What’s the difference between 0.5mm and 0.75mm?

0.5mm
This is where reliable collagen stimulation begins.

Often used for texture, pores, and early signs of ageing.

For most skin types and general rejuvenation, this is the key working depth.

0.75mm
A deeper approach that creates a stronger dermal response.

Used for more noticeable texture, thicker skin, or early scarring where additional remodelling is beneficial.

This depth is not typically required in thinner or more delicate areas such as the forehead or around the eyes.

It is more commonly used in thicker areas like the cheeks, where the skin can tolerate a deeper, controlled response.

But the most important thing?

Going deeper doesn’t always mean better results.

0.5mm is already effective for collagen induction and is suitable for most facial rejuvenation treatments.

Deeper depths are not an upgrade in performance…
- they are used for specific indications and skin types.

Depth should always be chosen based on:
• the area treated
• skin thickness
• the concern being addressed

The skin is thinner than most people think.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural wound-healing response, triggering the production of collagen and elastin to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and large pores.

We know it can be hard to understand timelines for treatments and while we do cover it extensively during our consultations it is important to have this as a reminder to those of you who are new to aesthetic treatments

BOTOX® or Botox - Do You Know What’s Being Injected into Your Face? - Save Face - Find a Practitioner or Clinic Today Botox or alternative brands? Get informed about what is injected, the risks of unlicensed products, and how to choose safe treatments.

Doncaster beauty seekers warned to be aware of unlicensed Botox-like procedures causing adverse reactions

“Beauty” treatments?
Blindness, necrosis, infection, and irreversible harm.
These are medical procedures with medical risks.
Not beauty therapy.
Aesthetic Medicine is Medicine.
Do you agree?
