Skin needling, also called microneedling, is a cosmetic procedure that sees tiny needles pressed into your skin’s surface, creating micro-injuries. The pricks stimulate the body’s natural healing, boosting collagen and elastin production, which results in a smoother, firmer texture.
Sounds great, right? If you’re curious to try skin needling and want to try it for the first time, you’re in luck because Australia’s only skin needling specialist clinic The Skin Bar is offering first-time customers 30% off. Simply enter ‘SKINBAR30’ at check-out. Founded by Samantha Apell, who has over a decade of skin needling experience, the clinic has nine locations across NSW, QLD and VIC, including five around Sydney.
Skin needling can help soften wrinkles and diminish scars, giving you clearer, more radiant skin. Many TikTok creators are sharing that they’re getting treatments as an alternative to Botox as it strengthens skin from within and provides ongoing improvement. Botox, on the other hand, simply temporarily paralyses muscles.
“Botox is primarily focused on reducing dynamic wrinkles but it doesn’t improve the skin’s texture, tone or overall health,” says Apell. “Skin needling plumps up collagen all over the face, where Botox will not improve skin texture and only paralyse the muscles in that specific area.”
Here’s a video of my experience at The Skin Bar‘s Bondi location:
