Stimulate collagen to create smooth and firmer skin with Microneedling
Discover microneedling Brisbane
Many people experience skin concerns such as fine lines, uneven texture, acne scarring, or enlarged pores — and look for treatments that refresh the complexion without surgery. At Queensland Skin and Laser in Brisbane, we offer microneedling (also known as skin needling) to support your skin’s natural renewal process, helping improve texture, tone, and overall skin quality.
Skin needling actively stimulates collagen production to smooth texture, refresh the complexion, and soften early signs of ageing. When combined with other in-clinic treatments and included in a monthly skin routine, it becomes a powerful step towards maintaining skin that feels healthy, vibrant, and well cared for.
What is Microneedling?
(Also called Skin Needling or Collagen Induction Therapy)
Microneedling uses fine, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates your body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin — two proteins that help keep skin firm, smooth, and resilient.
Achieve smoother skin and address concerns like uneven skin tone and enlarged pores with a microneedling treatment at Queensland Skin and Laser.

Am I a Good Candidate for Microneedling?
Not sure if microneedling is right for you? Microneedling can suit those wanting to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, or address minor scarring. The treatment works best when tailored to your unique skin type and goals. During a professional consultation, a clinician will assess your suitability to ensure safe and effective results.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling uses tiny, medical-grade needles to create small, controlled “micro-injuries” in the skin. This controlled trauma doesn’t damage the skin, but signals the body to activate repair mechanisms.
Collagen & Elastin Boost: It encourages the production of collagen and elastin, which help your skin stay firm, smooth, and elastic.
Skin Renewal: The treatment speeds up your skin’s natural turnover, clearing away old cells and revealing fresh, healthy ones.
Improved Hydration & Texture: By supporting the skin’s structure, it can make skin feel softer, plumper, and more even.
Microneeding Treatment process
at Queensland skin and Laser
Consultation
Your microneedling journey begins with a detailed consultation where your clinician assesses your concerns, skin type, and goals. From here, they design a personalised plan that aligns with your needs and focuses on improving skin tone and texture.
Procedure
During the procedure, your practitioner uses a professional device with fine needles to create tiny, controlled micro-channels in the skin. These micro-injuries activate the skin’s natural repair process, stimulating collagen and elastin production. After microneedling, your clinician may apply serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to boost absorption and support recovery.
What to expect from your microneedling treatment
Results
You may notice initial results within a few weeks, with continued improvements as collagen production increases over time. Clinicians often recommend a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve the best outcome. You can also pair microneedling with other professional treatments to enhance results.
Recovery
Microneedling may leave your skin slightly red or sensitive for 24–48 hours. During this time, use gentle skincare, keep your skin hydrated, and protect it from the sun. Your practitioner will give you personalised aftercare instructions to support recovery.
Possible Risks or Side Effects of skin needling
Microneedling is generally well-tolerated; however, some potential risks or side effects include:
- Temporary redness or swelling of the treatment area
- Pinpoint bleeding can appear in sensitive areas but typically heals quickly
- Mild skin sensitivity or tenderness for 24-48 hours
- Mild skin irritation or dryness as the skin heals
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in rare cases
A consultation with a dermal clinician is important to assess suitability and minimise risks.
How Much Does Microneedling Cost?
The cost of microneedling varies depending on the treatment area and number of sessions.
- Full Face: $249
- Full Face + Neck: $298
- Full Face + Neck + Decolletage: $348
- Additional PRP vial: $350

Frequently Asked Questions
about Microneedling
What skin concerns can microneedling address?
Microneedling can improve the overall appearance and health of your skin over time. It helps smooth texture, even out skin tone, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and minor scars. By stimulating collagen and elastin production, the skin becomes firmer, more resilient, and refreshed. Micro-channels created during treatment also allow serums to penetrate more effectively, enhancing their benefits.
What are the side effects of microneedling
Microneedling is safe when a qualified professional performs the treatment. After your session, you may notice temporary effects such as mild redness, swelling, or tenderness, which usually fade within 24–48 hours. Minor bruising, pinpoint bleeding, or slight flaking can also occur as your skin heals. Rarely, complications such as infection or changes in pigmentation may happen, which is why a professional consultation and proper aftercare are important.
Is microneedling suitable for all skin types?
Microneedling is generally considered safe for most skin types, including sensitive and darker skin tones. Because it stimulates your skin’s natural repair processes instead of using heat or strong chemicals, it carries a lower risk of pigment changes or irritation than some other treatments. During a consultation, your practitioner assesses your suitability to ensure the procedure is safe for your individual skin type and concerns.
How many microneedling sessions will I need?
The number of microneedling sessions you need varies depending on your skin type, concerns, and treatment goals. Many clients notice improvements after 1–2 sessions, and practitioners often recommend a series of 3–6 treatments spaced several weeks apart for optimal results. You can also include microneedling in your monthly skincare routine to maintain gradual improvements.
What can microneedling be combined with?
Practitioners can combine microneedling with other professional treatments to enhance results. They often pair microneedling with chemical peels to improve texture and tone, or with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) to support skin repair and rejuvenation. After treatment, your clinician applies targeted serums, allowing active ingredients to penetrate more effectively. During a consultation at Queensland Skin and Laser, your practitioner creates a treatment plan tailored to your individual skin needs.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
