Before Treatment

Before the treatment can start, we will assess your current state of the skin. If you are visiting us for the first time, please allow an additional hour for our complete Facial Imaging Skin Assessment.

You will be required to give consent for treatment by signing the 'Informed Consent' form. This way, we can make sure that you can undergo Deep Needling and have no present conditions which are contraindicated with this procedure.

Please note that skin numbing is required for this treatment (numbing cream is available for purchase over the counter at a pharmacy). During your skin consultation, your Skin Therapist will give you detailed instructions on the numbing procedure.

During Treatment

You will be comfortably lying down. Your Skin Therapist will use an electro hand-held device, specifically targeting the scarred tissue in order to induce more collagen and elastin production in those areas. These processes help to rebuild the skin tissue and to smooth and even out the appearance of the scars.

During treatment, you might experience very mild tingling, but most of the clients do not experience any discomfort. Minimal surface bleeding might be present.

After Treatment

Deep Skin Needling is generally well-tolerated, but some clients might experience tenderness, dryness, scaling, or redness, lasting for up to 4 days.

The effects of a single treatment might be seen as soon as two weeks following treatment. Please note that some scars, especially burn scars, are slow to respond, and it may take up to six months (or rarely longer) to see results from a single treatment.

It is particularly important to apply sun protection regularly for several weeks following treatment.

You will likely require multiple Deep Needling treatments to achieve your desired results. Ideally, a gap of 4 weeks is recommended between two treatments; although the newly formed collagen and elastin can take 10 - 12 weeks to fully mature, monthly treatments will continue to stimulate collagen and elastin production.
