Microneedling is a facial-care option for anyone who wants to give more focused attention to skin texture and overall appearance.

What it is

A salon-based facial care appointment that gives one specific priority closer attention. It's usually chosen to work on skin texture, visible pores, or the overall appearance of the face, as part of an ongoing facial care routine.

Common goals

It's usually chosen to work on skin texture, visible pores, or the overall appearance of the face, as part of an ongoing facial care routine.

Who it may suit

It may appeal to anyone looking for a facial treatment focused on skin texture rather than just cleansing or hydration. As with any device-based facial treatment, the final decision is made together with the Anaël team after assessing your skin.

Treatment areas

Applied mainly to the face, in areas assessed individually based on each person's goals.

What a typical appointment looks like

The appointment begins with a brief conversation about what you are looking for and how your skin feels that day. Before starting, the team explains the focus of the service and any relevant guidance.

What you might feel

The sensation during an in-salon facial treatment is usually gentle and well tolerated, though it varies depending on the technology used and the area treated. The team walks you through what to expect at your pre-session consultation.

Preparation

As a general guideline before a facial treatment, it's advisable to arrive with clean skin, without makeup if possible, and to mention any allergy, medication, or relevant skin condition to the team. The team adds any further guidance at your pre-treatment consultation.

Aftercare

After a facial treatment, a gentle care routine is usually recommended, with sun protection and avoiding irritating products in the following hours. The team gives you specific aftercare guidance at the end of the session, based on the area treated and your skin.

Some facial treatments can cause mild, temporary redness, similar to that of a deep facial cleanse. The team explains which reactions are common and how to care for your skin afterward.

A treatment adapted to you

Dermapen / Microneedling is not presented as a one-size-fits-all formula. The appointment starts with a clear conversation about your priority and the kind of care you are looking for.

If you are deciding between Dermapen / Microneedling and another option, the Anaël team can help you compare them before you book.

Alternatives at Anaël

Facial cleansing is often the starting point for maintenance; Hydrafacial has its own place in the facial-care menu; microneedling gives more attention to the conversation around texture. The team can help you compare these options based on what you are looking for.

Common reasons to consult

Usually sought out for uneven texture, visible pores, or superficial marks on the skin, as part of more targeted facial care than the everyday routine.

Frequently asked questions

Is it an original Dermapen?

Microneedling is a recognised facial technique within the aesthetics field; here we use that general term rather than asserting a specific brand name. The Anaël team can give you more detail on the equipment during your prior consultation.

What is it usually chosen for?

It's usually chosen to work on skin texture, visible pores, or the overall appearance of the face, as part of a more targeted facial care routine.

How does it differ from a facial cleanse or a Hydrafacial?

They are three facial-care options with different focuses: hands-on maintenance, a distinct in-salon option, and a more texture-focused conversation. The Anaël team can help you compare them according to your priority.

Do I need a prior consultation?

Yes. As with any device-based facial treatment, a prior consultation with the Anaël team is recommended to assess whether this treatment suits your skin.
