When it comes to achieving radiant, youthful skin, one treatment has become a favourite in advanced aesthetics — microneedling. This minimally invasive procedure is designed to rejuvenate your skin naturally by stimulating collagen production and improving overall texture. At Skinstitute in Sandton, microneedling is one of our most sought-after treatments for clients looking for visible, long-lasting results.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves the use of fine, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These tiny punctures trigger the body’s natural healing process, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin — the key building blocks for smooth, firm, and youthful skin.
The Benefits of Microneedling
Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Stimulates collagen to smooth out signs of ageing.
Improves Skin Texture: Helps with rough or uneven skin for a softer, healthier look.
Minimises Acne Scars: Breaks down scar tissue and promotes skin renewal.
Reduces Hyperpigmentation: Helps fade dark spots and sun damage.
Tightens and Firms Skin: Improves elasticity, leaving the skin looking lifted and refreshed.
Enhances Product Absorption: Prepares your skin to better absorb serums and active ingredients.
