ABOUT MESO SKIN NEEDLING
Skin Needling is a micro-needling system also known as CIT (collagen induction therapy) that helps to reduce the signs of ageing, improve the appearance of acne scars, large pores, uneven skin texture, pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles.
Micro-needling creates thousands of micro-injuries in the skin to trigger the body’s natural wound healing process. This assists the promotion of collagen and elastin, these two proteins makeup the skins scaffolding and extremely important for youthful looking skin.
Skin needling treatments can be performed all year round with no risk of treating over the sunny months, unlike laser treatments. It can also be performed on all skin types from fair to dark skins and all body areas including face, neck, décolletage, hands and stretch marks on the body.

– Clients who have been taking Roaccutane (6 months after finishing dose)

Initially post treatment your skin will be slightly red like you have had a little too much sun, this normally lasts for around 24 hours with it being worst during the initial hour following treatment. Most people find that the redness has calmed down significantly by the following day and are able to wear a light makeup to cover any residual redness. At day 3-4 slight dryness and flaking may occur and at this stage we would advise doing some light exfoliation with “fruit enzymes” an Aspect Dr product that we sell in the clinics. We would advise not to exercise or use a sauna for 24 hours following the treatment.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
