Skin needling (collagen induction therapy) uses a sterile device with fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. This triggers the skin's natural repair process, supporting collagen production and improving the appearance of texture, fine lines, scarring and pigmentation.

Our Fusion treatment combines skin needling with professional serums selected for your skin's needs. The micro-channels allow the serums to work more effectively, supporting hydration, brightness and renewal.

It may help with uneven texture, enlarged pores, fine lines, acne scarring, pigmentation and dull skin. Suitability is always assessed at your consultation.

Skin needling may not be suitable if you:

• are pregnant or breastfeeding
• have active acne, infection, cold sores or open wounds in the area
• have used isotretinoin (e.g. Roaccutane) in the past 6 months
• have a history of keloid scarring
• have flare-ups of eczema, psoriasis or rosacea
• have uncontrolled diabetes, a bleeding disorder, or take blood-thinning medication
