The Gold Standard in Natural Skin Regeneration
Microneedling, frequently referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is a cornerstone of modern aesthetic medicine. At Velvet Laser Clinic, we offer a medical-grade approach that bypasses temporary surface fixes to stimulate deep-tissue regeneration. This procedure is highly favoured across Australia for its ability to treat the skin without the use of heat or harsh chemicals, making it suitable for almost all skin types.
How the Biological Healing Cascade Works When our advanced microneedling device glides across your skin, it creates thousands of microscopic, vertical “channels” in the dermis. While these are invisible to the naked eye, your body perceives them as tiny injuries. This triggers a three-phase healing response:
Inflammation: Immediately after the procedure, the skin releases growth factors to coordinate repair.
Proliferation: New cells are formed, and the skin begins to produce fresh, high-quality collagen and elastin.
Remodelling: Over the following weeks, this new tissue replaces older, damaged tissue, resulting in a visible tightening and smoothing effect.
Targeted Clinical Benefits
Acne Scarring & Pitting: By breaking up old, fibrous scar tissue, microneedling allows the skin to re-fill “depressions” with new collagen.
Fine Lines & “Mouth Lines”: It is exceptionally effective for those vertical lines around the lips and the delicate “crow’s feet” around the eyes.
Pore Refinement: As the skin tightens through collagen production, the appearance of enlarged pores is significantly reduced.
Aftercare & The “Velvet” Glow Immediately following your session, your skin will exhibit a healthy redness, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within 24 to 48 hours. During this window, the micro-channels remain open, making it the perfect time to apply the clinical-grade serums we provide, as absorption is increased by up to 800%.
