Skin needling, sometimes called collagen induction therapy, has become one of the most talked-about treatments in the beauty and wellness space. Non-invasive, non-injectable, and performed in a clinical environment, it has earned a reputation for its ability to support healthier-looking skin without the need for extreme measures.
At Vitamin Cee Aesthetics & Wellness in Niddrie, skin needling is not about hype. It is about professional care in a calm, safe, and welcoming space. If you have ever wondered what the buzz is about, consider this your guide to everything you need to know.
Imagine a treatment that works with your skin, not against it. Skin needling uses a precision device with fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled micro-channels on the skin’s surface. These micro-channels stimulate your skin’s natural processes, creating conditions that may support rejuvenation and enhance product absorption.
At Vitamin Cee, treatments are performed by trained professionals using medical-grade devices. Every detail is considered, from sterile single-use cartridges to tailored post-care support, ensuring your experience is safe, professional, and comfortable.
Important note: Skin needling is not designed to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure medical conditions. Every skin type is different, and results vary. A consultation is always required before beginning treatment.
Think of skin needling as a three-step ritual:
Step 1: Consultation
Your practitioner takes the time to understand your skin, your lifestyle, and your concerns. Together, you decide whether skin needling is the right choice for you.
Step 2: Preparation
On the day, your skin is thoroughly cleansed. A topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure you are comfortable.
Step 3: The treatment
Using the Dermapen4 device, your practitioner gently glides across the skin in sections. Most clients describe the sensation as a light scratching or tingling. The process, from start to finish, usually takes around one hour.
After your session, your skin may appear flushed or feel warm, much like mild sun exposure. This usually settles within 24 to 48 hours. Some clients notice a temporary feeling of tightness or sensitivity.
During recovery, aftercare is essential. Avoid wearing makeup for 24 to 48 hours, apply daily sun protection, and follow the tailored advice provided by your practitioner. At Vitamin Cee, every client leaves with guidance created specifically for their skin needs.
For many, it is not about dramatic transformation but about supporting gradual, natural improvements. Skin needling is often chosen by those who want to refine texture, support overall skin vitality, and create a smoother-looking base for skincare or makeup.
Clinical studies have also explored skin needling in relation to pigmentation, melasma, and acne scarring. However, suitability depends on the individual, which is why a professional consultation is essential.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer. Some choose a seasonal treatment as a reset, while others incorporate it into a long-term skin strategy. At Vitamin Cee, your practitioner will help map out a plan that aligns with your goals and lifestyle, without pressure or unrealistic promises.
A single treatment: $350
Package of 3 treatments: $950
In a world of passing beauty fads, skin needling continues to hold its place because it works with the skin in a way that feels natural, professional, and considered.
At Vitamin Cee, the focus is always on you — your comfort, your confidence, and your safety. From consultation to aftercare, every step is designed to feel less like a quick appointment and more like a thoughtful act of self-investment.
If you are curious about skin needling, the first step is simple: book a consultation and discover whether this treatment is the right fit for you.
