Restore Your Vibrant Youthful Glow with Skin Needling

Our skin needling treatment is a highly effective way to boost collagen production, essential for improving skin tone, texture, and elasticity. This leads to a radiant, healthy, and youthful appearance.

Utilising advanced skin needling technology, this treatment intensively stimulates collagen production, a vital protein for keeping skin volumised, firm, bouncy and tight. The process initiates the skin’s natural healing mechanism using fine needles, effectively targeting a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation, sun damage, and stretch marks.

As a fast, safe, and minimally invasive procedure, skin needling offers significant skin rejuvenation without the need for surgery or extensive downtime.

Revitalise Your Skin with Advanced Micro-needling Technology

Experience the benefits of our advanced micro-needling treatment, a revolutionary method known for its collagen-boosting capabilities. This minimally invasive procedure uses ultra-fine needles to create tiny punctures in the deeper layers of the skin. These controlled micro-injuries trigger the skin’s natural healing process, leading to an increase in collagen production.

Collagen plays a crucial role in maintaining skin’s firmness, tone, and youthful appearance. Our microneedling treatment effectively rejuvenates the skin, making it smoother, firmer, and more voluminous. It can be particularly effective in reducing fine lines and wrinkles, lightening pigmentation and acne scars, and addressing issues like sun damage, enlarged pores, and improving under-eye skin quality.

When you visit our clinic for a skin needling treatment, here’s the process you can expect:

  • We’ll start with an initial skin assessment to understand your specific needs.
  • Your skin will be cleansed, followed by the application of a numbing cream for comfort throughout the procedure.
  • Our skilled professionals will then use ultra-fine needles to gently puncture the skin, a process designed to stimulate collagen production and natural healing.
  • To conclude the treatment, we’ll recommend soothing masks or serums to aid in the healing process and calm the skin, leaving you with a refreshed feeling.

Dermapen Skin Needling: Frequently Asked Questions

Skin needling is a professional technique that involves the use of very fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin’s surface. These small perforations stimulate the body’s natural wound healing processes, primarily the production of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are essential for maintaining skin’s strength and elasticity, contributing to skin rejuvenation. This process effectively improves skin texture and firmness, and reduces the appearance of scars, pores, and wrinkles, making it an effective solution for enhancing overall skin health and appearance. For hair, skin-needling can stimulate natural healing and blood flow to hair follicles, encouraging hair growth and improving hair density.

The number of skin needling sessions required can vary based on individual skin concerns and desired outcomes. Generally, a series of 3-6 treatments is optimal, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. For more extensive skin issues, such as deeper lines or scars, additional sessions may be beneficial. Your skincare professional will assess your skin and recommend a personalised treatment plan to achieve optimal results. It’s also common to have maintenance sessions periodically to sustain the benefits of the treatment.

Our professional skin needling treatment offers several advantages over at-home rollers:

1. Depth Precision and Safety: Our treatments are performed using professional devices that allow precise control over needle depth, ensuring effective and safe penetration tailored to your skin’s specific needs. In contrast, at-home rollers have a fixed needle depth, which may not be suitable for all skin types or concerns.
2. Sterilisation and Hygiene: We maintain the highest standards of sterilisation and hygiene. Our needles are single-use and sterile, minimising the risk of infection. At-home rollers can be challenging to sterilise effectively, increasing the risk of skin irritation or infection.
3. Professional Expertise: Our treatments are administered by trained professionals who can tailor the procedure to address your specific skin concerns and provide aftercare advice. Incorrect use of at home needle-rollers can lead to skin damage and increase the risk of scarring.
4. Comfort and Pain Management: We provide a more comfortable experience with the option of topical numbing agents, which are not typically used with at-home treatments.

Dermapen skin microneedling is suitable for all skin types and tones, making it an ideal treatment option for those looking to reverse signs of ageing, improve skin volume, tone, texture and appearance, and diminish imperfections such as scarring, enlarged pores and pigmentation.

Skin needling is not suitable for people with active acne, an active skin infection or keloid scarring. Your qualified therapist will advise on whether Dermapen treatment is a suitable option for you in your initial consultation, as well as provide guidance on alternative treatment options if needed.

Immediately after your treatment, your skin will look as though it’s been sunburnt, with redness subsiding within 1-3 days, depending on your skin type. You should avoid washing your face for the first 8 hours.

While it’s safe to return to work and normal activities after your session, some patients prefer to stay home for the first couple of days, until the sunburnt appearance of their skin has reduced.

Most patients only experience mild discomfort during the procedure. We’ll apply a topical anaesthetic to minimise sensation in the area, as well as a cooling mask and healing serums to speed up recovery following your treatment.

As collagen takes some time to renew, it can take a few months for optimal results to be experienced, with improvements appearing gradually during that time. That said, many people notice a plumper appearance and healthy glow within a few days of their treatment.

Our highly personalised level of service means that we’ll tailor a treatment plan to suit your specific needs, skin concerns, and desired results. As a result, treatment pricing will vary from patient to patient.

During your initial consultation, one of our trained doctors will conduct an assessment of your skin, discuss your situation, and develop a customised plan for your treatment. This will include a detailed breakdown of costs, timeframes and what to expect.
