Micro-needling
Micro-needling is a minimally-invasive, skin-rejuvenation treatment that uses a battery-powered or cord-powered device containing very fine needles.
Service Description
The needles stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin, and facilitate the penetration into the skin of rejuvenating vitamins A and C.
Micro-needling can make your skin appear fresher and younger, as well as help to reduce pores and improve the appearance of scars and stretch marks.
The treatment is also known as skin needling, collagen induction therapy (CIT) and percutaneous collagen induction (PCI).
DermaPen Micro-needling
The technique (also known as needle dermabrasion) creates a series of wounds or channels into the dermis. As the skin starts to heal, it releases growth factors and produces collagen, both of which help to decrease acne breakouts.
The skin becomes thicker with the creation of new collagen and elastin fibres, so visibly improving skin texture.

FAQs
Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device with fine needles to create tiny punctures or micro-injuries in the skin's surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production, which leads to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
During a Microneedling treatment, a specialized device with tiny needles is gently rolled or stamped over the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries. These micro-injuries trigger the body's natural wound healing response, which includes the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. As the skin heals, it becomes thicker, firmer, and more even in texture, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and other imperfections.
Microneedling offers several benefits, including improved skin texture and tone, reduction of wrinkles, fine lines, and acne scars, increased collagen and elastin production, minimized pore size, and enhanced absorption of skincare products. It can be used to treat various skin concerns, including aging skin, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and stretch marks.
Microneedling is generally safe for all skin types and tones. However, it may not be suitable for individuals with certain skin conditions, such as active acne, eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea, or those who are prone to keloid scarring. It's essential to consult with a qualified skincare professional to determine if Microneedling is suitable for your specific skin concerns and to discuss any potential risks or side effects.
