At SkinMedics on Cohen Street, we are dedicated to treatments that work with your body’s natural regenerative processes. Microneedling—also known as collagen induction therapy—is a clinically proven, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment designed to stimulate your skin’s natural healing response, smooth texture, and restore a firm, youthful radiance.

Whether you want to soften fine lines, minimize acne scarring, or improve overall skin tone and elasticity, microneedling offers powerful results with minimal recovery time.

How Microneedling Works

Using a specialized, medical-grade automated pen equipped with fine, sterile needles, your clinician creates microscopic, controlled micro-channels in the skin.

  • Collagen & Elastin Stimulation: These micro-injuries trigger the skin’s natural healing cascade, ramping up the production of fresh collagen and elastin fibers.
  • Deep Product Infusion: The creation of these temporary channels allows targeted, medical-grade serums (such as hyaluronic acid or growth factors) to penetrate deeper into the dermis, maximizing their restorative benefits.
  • Skin Remodeling: Over the following weeks, your skin naturally rebuilds itself, resulting in tighter, smoother, and more resilient tissue.

Key Benefits of the Treatment

  • Improves Skin Texture & Tone: Softens the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, and rough skin patches.
  • Reduces Scaring: Highly effective for softening acne scars, surgical scars, and uneven texture.
  • Enhances Firmness: Restores natural elasticity and bounce by rebuilding underlying structural support.
  • Versatile & Safe: Suitable for a wide range of skin types and can be performed on the face, neck, décolletage, and other areas of the body.

What to Expect During Your Session

  1. Preparation: We begin by thoroughly cleansing your skin. A topical numbing cream is typically applied for 20 to 30 minutes beforehand to ensure your complete comfort during the procedure.
  2. The Treatment (approx. 30–45 minutes): Your clinician gently glides the sterile micro-needling device across the treatment area. You may feel a mild vibration or light scratching sensation.
  3. Post-Treatment Care: We finish with a soothing, hydrating mask and medical-grade SPF. Your skin will appear flushed—similar to a mild sunburn—which typically subsides within 24 to 48 hours.

Testimonials

I was sent to Dr Bezzina by my GP for a huge lipoma on my back, it was grapefruit sized. Dr Bezzina surgically removed it and I’m so impressed with the outcome, others told me it couldn’t be done without a general anaesthetic and for four times the cost! Dr Bezzina is not super cheap but well worth his expertise
I was referred by my gp to Dr Bezzina for skin cancer removal on my face. He did a great job and pain free. Looks really neat and Dr Bezzina is just a really friendly guy that loves to have a chat. Definitely would recommend him 🙂
I was referred to Dr Damien by my usual GP to remove a skin cancer the the side of my nose, Damien surgically removed it in what was a largely painless process. His bedside manner was fantastic and he has great nursing support. Now 6 weeks later and you can hardly tell I have a skin flap on my nose! So pleased! Thank you for your hard work!
Dr Bezzina performed minor surgery on me today for a skin lesion. I was very happy with his expertise, patient engagement, explanations when asked. I will become a regular client.
Nothing but magic! Put me at ease, excellent job and worth every $
Damien was very professional and friendly. He explained things very clearly and provided great advice. I’ll be back for my annual skin check.
Excellent advice. Very professional and easy to talk to. Recommended.
Bedside manner is wonderful, warm and knowledgeable. Left feeling enlightened. I had surgery for a skin cancer on my hand and I still can’t believe the result are so good! Thank you again, 100% recommend and I love the country music playing during the surgery!
