Microneedling
Collagen induction Therapy.
We use Dermapen 4 ™ a revolutionary micro-needling device which aims to tighten, lift and rejuvenate skin. This treatment targets textural changes associated with skin ageing and scarring. Plastic surgeons and dermatologists originally developed skin needling as a non-surgical method for tissue rejuvenation and regeneration.
Skin needling can be used for:
Sun-damaged, or aged skin
Wrinkles & fine lines
Uneven skin texture
Smokers’ lines
Skin tightening & rejuvenation
Large pores
Stretch marks
Scars (acne, surgical & some burns)
How Skin needling works.
The Dermapen™ device uses many vibrating, fine needles that create multiple micro-channels in the skin. Suitable for all skin types, the Dermapen™ works at a precise needle depth, rapidly penetrating the skin to produce tiny micro punctures. This technique stimulates the skin’s natural collagen and elastin.
Safe and painless.
Skin needling or Collagen Induction Therapy is a natural, mechanical process which works effectively without the use of chemicals. The procedure is safe and painless; it is performed after the application of a topical local anaesthetic.
Minimal downtime.
There is very little downtime post-treatment. Following the treatment, the skin, will look pink and feel warm. Any side effects post-treatment are minor and may include slight swelling and discomfort, redness or minor flaking of the skin. Mild bruising is possible in people with sensitive skin prone to bruising easily.
