Microneedling treatment in Sydney
Think of your skin as your lawn—every now and then, it needs mulching to stimulate fresh growth.
At tw&SKIN, we offer microneedling treatments designed to restore, hydrate, and renew your skin for a radiant, healthy glow.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses tiny needles (0.25mm–2mm) to create micro-punctures in the skin. These microchannels stimulate cellular renewal and collagen production while allowing targeted serums to penetrate deep into the dermis for maximum efficacy.
Rooted in ancient acupuncture, microneedling was reinvented in the 1990s as a cutting-edge technique for collagen stimulation by plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and medical engineers.
This versatile treatment can:
Hydrate and refresh the skin.
Improve scars and uneven texture.
Address pigmentation concerns.
Each area of your face can be treated with customised needle depths and serums, so downtime is minimal—you can often return to your routine within 24 hours.
Why Choose Microneedling at tw&SKIN?
Microneedling stands out for its unique ability to infuse powerful serums directly into the skin at the most effective depth. For example, hyaluronic acid, known for its supercharged hydration, is a large molecule that struggles to penetrate the skin through regular application. Using microneedling, we deliver it where your skin needs it most, helping to repair a damaged barrier or restore hydration.

Microneedling FAQs
How long between microneedling treatments?
For hydration and serum absorption: 2–4 weeks.
For collagen induction, scarring, or pigmentation: 8 weeks to prevent overstimulation and optimise results.
Is there social downtime after treatment?
You may experience redness and a sunburn-like sensation for a few days, with mild swelling around the eyes. Staying hydrated, using UberZinc, and avoiding sun exposure will speed up recovery.
Who is microneedling ideal for?
Microneedling is perfect for those under 35 looking to:
- Improve skin texture and hydration.
- Minimise mild acne scarring.
- Reduce pigmentation.
- Enhance skin health and integrity.
It’s also ideal for thin, barrier-impaired skin when combined with targeted serums.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments varies by individual. During your consultation, we’ll create a tailored plan, which may include microneedling alongside other treatments to achieve your goals.
Can microneedling be done year-round?
While safe year-round, we recommend avoiding hot days or peak summer to minimise irritation. Avoid beaches, pools, saunas, or activities that induce sweating for at least 48 hours post-treatment.
Who should avoid microneedling?
Microneedling is safe for all skin tones but not suitable if:
- You have active autoimmune disorders, diabetes, or are on blood-thinning medications (specialist clearance required).
- You are pregnant (hormonal changes may affect results).
- You have a darker skin tone and are in peak summer (risk of photosensitivity).
