Skin needling is one of the most effective treatments for long-term skin transformation — but great results don’t happen overnight. Here’s what you can expect in terms of timing, results, and your ideal treatment plan.
How many sessions will I need?
That depends on your concern:
-
Acne scarring or deep texture: 4–6 sessions
-
Pigmentation or sun damage: 3–5 sessions
-
Fine lines, pores, dullness: 3 sessions for maintenance
-
Stretch marks or body scarring: 6+ sessions
Every skin is different, your therapist will personalise your plan after assessing your skin. For best results, we typically space treatments every 4 weeks. We recommend consistent monthly Skin Needling treatments once your concerns have been addressed to continue to improve and maintain your results.
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 achieve dramatic results, but skin needling works best as a consistent treatment. Collagen takes time to remodel, and real change happens over consistent treatments.
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 3–6 months 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:
-
RF Needling (for lifting, tightening and advanced ageing and pigment conerns)LED light therapy (for healing and inflammation)
-
Herbal peels or Blemiderm (for active breakouts)
-
LED light therapy (for healing and inflammation)
We’ll guide you on what to combine and when.
