Microneedling

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that involves using tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing response and promoting collagen and elastin production. This can help improve the appearance of scars, wrinkles, sun damage, and other skin concerns. 

SkinPen Microneedling

How It Works:

Micro-injury Creation: 
The SkinPen device uses ultra-fine needles to create hundreds to thousands of micro-channels in the skin per second.
 

  • Natural Healing Response: 
    The SkinPen device uses ultra-fine needles to create hundreds to thousands of micro-channels in the skin per second. These controlled micro-injuries activate the body's natural healing process. 

​

  • Collagen and Elastin Production: 
    The healing response initiates the release of growth factors, leading to increased production of collagen and elastin. 

​

  • Skin Rejuvenation: 
    The new collagen and elastin remodel the skin's structure, improving its firmness and appearance. 

Benefits:

  • Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Smoothes the skin's surface, making lines and wrinkles less noticeable. 
     

  • Improved Skin Texture: Enhances overall skin texture and smoothness. 
     

  • Fades Scars: Effectively reduces the appearance of acne scars and other scars by remodelling scar tissue.
     

  • Minimised Pores: Helps to reduce the appearance of enlarged pores. 
     

  • Treats Other Concerns: Addresses issues like pigmentation, rosacea, and stretch marks. 
     

  • Suitable for All Skin Types: The treatment can be customized to individual needs and is safe for various skin types. 

    What to Expect:

  • Procedure Duration: A treatment session typically lasts about 30 minutes. 
     

  • Comfort: A topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort during the procedure. 
     

  • Downtime: Most patients experience mild redness, dryness, and tightness for a few days after the treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. 
     

  • Results: Visible results can often be seen after one treatment, with optimal long-term results appearing after a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
