MICRO-NEEDLING USING DERMAPEN:

Derma pen promotes scar less healing and natural collagen production similar to fractional laser treatments, laser resurfacing and chemical peels but without the Side-effects and downtime. 

WHAT IS MICRO-NEEDLING?

Micro-needling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure used to treat many skin conditions via collagen & elastin production.

HOW DOES MICRO-NEEDLING WORK?

Tiny sterile needles are used to puncture the skin with decision of depth and speed.  This triggers your body’s own repair mechanism to produce more collagen and elastin.  This collagen and elastin rich tissue results in a more even skin tone and texture.

WHAT IS INVOLVED AND IS THE TREATMENT PAINFUL?

Topical anaesthetic cream is applied prior to the treatment. This provides a pleasant treatment experience.  The Dermapen (Professional advanced automatic micro needling machine) is passed over the treated area using a gliding serum. Many patients have likened it to the feeling of an electric toothbrush on your skin.  The speed and depth of the tiny needles can be accurately controlled which enables us to treat sedative and previously difficult-to-reach places even around eyes , nose and lips. 

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTERWARDS?

After treatment a soothing & hydrating mask is applied. Most commonly some itching, flaking or redness may appear for a very short period. Expect brighter, smoother, firmer skin and a more youthful complexion.  The amazing results combined with virtually no downtime are the reasons why it is so popular among A-listers prior to red carpet events.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?

Excellent results can be seen after one treatment however it is recommended that best results are seen after 4-6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.

HOW LONG DO THE RESULTS LAST?

Results get progressively better after each treatment as more collagen and elastin are produced over time. Results can last up to 18-24 months especially if combined with PRP Platelet Rich Plasma  or Mesotherapy.

IS IT SUITABLE FOR ME?

There are a number of medical conditions and or medicines that may affect the decision to treat or the treatment plan.

A full medical history and assessment of your expectations is necessary in advance of any decision to treat.
