active skincare to penetrate deeper into your skin effectively.

As your skin heals, there is a boost in the collagen and elastin, giving an almost instant plumped up and firming effect to an aging skin.

How Does Microneedling Work?

After applying a topical numbing cream, the skin is thoroughly cleansed. The eDermastamp single-use, sterile needle microneedling device is then set to the correct speed, needle lengths and depth for the treatment area and moved over the skin to create many microscopic channels.

With microneedling treatment, the depth is within the papillary dermal layer of the skin, where collagen and elastin fibres are located.

The tiny holes close over almost immediately as the channels are small.

The ‘micro tears’ to the dermis encourages the skin to repair itself by activating skin’s healing process and promoting collagen production and elastin and generating new skin cells.

This results in thicker, plumper and more youthful skin without any significant downtime.

Microneedling Benefits

Corrects Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Collagen and elastin are crucial skin proteins that give firmness and resilience to your aging skin, hence, a youthful appearance.

More research done on in office treatments such as PRP and collagen induction therapy shows that the skin healing processes promote your body to develop new skin cells. These visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines.

Addresses Sun Damage

Microneedling facial can help improve the appearance of sun damage, such as dark patches due to hyperpigmentation as well as age spots. You may need multiple treatments to see visible improvements in your skin condition. Patients with darker skin tones can also greatly benefit from the signs of sun damage including fine lines and wrinkles.

If you suffer from a blotchy, uneven complexion due to too much sun exposure, microneedling procedure renews skin cells and revitalises your entire complexion and even out skin tone.

Reverses Hair Loss & Boosting Hair Growth

Topical skin treatments when performed in combination with microneedling have shown to improve skin penetration.

Microneedling may be done prior to applying minoxidil, a medication used to treat common hair loss (androgenic alopecia, affecting both men and women). Platelet Rich Plasma is also a powerful hair follicle boosting treatment, widely requested at CosmeDocs.

Fading Acne & Acne Scars

Microneedling helps to minimise scars from injuries or acne by breaking down scar tissue and encouraging skin protein, collagen to restore its surface. Most people achieve visible improvement with a series of derma roller for acne scars as well as other scars.

Minimises Large Open Pores

Even though this non-invasive procedure requires creating micro tears in your skin, the treatment has no effect on the size of your pores.

It actually makes your pores seem smaller. This is because the collagen around your pores is boosted, and the skin around each pore renews, practically shrinking the enlarged pores.

Rejuvenating Hands, Neck and Décolletage

The superficial layers of the skin are renewed to rebuild their collagen and rejuvenate the skin of the neck, hands and decolletage. This is due to micro tears using the Derma roller UK or the Dermapen.

When done in combination with skincare products, the skin can absorb the nutrients and goodness of the skincare routine effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I see results from microneedles facial?

The majority of our patients have skin improvements and desired results within the first week of therapy. Early results typically consist of better skin texture, skin tone, and look of acne. However, the time it takes for individual patients to see effects may vary especially based on their personal skin concerns.

Patients usually begin to fully experience the results four to six weeks after therapy. Again, some patients could take more time to experience visible effects.

Experts at CosmeDocs advise limiting your sun exposure and maintaining a healthy skincare routine at least two weeks before your visit for the best results.

This means using a powerful sunscreen and cleaning and moisturising twice daily. You can also use hyaluronic acid in your skincare routine to aid the healing process. We advise doing this since a healthy skin will show the maximum benefits.

Is microneedling treatment safe?

In a word, absolutely! You should visit a certified clinic with skilled practitioners and experts who always ensure the safety of the patients. Only medical professionals with years of expertise perform microneedles facial in a sterile clinical environment.

At CosmeDocs skin rejuvenation clinic, only strict medical guidelines are followed. Our goal is to make you feel skin confident when you leave with an assurance that the treatments will be completely safe.

Does microneedling hurt?

Before performing microneedling treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure that any pain is minimised. Moreover, you must avoid using any chemical peels, laser hair removal, waxing or any other invasive cosmetic procedure after your session in order to prevent skin sensitivity and irritation.

