How many sessions will I need?

That depends on your concern:

  • Acne scarring or deep texture: 6+ sessions

  • Pigmentation or sun damage: 3+ sessions

  • Fine lines, pores, dullness: 3-6 sessions for maintenance

  • Stretch marks or body scarring: 6+ sessions

Everybody's skin is different and your therapist will personalise your plan after assessing your skin. For best results, we typically space treatments every 4 weeks.

When will I see results?

Some clients notice a glow within a few days, but true results develop gradually over 4–12 weeks as collagen rebuilds and skin regenerates.

Expect improvement in:

  • Skin texture and smoothness

  • Pore size

  • Pigmentation clarity

  • Scarring depth

  • Firmness and bounce

Results are cumulative — each session builds on the last.

Is one session enough?

One treatment can give a boost, but skin needling works best as a series. Collagen takes time to remodel, and real change happens over multiple appointments.

We’ll always recommend a course based on your skin goals — whether that’s scarring, ageing, pigmentation, or all of the above.

Do I need to do this forever?

No — think of skin needling like a workout for your skin. Once you've completed your initial course, maintenance treatments every 1–3 months to help preserve results long-term.

Can I alternate this with other treatments?

Absolutely. In fact, combining treatments is often the fastest path to great skin. We may alternate needling with:

  • LED light therapy (for healing and inflammation)

  • Herbal peels or Blemiderm (for active breakouts)

  • RF (for lifting, tightening, and advanced ageing concerns)

  • Exosomes, the latest breakthrough in skin science (for enhanced results)

We’ll guide you on what to combine and when.
