Skin Needling
Sometimes change starts by asking the skin to repair itself.
Sometimes change starts by asking the skin to repair itself.
Skin Needling — also known as Collagen Induction Therapy — is very different from a traditional facial.
Instead of simply treating the surface, microneedling creates controlled microchannels in the skin, triggering the skin’s natural repair response.
That response is the reason we use it for concerns such as texture, acne scarring, enlarged pores, pigmentation, fine lines and overall skin quality.
The treatment itself is more clinical than relaxing. You will feel the device working across the skin and some areas can feel uncomfortable. Depending on your individual response, the skin may look quite red afterwards and that redness can continue into the following day.
That reaction is part of why preparation, therapist experience and aftercare matter so much with this treatment.
Skin Needling can be booked as a one-off, but we generally see it at its best when it becomes part of a properly planned series rather than a random appointment.
For stronger programs, offer a three-treatment series with Defy serum and Prep & Recover homecare kit. Skin Needling++ includes neck and décolletage.

Skin Needling Boot Camp
Three skin needling treatments, your choice of Defy $169 serum, and the Prep and Recover kit with peels to use at home between visits. Purchased upfront. Expiry dates apply.
Meet Defy.
Defy homecare is prescribed for your skin, not for the facial you booked. Using your OBSERV skin analysis, your therapist considers your skin type, age, concerns, current routine and the change you want, then recommends a cleanser, serum, moisturiser and daily SPF from Defy Essentials or Defy Cosmeceuticals. Only what your skin needs, nothing replaced for the sake of it. Skin is prepared with specific Defy products before needling and laser, and supported with a dedicated aftercare routine. Your therapist plans both with you. The boot camp includes your choice of Defy $169 serum and the Prep and Recover kit.
