Understanding Dull & Textured Skin
Dullness is primarily caused by a buildup of dead skin cells on the surface, which scatters light instead of reflecting it, robbing your skin of its natural glow. Uneven texture—that rough, bumpy, or pitted feeling—is often a result of collagen loss, sun damage, or the lingering effects of past acne.
While a good home skincare for textured skin routine is essential, products from brands like Aveeno or Neutrogena primarily work on the epidermis (the outermost layer). To truly improve skin texture, you need treatments that can stimulate change at a deeper, dermal level.

First-Line Treatments

Hydrafacial
This is the ultimate professional dull skin treatment. The Hydrafacial uses a unique vortex-fusion system to deeply cleanse, exfoliate dead skin cells, and painlessly extract impurities from pores. It then infuses the newly revealed skin with intensive serums filled with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid, delivering an instant, unparalleled glow.
Ideal for
Instantly brightening a dull complexion, deep cleaning pores, and providing intense hydration
Results
Immediately visible radiance and smoother-feeling skin after just one session
Management
No downtime. A perfect monthly treatment to maintain a healthy glow

RF Microneedling
To actively improve skin texture, RF Microneedling is a superior choice. This treatment combines the collagen-stimulating effects of microneedling with the skin-tightening power of radiofrequency (RF) energy. It creates controlled micro-channels in the skin, delivering RF heat deep into the dermis to trigger a powerful healing response that builds new collagen, smooths roughness, and refines pores.
Ideal for
Reducing the appearance of enlarged pores, smoothing rough texture, and improving overall skin quality
Results
Noticeable improvement in texture and firmness within a few weeks, with optimal results after a course of 3-4 treatments
Management
Minimal downtime, typically just a day of mild redness
Progressive Treatments
Advanced & Combination

Morpheus8
This is the most powerful RF microneedling device available, designed to remodel tissue at a subdermal level. It is the ultimate treatment for more significant textural issues, delivering unparalleled results in skin tightening and smoothing.
Ideal for
Deeper textural irregularities, skin laxity, and achieving a significant resurfacing effect
Results
Dramatic improvement in skin smoothness and firmness. Results are long-lasting and continue to improve over several months
Management
Requires a few days of social downtime as the skin heals from this intensive treatment

Profhilo
Known as an injectable ‘skin booster’, Profhilo is not a filler but a bio-remodelling agent. It delivers a high concentration of hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate the skin from within, triggering collagen and elastin production for a ‘lit from within’ glow and improved texture.
Ideal for
Dehydrated, crepey, or lacklustre skin that needs an intense hydration boost and improved luminosity
Results
Skin appears more hydrated, plump, and radiant. Improves fine lines and overall skin quality
Management
Two initial sessions are required one month apart. No downtime

Mesotherapy
This technique involves using ultra-fine needles to deliver a customised cocktail of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the middle layer of the skin. This nourishes the skin from the inside out, boosting radiance and improving texture.
Ideal for
Targeted nourishment to improve overall skin health, radiance, and mild textural issues
Results
Skin appears brighter, more nourished, and healthier over a course of treatments
Management
Minimal downtime, with possible mild redness for a few hours

Frequent Asked Questions
The cost depends on the chosen treatment. A single Hydrafacial session will differ in price from a course of Morpheus8. We provide a full, transparent price list during your consultation to help you choose the best option for your skin and budget.
For mild dullness, a Hydrafacial is fantastic. For more significant textural issues, RF Microneedling or Morpheus8 are generally the most effective as they stimulate deep collagen production. The ‘best’ treatment is the one that is right for your specific skin concerns, which our clinicians will help you determine.
You can make a dramatic and long-lasting improvement. However, skin texture is influenced by ageing and environmental factors, so maintenance is key. An initial course of treatments followed by periodic maintenance sessions and a good homecare routine will ensure your skin stays smooth and radiant.
Even the best skincare products have their limits. They primarily work on the skin’s surface. Professional treatments like RF Microneedling and Mesotherapy work in the deeper dermal layers to stimulate new collagen and make structural changes that topical products simply cannot achieve.
Downtime varies. A Hydrafacial has zero downtime. RF Microneedling and Mesotherapy may cause mild redness for a day. Morpheus8 can have a few days of social downtime. We will discuss all aftercare and downtime with you in detail before any treatment.
