Skinpen Microneedling

This treatment is a trusted procedure that addresses common skin concerns non-invasively. If you want to know whether the procedure may suit you, book your consultation to discuss..

The treatment can be effective for both men and women of various ages with skin tones ranging from light to tanned. If you’re unsure, consult with our experienced team about your goals.

Treatment sessions may be successful on their own. However, incorporating LED Light Therapy after each session may be suitable depending on your therapist’s advice and instructions.

Patients who have active skin cancer in the area they want to treat should avoid this procedure. Those with irritated skin, open wounds, bleeding disorders and allergies to stainless steel also won’t be able to receive treatment. Lastly, patients taking medications that contain isotretinoin and women who are pregnant or nursing, won’t be approved for this treatment.

The treatment is minimally invasive, which means the risk of side effects is lower than that of invasive procedures. Your skin therapist will take you through any potential side effects during your consultation. Following specific aftercare instructions will also keep any effects to a minimum.

This is dependent on the patient – the recovery process is slightly different for everyone directly after a procedure. Most patients are able to resume their usual activities the next day. However, this excludes any activities that would produce excess sweat and irritate the skin.

Treatment won’t result in the complete removal of scars. Discuss your expectations with your practitioner to ensure they are realistic.

Treatment may target the appearance of concerns like melasma but cannot remove it completely or prevent it from recurring.

In most instances, clients need more than one session to achieve their desired outcome. The number of treatments required will depend on the condition of your skin and what you want to treat. Your skin therapist will assist you with a personalised treatment plan based on your needs. This treatment plan is reviewed later on once your skin starts to respond to treatment.

The results are considered lasting in most cases. However, multiple sessions and maintenance sessions are highly recommended.

It can take anywhere from three to six months to see results after treatment. This is mainly because the skin needs time to heal. Ultimately, results and timelines will be dependent on your treatment plan.

It’s best if you use skincare products recommended by your therapist following treatment sessions. After each treatment, your skin may be more sensitive, which is why the products you use matter. Certain products end up causing an allergic reaction when the skin has never absorbed them that deeply.
