Your Consultation
Having an aesthetic procedure for the first time can be daunting. That’s why, at The Dermal Skin Laundry, we believe the consultation is probably the most important part of a patient’s journey and should never be under-estimated. At your consultation, one of our highly skilled team members will discuss your aesthetic needs and concerns with you and carry out a thorough skin assessment. Your consultation will take place in private, in a very relaxed and informal atmosphere.

Skin Needling
What is skin needling, and how does it work?
Skin needling, also known as microneedling, is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a small device with tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the skin’s natural healing process, increasing collagen production and improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars.

Skin needling can cause some discomfort, but most patients tolerate the treatment well with the use of topical numbing creams or local anesthesia.
How long does a skin needling treatment session last?
The length of a skin needling treatment session depends on the size of the treatment area and the individual’s goals. Most sessions take between 30 minutes to an hour.
What are the potential side effects of skin needling?
The most common side effects of skin needling are redness and mild swelling, which typically subside within a few days. In rare cases, patients may experience bleeding, infection, or scarring.
How many skin needling sessions are required to see results?
The number of skin needling sessions required to see results depends on the individual’s skin concerns and goals. Typically, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced several weeks apart are recommended for optimal results.
Can skin needling be combined with other skin treatments?
Yes, skin needling can be combined with other skin treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser therapy to enhance the results.
Who is a good candidate for skin needling?
Skin needling is a safe and effective treatment for most people looking to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin tone. However, it may not be suitable for those with certain medical conditions or skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. A consultation with a qualified practitioner is recommended to determine if skin needling is right for you.
