Microneedling in Melbourne, Nurse Led Skin Needling With Infusion
Looking for microneedling in Melbourne? At ReflectorN in Fairfield, microneedling is performed by Sunny Greig, an experienced Division 1 nurse, and combines controlled skin needling with a nourishing serum infusion for deeper skin rejuvenation. This treatment stimulates your skin's own collagen and elastin production to improve texture, soften fine lines and reduce the appearance of scarring, with minimal downtime. It sits alongside our other skin boosters as a treatment focused on genuine skin quality rather than added volume.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as skin needling, uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro channels in the skin. These tiny, controlled micro injuries trigger your body's natural wound healing response, which stimulates collagen and elastin production and encourages the skin to renew itself from within. Because the treatment works with your own biology rather than resurfacing the surface aggressively, results build progressively and look natural.
Microneedling with NTCF Revitalising Infusion
The micro channels created during treatment also allow active ingredients to penetrate far more effectively than they could when applied to the surface alone. At ReflectorN we offer two infusion options.
Microneedling with hyaluronic infusion deeply hydrates and plumps the skin, improving elasticity and giving an immediate smoothed, refreshed appearance. If your main concern is hydration and surface glow rather than texture, our Glass Skin Facial may be the better starting point.
Microneedling with NCTF infusion delivers a nutrient rich solution containing vitamins, amino acids, minerals and coenzymes, supporting cellular activity and enhancing overall skin rejuvenation.
Which infusion suits you depends on your skin and your goals, and is decided together at your appointment.
Benefits of NTCF infusion
• enhanced skin hydration
• improved skin radiance
• stronger collagen stimulation
• improved skin repair
• smoother and healthier skin
NTCF microneedling is often recommended for skin rejuvenation, dull skin and early signs of ageing.
Stayve PDRN Booster Microneedling
Microneedling treatments may also be enhanced using Stayve skin boosters containing PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide).
PDRN is a regenerative ingredient derived from DNA fragments that help stimulate cell repair and tissue regeneration.
These boosters can target specific skin concerns such as:
​
PDRN for Skin Regeneration:
PDRN supports tissue healing and collagen stimulation, helping improve overall skin quality.
​
PDRN for Acne and Acne Scars:
Microneedling combined with PDRN helps accelerate skin healing while improving acne scars and post-inflammatory redness.
​
Whitening and Brightening Boosters:
Specialised Stayve boosters help reduce pigmentation and improve uneven skin tone, creating brighter and more luminous skin.
Because these boosters are delivered during microneedling, they penetrate more effectively into the skin, enhancing treatment results.
How Microneedling Works
During a microneedling treatment, thousands of microscopic channels are created in the skin. This controlled process triggers the skin's natural wound healing response, the same biological mechanism your body uses to repair itself, which is why microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy.
The healing response occurs in three phases:
1. Inflammation Phase
The micro injuries stimulate growth factors that activate the skin's repair process.
increased blood flow delivers oxygen and nutrients to the treatment area
growth factors signal the skin to begin repairing
this phase begins immediately and typically settles within 24 to 48 hours
2. Proliferation Phase
Fibroblasts begin producing new collagen and elastin fibres.
fibroblasts are the cells responsible for building your skin's support structure
new collagen and elastin start rebuilding the dermal matrix
this is where the foundation for smoother, firmer skin is laid
3. Remodelling Phase
Over several weeks, new collagen strengthens the skin structure, improving firmness, texture and overall skin quality.
collagen matures and reorganises for lasting strength
skin texture refines and firmness improves progressively
results continue developing for weeks after your appointment, which is why a course of treatments builds on itself
Because microneedling works through your skin's own regenerative processes rather than resurfacing the surface aggressively, the improvements look natural and continue building between sessions. This is also why the serum infusion matters: the microscopic channels allow active ingredients to reach the skin during the exact window when it is most receptive to repair.
What Happens During a Microneedling Facial?
Your microneedling treatment in Fairfield typically takes around 45 to 60 minutes, and every step is designed around comfort, safety and results.
