Microneedling a.k.a. Skin Needling or Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT)

Experience professional skin needling using the 1Need Pro system — a medical-grade device designed to deliver controlled, precise treatments that support the skin’s natural renewal process.

Skin needling is a minimally invasive treatment that creates controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate repair pathways and enhance the absorption of professional serums.

This medical-grade, Italian-made device is the latest and greatest in skin needling and beyond, providing a comfortable, quiet, and clinically-proven experience. Boasting the world’s safest anti back-flow system, it protects against cross-contamination and provides precise skin penetration for serious skin rejuvenation, treating everything from advanced signs of ageing to uneven tone and texture, sagging skin, and scars.

The 1NEED Pro is designed and manufactured in Italy and is the only skin needling device in the world to hold a Class IIB Medical Device certification and six international patents for safety.

• Soundproof operation with adjustable needle lengths: Premium experience, control & comfort

• World’s safest anti back-flow system: NoFlow® cartridges

• Suitable for all skin types, areas & concerns: Face, body, hair loss & skincare infusion

• TGA registered

• To restore firmness and tightness to loose skin: a less invasive alternative to face-lift procedures and an alternative to eye-lifting procedures (great results in the skin above the eyes can be achieved due to natural elevation of eyebrows as a result of healing)
• To thicken the epidermis and enhance dermal compactness
• To smooth wrinkles, lines and folds: Suitable alternative or complement to injections with hyaluronic acid dermal fillers
• To reduce pigmentation, melasma, brown spots and lighten the skin tone
• To reduce pore size by increasing collagen production around the pore (which helps to squeeze the pore tighter) and due to increasing elastin production (which allows stretched pores to revert back to their original size)
• Suitable alternative to ablative resurfacing treatments for patients with thin skin. A virtually painless and cost-effective treatment alternative to non-ablative laser therapy (i.e. Fraxel)
• To reduce the appearance of scars, acne scars and post surgery scars
• To reduce stretch marks from pregnancy or due to body weight changes
• To reduce the appearance of cellulite. Skin needling helps to thicken the skin by stimulating collagen and synthesis in the dermal layers whilst leaving the epidermis intact. The result “orange peel” is less visible
• To dramatically increase the penetration and, therefore, the therapeutic effect of topical serums

Skin needling is suitable for all skin types. It is ideal for clients who want to improve hyperpigmentation, skin laxity, uneven skin tone, enlarged pores, acne, scarring, the onset of ageing, and rosacea.

Suitability will be assessed during a consultation. As with all cosmetic treatments, results vary and depend on individual skin characteristics.

At the end of your treatment, there will be erythema present, and mild bleeding can occur. The skin may be red for 24-72 hours.

There are little risks involved with the 1Need Pro if all guidelines are followed. Some of the associated risks and complications can include:

• Mild flaking or dryness
• Scab formation
• Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation
• Granulomas

Any complications are rare and in most cases easily resolved
