SkinPen Precision microneedling

What is micro-needling

Micro needling is a process that helps skin regeneration and stimulates the production of collagen leading to optimum skin quality and health.

Using precision needles at a specific depth, these are motorised and pierced into the outer layers of the skin, creating micro holes. This allows the skin to change, a natural process speeds up skin cell renewal and enables the skin to produce plumpness, tightness and smoothness.

Micro needling is used in the medical industry to encourage blood flow, cell regeneration, tissue remodelling and hair follicle stimulus.

What are the benefits

Micro needling has so many benefits from scar regeneration to stimulating hair follicles before hair loss procedures.

This will create skin regeneration for all skin types, tissue remodelling for scar revision and stretch marks, collagen stimulus reducing fine lines and winkles, cell elimination for skin health or to reduce pigmentation.

This procedure is for your face, neck and your chest/decolletage but can also include body and scalp.

The process in treatment

A topical numbing cream is applied to the targeted treatment area for 20 minutes prior to the procedure. It is thoroughly removed leaving your face numb. Each individual patient has brand new, sterile needle pack, which allows the needle depth to be adjusted and applied accordingly to each individual area identified for treatment. Using specific movements for maximum coverage.

Do not be alarmed as redness is encouraged to be able to achieve full affect of the treatment. You will feel vibrations from the Skinpen rather than pain and the topical numbing cream is to reduce the sensation as much as possible for you..

Absolutely nothing can be applied to skin for 24 hours and you will be red (this has been described like a feeling of sunburn), tightness to treated area of skin and it may feel a bit sore.
