At The Face Place Inverness, our microneedling treatment offers a non-surgical, highly effective solution for a range of skin concerns, including wrinkles, sun damage, pigmentation, scarring, and stretch marks. Using advanced technology, we help stimulate your skin’s natural healing process, restoring youthful vitality from the inside out.
Microneedling uses a small, hand-held device fitted with fine surgical needles to create thousands of tiny micro-injuries on the surface of your skin. These controlled injuries stimulate collagen and elastin production—key elements in maintaining youthful, firm, and smooth skin. Without causing visible damage, the treatment encourages natural skin repair, leading to a fresher, more radiant complexion.
Backed by clinical studies, microneedling is a proven treatment for various skin conditions, often outperforming alternatives such as dermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser resurfacing. It delivers significant results by thickening the skin, smoothing scars, and minimizing wrinkles—naturally.
While at-home rollers exist, they cannot match the benefits of practitioner-only microneedling. Our trained professionals use precise needle depths to achieve maximum results, minimizing risks and ensuring a safe, effective treatment. Your safety is paramount, and we strictly follow all hygiene protocols to prevent infection and ensure optimal results.
Is Microneedling Right for You?
Microneedling is a safe treatment for most, but certain conditions can make it unsuitable. You should avoid microneedling if you have any active infections, a history of abnormal scarring (such as keloid), are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have poorly controlled medical conditions. Those taking medications that affect bleeding, like aspirin or warfarin, may also need to reconsider.
Before the procedure, a topical anaesthetic is applied to numb the skin, ensuring your comfort throughout the treatment. The microneedling session typically lasts 20 to 30 minutes. As the microneedling device gently glides across your skin, micro-columns are created in the dermis, which close quickly, allowing for rapid recovery.
What to Expect After Treatment:
Immediately following the procedure, your body begins regenerating and repairing the skin below the surface. Over the next several weeks, you’ll notice a gradual improvement as collagen production increases, skin cells regenerate, and blood supply improves. While the treated area may feel sensitive and appear red for a couple of days, you can expect a smoother, more youthful appearance within six weeks, with continued improvement over several months.
