MEDICAL MICRONEEDLING

About this treatment

Medical Microneedling in Cardiff | Collagen Induction Therapy Medical microneedling — also known as collagen induction therapy — is a clinically proven skin treatment available at Sebastian Rose, Cardiff's trusted medical aesthetics clinic. Using precision micro-needles at carefully controlled depths, this advanced therapy stimulates your skin's natural collagen and elastin production to rejuvenate, resurface and restore your complexion. What is the Difference Between Medical Microneedling and Salon Microneedling? Not all microneedling is created equal — and this distinction matters. Medical microneedling, performed by trained medical professionals, uses clinical-grade devices capable of reaching depths of up to 3mm into the skin, targeting the dermis where real collagen induction occurs. Beauty salon microneedling is restricted by law to superficial depths only, as deeper penetration constitutes a medical procedure. At-home derma rollers and microneedling devices are shallower still, lack sterility controls, and carry a genuine risk of infection, scarring, and skin damage if used incorrectly. Medical microneedling at Sebastian Rose is performed under medical supervision with prescription-grade serums, sterile single-use needles, and a bespoke treatment plan — delivering results that simply cannot be replicated in a salon or at home. What Does Medical Microneedling Treat? Medical microneedling addresses acne scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, skin laxity, uneven skin tone, sun damage, stretch marks, and overall skin texture and dullness. Clinically proven to deliver results comparable to laser treatments, it is suitable for all skin types and tones with minimal downtime. Advanced Add-Ons Available Enhance your treatment with PRP, Exosomes, Polynucleotides (PDRN), WOW Fusion brightening serum, Sunekos bio-revitalisation, or combine with Botox for full facial rejuvenation — all available at our Cardiff clinic. What to Expect A recommended course of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with visible improvement after just one session. Downtime is minimal — 24–48 hours of mild redness only. Your practitioner will assess your skin and build a bespoke treatment plan tailored to your concerns and goals. Performed by medically trained practitioners at our Cardiff clinic, 39 Charles Street.
