What is microneedling?
Microneedling is a non-invasive treatment method in which fine needles create tiny microchannels in the skin. This targeted stimulation promotes natural regeneration and boosts the body’s own production of collagen and elastin. Nourishing active ingredients can also be introduced through the resulting microchannels. The result is a visibly refined, firmer, and more even complexion.
Microneedling harnesses the skin's natural healing abilities. It is precisely this natural approach that wins me over—and my patients as well.
Treatment Process
After thoroughly cleansing the skin, a sterile device with fine needles is guided precisely and carefully over the affected areas.
- Consultation and Skin Analysis
- Cleansing and Preparing the Skin
- Treatment with the microneedling device, 30 to 60 minutes
- Several sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. We recommend a course of treatment consisting of 4 sessions.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Is microneedling painful?
Most patients describe the treatment as a mild scratching sensation that is easily tolerated. If desired, the skin can be numbed beforehand.
What side effects might occur?
After treatment, you may experience mild redness and swelling, which usually subside within a few hours or by the next day.
How many sessions are recommended?
We generally recommend several sessions spaced four to six weeks apart to achieve optimal results.
For which skin problems is microneedling particularly effective?
It is particularly effective for acne scars, fine lines, pigmentation issues, and general signs of aging.
Can I go right back to my normal routine afterward?
You can usually resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment. Your skin may be slightly red and sensitive for a short time. You should avoid intense sun exposure, exercise, and saunas for a short time.
