Microneedling
Microneedling (AKA collagen induction therapy) utilises microscopic needles that help boost collagen production and growth factors in your skin through controlled injury. This will improve the appearance, texture, and overall quality of your skin, as well as improve scalp health to stimulate hair growth. The use of microneedling with specialised mesoserums make it possible to address a wide range of skin concerns such as hyperpigmentation, dehydration, stretch marks, scars, rosacea, pores, hair loss, and many more. Through vertical penetration of multiple sterile needles, tiny channels are created through the dermis to effectively infuse medical-grade active ingredients in your skin whilst synthesising collagen and elastin. Your treatment mesoserum is completely customised to treat your goals, whether it be anti-aging, brightening, hydration, or problematic skin.

Other rare, potential complications include ptosis or asymmetry, which can occur if surrounding muscles are affected. This can last up to 4-8 weeks before resolving on its own.
