collagen induction therapy

The treatment uses ultra-fine needles to create precise micro-channels in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing response and collagen production.

Collagen Induction Therapy (Skin Needling)

Advanced skin rejuvenation at JMF Skin and Body Co

Collagen Induction Therapy — also known as skin needling or micro-needling — stimulates your skin’s natural repair process to improve texture, tone, and firmness. Fine, sterile needles create micro-channels in the skin, triggering collagen and elastin production while boosting absorption of active serums. Over a course of treatments, you’ll notice smoother, firmer, more radiant skin with reduced scarring and pigmentation.

Benefits

  • Improves skin texture and fine lines

  • Reduces acne and surgical scars

  • Minimises enlarged pores

  • Increases skin elasticity and firmness

  • Enhances absorption of active skincare ingredients

What to Expect

Consultation – Your therapist will perform a skin analysis, review your medical history, and determine suitability.

Treatment – Using a precision device, your therapist creates micro-channels in the skin. This takes around 30 minutes.
Aftercare – Gentle skincare, sun protection, and a nourishing serum are recommended for optimal healing.

Advanced Microneedling Options

PDRN Pink Microneedling

What it is: PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) is a regenerative ingredient often derived from salmon DNA fragments. “Pink” refers to a tinted formulation used with microneedling to accelerate healing, boost hydration, and improve skin elasticity.
Best for: Ageing, dull, or dehydrated skin, and clients seeking faster recovery.

Bio Microneedling

What it is: Combines microneedling with biologically active serums such as growth factors, peptides, vitamins, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to feed regenerating skin.
Best for: Those seeking natural collagen stimulation and enhanced repair without synthetic additives.

PDRN Salmon DNA Microneedling

What it is: Uses PDRN sourced from salmon DNA alongside microneedling to support skin regeneration, hydration, and elasticity.
Benefits vs. standard microneedling: Faster recovery, improved hydration, reduced redness, and better results for thinning or lax skin.

FAQs

Does it hurt? Mild discomfort is possible; numbing cream is used to make it more comfortable.
Is there downtime? Redness and mild swelling may last 1–3 days; PDRN protocols may shorten recovery.
Can it help pigmentation? Yes, particularly when combined with brightening serums or peels.
How is PDRN different from PRP? PRP uses your own platelets; PDRN is a purified DNA-based ingredient with unique tissue repair properties.
