IS SOMETHING NEEDLING YOU?

If not, perhaps it’s time it was, if you want a plumper, more youthful complexion

Micro needling is often described as a gym for your skin, and for good reason.

The treatment can help you get seriously stunning skin, and it’s gaining in popularity worldwide. But why is it so sought after? Micro needling — also known as dermarolling or needling — can reduce pigmentation and scarring, to produce a plumper, more youthful-looking complexion.

Even more appealingly, it can also help minimise the appearance of open pores and wrinkles.

It does this by stimulating your skin’s natural production of collagen like no other treatment around that I know of. But how exactly? Micro needling involves using fine needles to cause micro trauma at a cellular level — tiny holes in your skin — which stimulates your skin to heal itself, a process that produces collagen, which in turn improves your skin’s elasticity, tone and texture.

This is not a new treatment — it is well established and has been conducted in salons for 30 years.

Micro needling is suited for those who would like to make a huge difference to their skin, but appreciate it will not happen overnight.

On average you will need to have around four sessions to see changes in your complexion, but some people have noticed a huge difference after their second treatment.

This treatment is available at Cosmetic Injectables Darwin in Bellamack, which is owned by two local nurses Samantha Hair and Jessica Whalley.

They have 23 years of experience between them in the healthcare industry, ranging from emergency medicine to cosmetic clinics, so you are in good hands.

Both have extensive knowledge, and a true passion for skin health and the desire to help clients feel and look their best.

You can book in for a complimentary consultation, where they will advise you on your individual needs then create a tailored plan suited to you, to help you get the results you want.

Cosmetic Injectables Darwin is located at Shop 4, ‘ONE27’, 123 Flynn Circuit, Bellamack. Call 0484 087 745.
