Microneedling: The Natural Way to Stimulate Collagen and Transform Your Skin

Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is one of the most effective non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatments available today. It works by stimulating your body’s natural healing response to boost collagen and elastin production — the two key proteins responsible for firm, smooth, youthful skin.

Microneedling involves using a specialist device with ultra-fine, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny channels trigger your body to repair and rebuild — producing fresh collagen and improving overall skin structure.

Unlike injectables or more invasive procedures, microneedling enhances what your skin already does naturally.

Microneedling is incredibly versatile and suitable for a wide range of concerns, including:

Because it strengthens the skin from within, results continue to improve for weeks after treatment.

From around age 25, collagen production naturally declines. This leads to:

Microneedling reactivates your skin’s repair process. The controlled micro-injuries signal your body to send growth factors and fibroblasts to the area — producing new collagen fibres and improving elasticity.

Over time, skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more resilient.

A professional microneedling treatment typically includes:

At Changing Faces, microneedling is performed in a professional clinical environment with strict hygiene protocols and fully tailored treatment plans.

Because of the team’s extensive background in permanent makeup, skin anatomy and corrective treatments, every microneedling session is delivered with precision and an advanced understanding of skin structure.

This is particularly beneficial for clients with:

Treatments are customised to your skin goals — whether you’re targeting acne scarring, improving overall skin quality, or wanting a collagen boost before a big event.

A full consultation is carried out prior to treatment to assess suitability and create a structured plan for optimal results.

While you may notice brighter, fresher skin after just one session, optimal results typically require a course of 3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

For acne scarring or deeper lines, additional sessions may be recommended.

When performed by a trained professional using sterile, medical-grade equipment, microneedling is safe and effective for most skin types.

It is not recommended for:

A full consultation ensures the treatment is tailored safely to your skin.

At-home dermarollers do not penetrate deeply enough to stimulate significant collagen production — and improper use can damage skin.

Professional microneedling devices allow controlled needle depth, precision, and enhanced safety — delivering real, long-term results.
