What to Expect
The treatment is typically well tolerated. Our Dermal Therapist is highly efficient, and takes all care to minimise discomfort during the treatment process. The session lasts around 10–15 minutes, depending on the treatment area. This is then followed by a relaxing, rejuvenating LED session to aid in healing.
After your treatment, you may experience mild redness, sensitivity, or a sunburn-like sensation for 24–48 hours. Most individuals can return to normal activities the next day, though some visible skin shedding may occur in the days following.
Results develop gradually as collagen production improves. For best outcomes, a series of 3–4 treatments spaced several weeks apart is usually recommended, based on your doctor’s assessment.

Skin needling uses fine needles to create micro-channels in the skin, stimulating natural collagen production to support smoother texture and tone. RF needling adds radiofrequency energy to this process, delivering gentle heat below the surface to further support collagen and improve skin firmness. RF is often chosen for concerns like skin laxity or deeper acne scarring, while traditional microneedling is ideal for refining pores and early signs of ageing.
