SkinPen is the World’s leading Microneedling Medical device.
Each SkinPen treatment activates the body’s natural skin-healing power to increase collagen and elastin, leaving your skin looking healthier, rejuvenated, and youthful.
SkinPen is an FDA-approved , award winning microneedling device that uses tiny, fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface.
These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural repair process, promoting collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are essential proteins that keep your skin looking firm, smooth, and youthful.
It is a popular treatment for those seeking natural skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
Ideal candidates:
Have fine lines and wrinkles.
Wants to improve skin tone and mild pigmentation.
Struggles with acne scarring.
Has enlarged pores or uneven skin texture.
Prefer a non-surgical, natural skin rejuvenation treatment.
Treatment Areas:
Face - For fine lines, acne scares, large pores and overall skin rejuvenation.
Neck - To improve skin texture and reduce signes of aging.
Décolletage - For sun damage and crepey skin.
Stretch Marks or Scars - On areas like the stomach, thighs or hips.
Treatment Process for Microneedling
Understanding each step allows you to embark on your journey to rejuvenated skin confidently.
1. Your journey begins with a thorough consultation, where your practitioner will asses your skin and create a personalised treatment plan.
2. The skin is cleansed and numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area for your comfort.
3. Our practitioners then gently move across the treatment area using the SkinPen device, creating microchannels in the skin. The entire process typically takes 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
4. Following the procedure you may experience some minor redness or swelling for 24-48 hours. We advise avoiding strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure or skincare products containing retinol or acid for a few days.
5. Results from SkinPen can be seen as early as a few weeks after the first session, with continued improvement over the next several months as new collagen is produced.
6. We recommend a course of 3-6 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart for optimal results.
