About
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen-induction therapy, is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment available at our Rhiwbina, Cardiff clinic. It uses tiny, controlled micro-injuries to stimulate your skin's natural healing response, increasing collagen and elastin production — the building blocks of smoother, firmer, healthier-looking skin.
It is a safe, minimally invasive procedure that effectively targets texture, tone, scarring, and early signs of ageing, leaving the skin refined and refreshed.

The Process
What To Expect
During your microneedling treatment, the skin is cleansed and prepared before a sterile, medical-grade device is passed gently over the treatment area alongside a serum or exosomes. Most clients describe the sensation as a light prickling feeling. A soothing moisturiser is applied afterward to support healing and hydration.
Mild redness, warmth, and tightness are normal for up to 72 hours, similar to a light sunburn. Makeup should be avoided for 24 hours, and SPF is essential after treatment. Visible improvements typically begin within 2–4 weeks, with optimal results seen after a course of sessions. Course length will be discussed and determined during your first treatment consultation, depending on the aim of the treatment.

FAQ
Common Questions
Does microneedling hurt?
Most clients describe microneedling as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. You may feel a light prickling sensation, but the treatment is very tolerable. A soothing moisturiser is applied afterward to calm the skin and support healing.
How long does it take to see results from microneedling?
Skin typically begins to look brighter and smoother within 2-4 weeks, with full collagen-boosting results appearing over the next 6-12 weeks. For best results, many clients choose a course of 3-6 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Is there any downtime after microneedling?
Microneedling has minimal downtime. Expect mild redness and tightness for up to 72 hours, similar to a light sunburn. You can return to most normal activities straight away, but it's important to avoid makeup, intense exercise, and heat for 24 hours. Daily SPF is essential while the skin heals.
What skin concerns does microneedling help with?
Microneedling is effective for acne scars, fine lines, pigmentation, large pores, stretch marks, uneven texture, and dullness. It boosts collagen and improves the overall tone and resilience of the skin, making it suitable for a wide range of complexion concerns.
Is microneedling safe for all skin types?
Yes, microneedling is generally safe for most skin types when performed professionally. During your consultation, we'll assess your skin to ensure the treatment is suitable and tailor your session for the best possible results.
