SKIN NEEDLING GUIDE

Bliss Skin & Body has been caring for the skin of Albury-Wodonga clients for almost three decades. As the region’s longest-serving skin clinic, every treatment we introduce is carefully researched and selected to ensure it meets our standards for safety, results and long-term skin health.

We invest in the highest quality technology, professional skincare and ongoing advanced training so that every treatment delivered at Bliss reflects our commitment to expert care and exceptional client outcomes.

Below are answers to some of the most common questions about the treatment, recovery and what makes the Bliss approach different.

What makes the EXCEED microneedling device different?

At Bliss Skin & Body, we use the EXCEED Medical Microneedling Device, one of the few microneedling systems worldwide with dual FDA clearance for the treatment of wrinkles and acne scarring.

This advanced device allows treatments to be performed with exceptional precision using sterile, single-use needle cartridges designed for safety and consistency.

When combined with professional skin preparation, advanced recovery treatments and expert technique, EXCEED helps stimulate collagen and elastin production while supporting the skin’s natural regenerative processes.

Is skin needling the same as microneedling?

Yes. Skin needling and microneedling both refer to collagen induction therapy, a professional treatment that stimulates the skin’s natural repair response to encourage collagen and elastin production.

This process helps improve skin texture, soften acne scarring and support smoother, firmer and more resilient skin over time.

Is skin needling painful?

Most clients describe skin needling as very manageable with only mild sensation during treatment.

At Bliss, treatments are performed carefully and progressively, with professional skin preparation, high-quality equipment and calming recovery treatments to support both comfort and skin health throughout the procedure.

Client care is always a priority and treatments are never rushed.

What skin concerns can skin needling improve?

Skin needling is one of the most effective non-invasive treatments for improving overall skin quality.

When performed professionally, it can help improve:

• fine lines and wrinkles

• acne scarring and pitted texture

• enlarged pores

• uneven skin tone and texture

• sun damage and pigmentation

• overall skin firmness and clarity

Many clients also choose skin needling as part of a long-term collagen maintenance strategy.

How many skin needling treatments will I need?

This depends on your skin concerns and goals.

Some clients notice visible improvements after a single treatment, while others benefit from a series of treatments to address concerns such as acne scarring, uneven texture or advanced skin ageing.

During your consultation, your therapist will assess your skin and recommend a personalised treatment plan to achieve the best results.

What is the downtime after skin needling?

Downtime is minimal for most clients.

You may experience temporary redness or warmth, similar to a mild sunburn, immediately after treatment. This typically settles within 24–48 hours, with the skin continuing to improve over the following days.

At Bliss we support recovery with professional treatments such as Dermalogica PRO Restore, calming masques and personalised aftercare guidance.

Is skin needling safe for all skin types?

When performed professionally, skin needling is suitable for most skin types.

At Bliss we carefully assess your skin before treatment and customise the treatment depth and technique to ensure both safety and optimal results.

Why do skin needling prices vary between clinics?

Not all skin needling treatments are the same.

The quality of the device used, the experience of the therapist and the treatment protocol all influence both results and pricing.

At Bliss Skin & Body, your treatment includes:

• the EXCEED medical-grade microneedling device

• professional skin preparation and advanced recovery treatments

• Dermalogica professional skincare including PRO Restore

• calming post-treatment care

• a one-week follow-up visit to monitor your skin’s recovery

Treatments are never rushed and are carefully tailored to support your skin before, during and after treatment.

When will I see results from skin needling?

Many clients notice improvements in skin texture and luminosity within a few weeks.

Collagen production continues gradually over time, with results improving after each treatment as the skin strengthens and renews itself.
