Microneedling Treatments

Microneedling treatments use ultra fine, sterile, needles to create micro channels into your skin. These micro channels stimulate your skin's healing response to renew your skin cells. As your skin repairs it creates new collagen and elastin to form healthier skin layers that tighten your skin and give it a fresher more even skin complexion.

What are advanced microneedling treatments?

Advanced microneedling treatments combine radiofrequency (RF) and bioactive serums to further improve skin regeneration:

  • RF microneedling - RF energy is used to heat the dermis, at specific depths, and acts as a collagen booster to thicken the dermal layer for plumper, firmer, tighter skin. As the RF energy is delivered below the skin's surface the surrounding epidermis is less affected which allows faster recovery and minimal downtime.
  • Bioactive serums - such as PRP, exosomes and polynucleotides, use the micro channels to infuse, and more effectively reach, the skin cells in the dermis to further stimulate and accelerate skin regeneration. 

What are the benefits of microneedling?

Microneedling treatments are suitable for most people, and are particularly good for darker skin tones because they have less risk of pigmentation complications which can be caused by chemical peels and lasers. Microneedling is commonly used to treat:

  • Skin laxity - collagen booster, to make your skin plumper and firmer, to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Dull skin - stimulating cellular repair to create brighter, fresher and healthier skin.
  • Melasma - delivering bioactive serums to the melasma in the dermis to reduce its appearance.
  • Rosacea - delivering bioactive serums to the dermis to enhance skin barrier function and reduce skin sensitivity.
  • Scarring - breaking up scar tissue and stimulating collagen to create smoother skin texture.
  • Stretch marks - stimulating collagen repair to fade stretch marks.

What is collagen induction therapy?

Collagen induction therapy (and skin needling) are other terms used to describe microneedling.

What is Morpeuse8?

Morpeuse8 is a microneedling device that combines radiofrequency. We use ENDYMED INTENSIF which also combines radiofrequency and microneedling, because we believe it is a superior device that is more comfortably for the patient.

Is microneedling safe?

Microneedling is safe and effective when performed by a regulated clinic and qualified practitioners. Our microneedling treatments are carried out in clinical treatments rooms, using medical protocols and products that have been inspected and approved by Healthcare Improvement Scotland, which means you can be assured that the procedures are very safe.
