Microneedling in Switzerland - Naturally stimulating the skin for a regenerating effect
Microneedling is a non-invasive aesthetic medicine technique that boosts skin regeneration, firms tissues and visibly improves skin quality. This treatment stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin, while promoting the penetration of active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and vitamins.
It is ideal for preventing skin ageing, smoothing imperfections and reviving radiance.
Indications for microneedling
Microneedling is indicated for :
- A dull or blotchy complexion,
- Wrinkled or loose skin,
- Fine lines and wrinkles (especially around the eyes and mouth),
- Dilated pores,
- Old or new stretch marks,
- Slight slackening of the face or body.
It is compatible with all skin types, fair or dark, and can be used all year round.
How does microneedling work?
The technique is based on an electric pen equipped with single-use microneedles, which make controlled micro-perforations in the dermis.
This has two major effects:
- Activate cell regeneration via a natural healing mechanism,
- Open micro-channels to facilitate absorption of surface-applied active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, vitamins, etc.).
The result: firmer, denser, more luminous skin.
Session sequence
- The doctor and patient define the area to be treated (face, neck, décolleté, hands, etc.),
- Depending on the depth of treatment, a numbing cream may be applied,
- The treatment lasts approximately 30 minutes,
- Successive passes are made with a micro-cannula adjusted in depth, depending on the objectives.
Redness and slight bleeding may appear during the deepest sessions, but disappear rapidly.
Frequency and protocol
- Initial treatment: 3 sessions spaced 3 weeks apart,
- Maintenance: 1 session every 6 to 12 months,
- Additional sessions may be suggested after intense sun exposure, or for smokers or mature skin.
