Microneedling at Skinity Clinic uses a precision medical microneedling device to create a controlled pattern of micro-channels in the skin, triggering a natural wound-healing cascade that stimulates new collagen and elastin production in the dermis. MUDr. Martin Bortlík performs or supervises all microneedling sessions, adjusting needle depth (0.5–2.5 mm) to the target concern and skin zone — superficial for brightening and texture, deeper for acne scarring and stretch marks. The procedure is performed with topical anaesthetic cream for comfort, and a therapeutic serum (hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, or PRP from the patient's own blood) is infused through the open channels immediately after needling to maximise absorption. Most patients experience 24–48 hours of redness similar to mild sunburn, after which skin looks noticeably smoother and more luminous.
About this treatment
Microneedling (also termed collagen induction therapy, CIT) is a minimally invasive skin remodelling technique in which a motorised pen-style device with a sterile disposable cartridge of fine needles (typically 0.2 mm diameter, 9–36 needles) stamps or stamps/glides across the skin at controlled depth and frequency settings. Each needle pass creates a micro-channel penetrating to the target depth in the dermis without removing any tissue. The channels are…
The biology
Micro-injury activates the coagulation cascade and calls inflammatory mediators (platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor, fibroblast growth factor) to the wound site. These recruit fibroblasts that lay down new collagen type I and III and elastin fibres in the remodelling phase. Over 4–8 weeks, this new matrix restructures the dermis, improving firmness and reducing scar depth. Simultaneously, micro-channels provide transient permeation…