Skin Cleanse
The treatment begins with a thorough cleanse to remove oil, makeup and impurities.
prepares the skin surface for safe treatment
ensures serums can absorb properly
reduces the risk of congestion afterwards
Skin Preparation
Your skin is prepared to ensure optimal treatment safety and effectiveness.
numbing cream is applied for comfort
the treatment area is assessed and the needle depth is adjusted to suit your skin
your skin type and concerns determine how the treatment is delivered
Microneedling Treatment
A professional microneedling device creates controlled micro channels in the skin to stimulate collagen production.
thousands of microscopic channels trigger the natural wound healing response
fibroblasts are activated to produce new collagen and elastin
depth and technique are tailored to your concern, whether that is texture, scarring or fine lines
NCTF or Stayve Infusion
Specialised skin treatment serums, NCTF or Stayve BB Bio, are applied during treatment while the micro channels are open and the skin is most receptive.
NCTF delivers vitamins, amino acids, minerals and coenzymes to support cellular activity
Stayve BB Bio supports hydration, brightness and overall skin quality
infusing at this stage allows far deeper absorption than surface application alone
your infusion is chosen based on your skin and your goals
Post Treatment Care
Soothing products are applied to calm the skin and support healing after treatment.
calming serums and moisturisers reduce redness and support the skin barrier
LED light therapy can be added to accelerate healing and enhance results
aftercare guidance is provided so you know exactly what to expect over the next few days
Most clients experience redness similar to mild sunburn for 1 to 3 days, with a visible glow developing as the skin responds.
Benefits of Microneedling
Regular microneedling facials in Fairfield can significantly improve skin quality, working with your skin's own regenerative processes rather than resurfacing the surface.
Benefits may include:
-
smoother skin texture, as new collagen refines the skin's surface and evens out irregularities
-
reduced acne scars, with the remodelling process helping to soften indented and post acne marks over a course of treatments
-
improved pigmentation, as increased cell turnover helps break down uneven tone and sun damage
-
smaller pores, with firmer surrounding skin making enlarged pores appear visibly refined
-
brighter complexion, as improved circulation and cell renewal restore radiance to dull, tired skin
-
improved hydration, particularly when combined with a hyaluronic or NCTF infusion during treatment
-
reduced fine lines, as collagen and elastin rebuild the skin's structural support
-
firmer, more resilient skin, with stronger dermal support developing over the weeks following each session
-
Because microneedling stimulates collagen production, results continue to improve for several weeks after treatment, and build progressively with each session. This is why a course of treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart delivers noticeably more than a single appointment, and why microneedling is often described as an investment in long term skin health rather than a quick fix.
Microneedling for Acne Scars
Microneedling is widely used to treat acne scarring and uneven skin texture, and it is one of the most common reasons clients come to see us in Fairfield.
The treatment helps break down old scar tissue while stimulating new collagen formation, addressing the cause of indented scarring rather than sitting on the surface. Acne scars form when the skin's natural repair process is disrupted during a breakout, leaving the collagen structure beneath the surface uneven. Microneedling restarts that repair process in a controlled way.
Over a series of treatments, this process can help:
soften acne scars, particularly rolling and boxcar type indentations, as new collagen fills the depressed areas from beneath
smooth skin texture, evening out the surface irregularities left behind by past breakouts
reduce redness and pigmentation left by acne, including post inflammatory marks that linger after a breakout has healed
improve overall skin clarity, with more even tone and a refined surface
strengthen the skin's structure, making it more resilient over time
Because scar remodelling takes time, acne scarring responds best to a course of treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, with improvement building progressively after each session. Realistic expectations matter here. Microneedling can meaningfully soften and improve the appearance of acne scars, but it is a gradual process rather than a single session fix, and results vary depending on scar type, depth and how long the scarring has been present.
Microneedling is not suitable during an active acne breakout, so if you are currently experiencing active acne, treatment is planned once your skin has settled. Our acne facial may be the better starting point in the meantime, and Sunny will advise honestly on the right sequence for your skin. You can also see examples of real results in our work.
How Many Microneedling Treatments Are Needed?
For optimal results, a series of 3–6 treatments is usually recommended.
Treatments are typically spaced 4–6 weeks apart to allow the skin time to regenerate new collagen.
