What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is an advanced skin treatment designed to stimulate your skin’s natural repair response by creating controlled micro-channels within the skin using ultra-fine needles. This process encourages collagen and elastin production — two essential proteins responsible for keeping skin firm, smooth and healthy-looking.

Over time, factors such as stress, inflammation, UV exposure, breakouts and ageing can slow down the skin’s ability to renew itself. Microneedling works by encouraging the skin to regenerate from within, helping to improve overall skin quality rather than simply treating the surface.

What can Microneedling help with?

Microneedling is suitable for a wide range of skin concerns, including:

• Post-breakout marks and acne scarring

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Uneven skin texture

• Enlarged pores

• Pigmentation and sun damage

• Dull, tired skin

• Loss of firmness and elasticity

• Overall skin rejuvenation

The goal is not to completely change your face, it is to strengthen, restore and improve and support the health and quality of your skin so you feel more confident in it.

Dermalogica Pro Microneedling + Pro Restore

Your treatment includes Dermalogica’s professional Microneedling protocol alongside Pro Restore, a professional-strength formula designed to support skin recovery and strengthen the skin barrier following treatment.

Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries within the skin to trigger renewal, and Pro Restore helps support this healing process by calming the skin and helping reduce downtime while reinforcing barrier function.

This combination allows the skin to recover more efficiently while supporting:

• smoother skin texture

• improved hydration

• stronger barrier function

• enhanced skin resilience

• visible skin rejuvenation

Unlike aggressive treatments that can leave skin compromised, the Dermalogica approach focuses on achieving results while still protecting long-term skin health.

Every treatment is tailored depending on:

• your skin condition

• sensitivity levels

• inflammation

• lifestyle

• long-term goals

Because healthy skin always responds better over time.

What does Microneedling feel like?

Many clients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. Areas with thinner skin may feel more sensitive, but the treatment is designed to remain controlled and tolerable.

After treatment, the skin may appear:

• pink or flushed

• warm

• slightly tight

• mildly dry

This is a normal response and part of the skin’s healing process.

Why consistency matters

Microneedling is not a “one treatment and done” facial.

Collagen production takes time, which is why a course of treatments is often recommended depending on your skin goals.

The most transformative results happen when treatments are combined with:

• consistency

• the right homecare

• barrier support

• internal and external lifestyle considerations

This is why consultations are so important.

Your skin journey should feel personalised, not confusing or trend-led.
