MICRONEEDLING
What is Microneedling ?
Dermapen micro-needling is an advanced nonsurgical cosmetic procedure used to treat a wide variety of skin concerns including reducing the appearance of wrinkles, smokers’ lines, large pores and acne scars.
How does it work ?
You will have a consultation to ensure that you are suitable for microneedling treatment.
During the procedure the area being treated is cleansed and a local anaesthetic cream is applied to make the procedure comfortable .
The Dermapen is passed over the area to be treatment, inserting tiny needles into the skin.
​
This leaves minute puncture wounds which triggers the body’s wound healing response and encourages the body to renew skin cells in that area.
​
While the skin is repairing, the production of collagen and elastin is increased, plumping the
area and causing a reduction in wrinkles and scarring.
