What it is
Microneedling is a facial technique that works on the skin using micro-needles. It's a widely used technique in the facial aesthetics field, usually built into skincare routines that go beyond a standard facial cleanse.
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
As is typical with in-salon facial treatments, the appointment usually includes a skin assessment, cleansing of the area beforehand, application of the treatment, and some final care tips. Duration and number of sessions vary case by case and are discussed at your initial consultation.
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
At Anaël, every facial treatment is assessed individually based on skin type and each person's goals.
Before booking, a prior consultation with the Anaël team helps confirm whether this treatment suits your skin and your goals.
Alternatives at Anaël
A facial cleanse is usually the standard starting point within facial care, while Hydrafacial focuses on a multi-step hydration protocol. A carbon peel can be another alternative or complement, depending on the goal. The Anaël team can help you weigh up which option best suits your skin.
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.
