MESORESURFACING™ – A New Generation of Advanced Skin Renewal
An educational guide by Skin Essentials Aesthetic Clinic St Marys
Skin resurfacing has progressed far beyond traditional methods. Today, clients are looking for treatments that deliver real results with minimal downtime and without the aggressiveness of needle-based procedures. One of the most innovative approaches in modern skin science is MESORESURFACING™, an advanced microneedling-like treatment designed to refine texture, brighten the complexion and support overall skin rejuvenation.
At Skin Essentials Aesthetic Clinic St Marys, MESORESURFACING™ is quickly becoming one of our most requested treatments due to its ability to stimulate visible improvements in skin tone, hydration and smoothness. This blog explains what MESORESURFACING™ is, how it works, who it is suitable for and what you can expect during and after the treatment.
What Is MESORESURFACING™
MESORESURFACING™ is a professional resurfacing treatment created by pHformula. It is designed to mimic the rejuvenating effects of microneedling while offering a non-invasive, needle-free approach.
Instead of using needles to create controlled micro-injuries, the treatment uses purified hydrolysed spicules, which act as micro-exfoliating structures. These spicules create thousands of microchannels on the surface of the skin, allowing advanced actives to penetrate more effectively while stimulating cellular turnover.
The result is improved texture, clarity, hydration and radiance, with continued improvement in the days following treatment.
How MESORESURFACING™ Works
MESORESURFACING™ is based on a combination of advanced resurfacing science and multi-layered hydration. Here's how the process benefits your skin:
1. Microchannel Formation
The hydrolysed spicules create tiny channels on the skin’s surface. These microchannels encourage natural cell renewal and enhance the delivery of active ingredients.
2. Increased Absorption of Actives
Because the microchannels remain active for up to 48–72 hours, hydrating and strengthening actives can penetrate more effectively.
3. Gentle but Effective Epidermal Stimulation
The controlled resurfacing effect encourages smoother, brighter and more refined skin without the downtime associated with traditional microneedling.
4. Multi-layer Hydration
The formula includes various molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to hydrate at multiple levels of the skin.
5. Improvement in Skin Health and Structure
By supporting resurfacing and hydration simultaneously, MESORESURFACING™ helps refine fine lines, reduce dullness and enhance overall skin quality.
What the Treatment Feels Like
Unlike relaxation facials, MESORESURFACING™ is designed to stimulate change in the skin. For this reason, the sensation is noticeably different.
Clients commonly describe it as:
“A little uncomfortable”
“Like fine sand being rubbed across the skin”
This sensation is normal and comes from the hydrolysed spicules working within the upper layers of the skin. The intensity varies depending on individual skin sensitivity, but most clients tolerate the treatment well.
Who MESORESURFACING™ Is Suitable For
MESORESURFACING™ is ideal for clients wanting improvement in:
✔ Uneven texture
✔ Dull or tired-looking skin
✔ Fine lines

✔ Dehydration
✔ Loss of radiance
It is appropriate for a wide range of skin types and can be customised according to your skin strength and goals.
Contraindications may include:
Active infection
Compromised skin barrier
Recent sunburn
Certain medical conditions
A professional skin assessment is required prior to treatment.
