Microneedling

Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, Microneedling is a clinically proven skin rejuvenation treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production to reduce fine lines, scarring, and uneven skin tone – all while improving elasticity and restoring your glow.

Best for improving skin texture and tackling early signs of ageing, Microneedling uses a device with fine needles to create tiny microchannels in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, helping to smooth, firm, and refresh the skin from the inside out.

This advanced treatment is suitable for most skin types and is particularly effective for areas with acne scarring, fine lines, pigmentation, and dullness. It also enhances the absorption of targeted serums, boosting hydration and glow.

Many clients see brighter, firmer, more youthful-looking skin within weeks of starting treatment.

Collagen Boosting Power

Microneedling naturally stimulates the production of collagen and elastin – key proteins that help keep skin smooth, firm, and youthful.

Targets Skin Concerns at the Source

Whether you’re dealing with acne scarring, uneven skin tone, fine lines or enlarged pores, microneedling works deep within the skin to visibly improve texture and tone.

Gentle, Effective and Safe

Non-surgical and minimally invasive, microneedling delivers professional-level results with minimal downtime – and it’s suitable for most skin types and concerns.

Using a microneedling device with ultra-fine needles, tiny punctures are created across the surface of the skin. These micro-injuries signal your body to begin the natural repair process, which includes boosting collagen and new cell turnover.

At Totally Transformed, we use a high-grade microneedling system to ensure precision, comfort, and effective results. For added benefit, we may also infuse nourishing serums during or after treatment to enhance skin hydration and glow.

Microneedling is incredibly versatile and can be used to target a variety of skin concerns on the face and body, including:

  • Fine lines and crow’s feet
  • Acne scars and pitted skin
  • Stretch marks
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Dull, tired skin
  • Pigmentation and sun spots
  • Dehydrated or rough skin

You may notice an immediate improvement in skin texture and glow following your treatment. However, the full benefits of microneedling develop gradually as collagen continues to build over several weeks.

For best results, we typically recommend a course of 3–6 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. This allows your skin to fully regenerate and optimise collagen renewal.

Microneedling is a low-downtime treatment, but your skin may feel slightly tight, warm, or flushed for the first day or two.

Top aftercare tips include:

  • Avoid applying makeup or active skincare for 24 hours
  • Use a gentle cleanser and hydrating serum
  • Apply SPF daily to protect healing skin
  • Avoid sun exposure, saunas, and vigorous exercise for 48 hours

We’ll provide a full aftercare guide during your appointment to help you get the most from your treatment.

PROCEDURE TIME

Usually 30–60 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area and whether serums are included.

SENSITIVITY PERIOD

Mild. Skin may feel warm, tight or flushed for 24–48 hours. Most clients resume normal activities the same or next day.

Visible improvements in skin tone and texture often appear after 2–3 weeks. Collagen production continues to increase for up to 3 months.
