What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This innovative treatment stimulates your body's natural healing process, promoting increased collagen and elastin production to reveal smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

Safe for all skin types and tones, microneedling offers significant improvements with minimal downtime, making it an ideal choice for busy professionals seeking effective skin rejuvenation without the risks associated with laser treatments or chemical peels.

How it Works

During microneedling treatment, a specialised device containing rows of ultra-fine, medical-grade needles is gently moved across the treatment area. These needles create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin, reaching depths of 0.5-2.5mm depending on your specific skin concerns and treatment goals.

The controlled micro-injuries trigger your skin's natural wound healing cascade, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin fibres. This process, called neocollagenesis, continues for several months following treatment, gradually improving skin texture, tone, and firmness.

The micro-channels created during microneedling provide a unique opportunity to dramatically enhance treatment outcomes through targeted product infusion. These microscopic pathways allow therapeutic serums, growth factors, and regenerative treatments like PRP/PRF to penetrate up to 200% more effectively than traditional topical application. By combining microneedling with specialised add-on treatments, we can deliver potent active ingredients directly to the deeper layers of skin where they're most needed, maximising your results and accelerating the healing and rejuvenation process.

At Vellia Aesthetics, we use state-of-the-art, medical-grade microneedling devices that ensure precise needle depth and optimal safety. Each treatment is customised to your individual skin type and concerns, ensuring maximum efficacy while maintaining the highest safety standards.
