This article has been reviewed and approved by certified skin therapist Magdalena on August 25, 2025

We know how it feels. You're standing there in the mirror, pulling your hair back from your forehead and staring at that old acne scar you've had since high school, or maybe you've got a blemish that stubbornly refuses to go away, despite all the creams you've tried over the years. But you know what? There is hope! At Estetikcentrum in Malmö, Sweden, we help people regain their confidence every day through modern treatments, and microneedling is one of our real stars.

Why we love microneedling

Microneedling might sound a little scary at first glance, as it involves needles, after all. However, you don't have to worry and we can promise that it is far from painful or unpleasant. On the contrary, it is a gentle and effective treatment in which microscopic needles gently make small holes in the skin. These small injuries start the body's own healing process, which in turn stimulates the production of collagen. You get smoother, more even and more vibrant skin, without surgery and with minimal recovery time.

We recommend microneedling for those who want to treat:

• Acne scars
• Pigment stains
• Burns
• Fine lines and wrinkles

Microneedling before & after - what can you expect?

We are often asked what microneedling actually is and what effect it has on the skin. We think this is a good question. As mentioned earlier, microneedling is a method where we use very small needles to make the skin renew itself. As the cell renewal process begins, new, healthy and smooth skin is created where you previously had scars or damage. Immediately after the treatment, you may experience some redness, which usually subsides after a few hours. Most people find that their skin is fully restored after about three days, with a renewed glow, a more even skin tone and less visible scars. Although we recommend a course of several treatments, many people experience a clear improvement in both skin texture and smoothness after the first treatment.
