Microneedling in Ballito – Restore Smooth, Healthy Skin
Safe, minimally invasive treatment to improve texture, reduce scars, and boost natural collagen production
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a collagen-inducing skin treatment that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface.
This stimulates your body’s natural healing response, promoting new collagen and elastin production for healthier, firmer, and smoother-looking skin. At our practice in Ballito, we use medical-grade devices (such as SkinPen) for safe, effective, and consistent results.
