The tool is a small pen with a number of tiny surgical needles within its head. It is moved over the skin to create numerous micro injuries the full depth of the skin.
Micro-needling is an advanced skin-needling procedure that stimulates the skin to regenerate and repair itself safely and naturally. Micro-needles are able to part the pores of the top layer of the skin without damaging it. This naturally stimulates collagen and elastin production in the skin and is safe to use on different areas of the body for smoother, brighter, healthier and younger looking skin. This is a simple and safe treatment.
Find out more about the micro-needling treatment process and what you can expect at Rediscovered Skin Clinic.
We assess your skin concerns – whether that’s texture, breakouts, early ageing, or dullness – to ensure microneedling is the right starting point for your skin.
Your skin is cleansed and numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. We’ll talk through the treatment and tailor the depth depending on your skin.
Tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen and encourage natural repair. It improves texture, tone, and overall skin quality over time.
Skin will look red and feel warm for 24–48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. As it heals, you’ll notice fresher, smoother, more even-looking skin.

The needles are long enough to assist in the penetration of your skincare product, but will not damage the skin or scalp in any way. It is normal for the skin or scalp to be a little sensitive when micro-needling is first commenced, but most people report no problems after a few days.
Yes micro-needling can be used on veins close to the surface of the skin. Micro-needling helps to break up larger blood vessels and can be used to crisscross the dilated blood vessels, disrupting them like this promotes their disappearance. Healing is usually complete in a few days and treatments may be repeated at monthly intervals as needed.
No, it will make the acne spread.
All skin is different so we can’t give a definite time for this, however your skin will feel lighter, tighter and brighter almost immediately. When treating scars or wrinkles you will see results each week as the skin changes and collagen re-grows.
The reason it is said not to have micro-needling when pregnant, lactating and feeding is that the body needs all of its vitamins to feed the baby. As the production of new collagen uses some vitamins, it is best not to have this treatment at this time.
All areas of the face, neck and body can be treated.
If you have any type of herpes virus, dormant or otherwise you cannot have micro-needling on that area. When treating above lip lines, if you have suffered from cold sores in the past your practitioner will make sure the micro-needler does not touch the lips or the cold sores will flare again. Facial warts if dormant may not flare when having micro-needling but it is not worth the risk.
