Body Microneedling

Microneedling is a non-surgical treatment that uses fine needles to cause micro-traumas that activate the body’s skin-healing protein, collagen, which plumps and lifts the skin. Micro-needling on the body is an effective way of tightening skin after weight loss, healing stretch marks and removing scars. The procedure has very little down time and results can be seen as early as 24hrs after the procedure.

Body Micro-needling on the body is ideal for:

  • Healing Stretch marks
  • Hyper-pigmentation

  • Quick and effective. The procedure can take 15-30 minutes depending on the area that is being treated.

  • Natural looking results
