Microneedling is one of the most popular treatments at Simply Clinics – and for good reason. This minimally invasive procedure is celebrated for its ability to rejuvenate the skin, address a wide range of concerns, and deliver visible, long-lasting results. Whether you’re new to microneedling or considering it as your next skin treatment, this guide covers everything you need to know, including the unique approach we take at Simply Clinics.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a device equipped with tiny, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates your body’s natural healing process, encouraging collagen and elastin production – the building blocks of youthful, healthy skin.
The procedure is versatile and effective for improving:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and other types of scarring
- Stretch marks
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Large pores
The Simply Clinics Difference
At Simply Clinics, we tailor every microneedling session to suit your unique skin type and goals. Our skilled practitioners use advanced iMedpen devices that offer precise, controlled results.
We also combine microneedling with advanced serums, such as growth factors or hyaluronic acid, to boost hydration, accelerate healing, and enhance your skin’s radiance. This customised approach ensures you achieve optimal results with minimal downtime.
Microneedling Techniques: What Suits You Best?
Not all treatments are the same. At Simply Clinics, we offer different microneedling techniques to address specific skin concerns:
- Standard Microneedling: Ideal for overall skin rejuvenation and improving texture and tone.
- Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling: A combination of microneedling with RF energy to tighten the skin, making it an excellent choice for reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
- Body Microneedling: Perfect for treating stretch marks, scars, or areas of loose skin on the body.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Microneedling sessions at Simply Clinics are designed to be as comfortable and effective as possible. After a detailed consultation, your practitioner will cleanse your skin and apply a numbing cream to ensure your comfort. The procedure itself typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Post-treatment, your skin may appear red or feel slightly sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects usually subside within 24–48 hours, leaving your skin feeling firmer, smoother, and more radiant.
