Skin Needling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, is a skin rejuvenation procedure that is minimally invasive and utilises a specially crafted machine to create controlled micro insertions into the skin to initiate and stimulate the natural healing response encouraging renewal and repair of the skin.
This procedure has become so popular because it can induce collagen production while keeping the top layer of your skin intact. Not only is this procedure incredibly effective, it is also very affordable. If you are looking to stimulate the natural production of collagen without breaking the bank, this is the perfect solution for you.
We use the world's best technology for our skin needling treatments, Dermapen. The mechanical device rotates the needles at such a fast rate and penetrates the skin at precise depths minimising the discomfort other devices on the market simply cannot achieve.
Conditions treatable with Skin needling include:
-
Wrinkles, scars, post acne scars
-
Pigmentation
-
Stretch marks
-
Skin texture
-
Enlarged pores
-
Is there any downtime?There is roughly a minimum of 10 days downtime after plasma fibroblast treatment where small dots will be visible.

How soon before or after cosmetic injections can I have a Plasma Treatment?It is recommended to wait at least 7 days before or after cosmetic injections so that any post-treatment bruising can settle.
-
How long before I see results?Many clients see results within a couple of days and further improvement to treated areas at six weeks. Full results are revealed 3 months post treatment.
-
Does Plasma treatment hurt?Plasma pen treatment is uncomfortable. We recommend you come to your appointment pre-numbed with a topical numbing cream. Some numbing creams can take up to 40 minutes to take full effect. If applying at home, make sure you have allowed enough time for the numbing to take effect prior to your appointment time.
