Microneedling creates thousands of controlled micro-injuries in the skin using very fine needles, triggering a wound-healing response that stimulates collagen and elastin production. It improves fine lines, acne scars, stretch marks, enlarged pores and uneven texture, with minimal downtime compared to ablative treatments. Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines needling with thermal energy for deeper collagen remodelling and is particularly effective for skin laxity and deep acne scarring.