What is microneedling price UK?

The microneedling cost UK at CosmeDocs starts from £150 for the first session.

Also, it is important to note that depending on the area being treated, skin concerns and the multiple treatments needed, the microneedling cost may differ accordingly.

In order to get an accurate price estimate for treatment, it is advised to speak with a skilled and experienced practitioner.

How microneedling helps hair growth?

Other benefits of microneedling include hair loss treatment with microneedling. In this procedure the scalp is pricked with small needles using a safe device at CosmeDocs. These micro injuries activate the skin’s healing process. As a result, there is an increase the formation of growth factors, which can assist to rejuvenate hair follicles and encourage the hair rejuvenation.

What benefits can I get from microneedling facial?

Skin needling at a doctor’s office is far more superior and safer than at home microneedling. The microneedles therapy delivers a range of skin benefits such as:

  • Reducing the look of most obvious signs of ageing such as wrinkles, fine lines and uneven skin tone.
  • The micro perforations created by the tiny needles in the microneedling pen corrects the look of post acne scarring, surgical scars and stretch marks.
  • Skin treatment with needles is ideal for improving a blotchy and sun damaged skin.
  • Male and female patients seeking anti ageing solutions can benefit from this therapy especially for mild sagging skin and dull complexion with age.
  • Many patients have achieved a smoother texture of skin with 3 to 5 sessions of microneedling treatment.
  • You can also boost the efficacy of your topical treatments and help them penetrate deep into your skin.
  • Most people with darker skin tone can equally benefit from this procedure without any risk.

Are there any side effects of microneedles facial?

Microneedling treatment is minimally invasive and completely safe for anyone who does not have any severe skin conditions or health concerns. Secondly, to minimise any pain during the procedure, experts apply a numbing cream to ensure a smooth skin rejuvenating experience for you.

However, there may be some temporary side effects of the treatment, such as:

  • Skin irritation, including mild redness and swelling.
  • Pinpoint bleeding
  • Peeling or flaking
  • Occasional bruising is among the few possible adverse effects.

However, such side effects of this non surgical skin treatment are temporary and tend to go away on their own, ranging from a few hours to a few days. If your skin irritation does not settle, kindly visit your dermatologist’s office immediately.

Who is not suitable for microneedling therapy?

Experts at CosmeDocs do not advise the procedure within 2 weeks of other injectables such as Dermal fillers or Botox. However, it can be performed after this period.

On the other hand, microneedling facial is generally regarded as safe for most people. However, there are some candidates who may not be ideal for this non invasive treatment.

We are mentioning some of the most common conditions below that may not render you suitable for the skin therapy:

  • Raised moles and skin tags are avoided during a treatment.
  • Skin conditions such as rosacea, eczema and psoriasis.
  • Actinic (solar) keratosis.
  • Keloid or raised scarring.
  • Warts or Herpes
  • Active acne
  • Scars less than 6 months old.
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
  • Active skin infection such as a cold sore.
  • Scleroderma and collagen vascular diseases.
  • Patients receiving ongoing cancer treatment and those with moderately to severely devastating chronic conditions such blood coagulation and bleeding disorders.
  • Other medical conditions such as immunosuppression and diabetes.

How long does microneedling take?

The duration of each micro needling session should be between 10 and 30 minutes. In order to achieve the maximum results, experts at CosmeDocs advise patients to undergo 4-6 microneedling treatments.

It is important to remember that your skin takes sufficient time for collagen production, hence, you may need to wait for your skin to repair itself completely to notice results. Moreover, a minimum of one month should pass between sessions to provide the skin sufficient time to recover completely.

How many sessions of microneedling will I need?

In order to enjoy the benefits of microneedling, you may need to book multiple micro needling sessions every 4 to 6 weeks. Most people likely need 3 to 6 treatments if you want to lessen acne scars.

Moreover, the suggested starting point for collagen induction is usually three sessions. Whereas 3 microneedling therapies may be effective if you have hyperpigmentation.

However, there should be a four to six-week interval between each session.
