6 Things You Should Know About Skin Needling

Thinking about skin needling but not sure where to start? Here’s a helpful introduction to microneedling, what the process involves, and how it may support your skin goals—guided by medical advice and performed in a clinical setting.

1. What Is Skin Needling?

Skin needling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is a non-surgical treatment that involves the use of a medical microneedling device to create controlled micro-channels in the skin’s surface. This process is designed to encourage the skin’s natural repair mechanisms.

2. What Skin Needling Technology Is Used?

At Dr. Luci Clinic, we use a clinically regulated microneedling device with fine, precision-engineered needles. The device is designed to minimise surface trauma and support consistent results across different skin types. Treatments are performed by qualified professionals in a medical environment.

3. What Concerns May It Help Improve?

Skin needling is commonly used to support skin texture and tone. It may help improve the appearance of:

Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne-related scarring
Stretch marks
Uneven skin tone or pigmentation
Enlarged pores
General skin dullness

Individual outcomes vary and depend on skin condition, age, and post-care adherence. Suitability is always determined after a medical consultation.

4. How Many Sessions Are Needed?

Treatment plans are tailored based on individual skin goals and medical history. During your consultation, we include a digital skin analysis to guide the recommendation for frequency and depth of treatment.

5. What About Downtime?

Most patients experience temporary redness and mild swelling following treatment. This typically resolves within 24–48 hours, although sensitivity can vary depending on your skin type and treatment intensity.

6. How Do I Know If It’s Right for Me?

At Dr. Luci Clinic in Caringbah, we take time to understand your unique skin concerns and goals. Skin needling is not suitable for everyone. A thorough consultation ensures that treatment is safe, appropriate, and aligned with your needs.

Important Note
Results vary from person to person. We do not guarantee outcomes. All procedures are guided by clinical assessment and informed consent.
