How does SkinPen Microneedling work?
The principle of microneedling is based on the skin’s natural ability to repair itself by creating micro-injuries in the skin, triggering new elastin fibre and collagen synthesis. Our highly qualified Skin Therapists employ the SkinPen, a medically advanced microneedling device, to ensure the highest level of results and precision. Unlike other needling treatments, the SkinPen is proven to be a safer and requires minimal downtime. The results of microneedling are effective and long lasting.
What is Micro-Channeling?
Our Micro-channeling is a microneedling treatment that involves using a device with small needles to create microscopic channels on the skin’s surface. These channels stimulate the body’s natural healing process, which results in increased collagen production, improved skin texture and tone and a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and scars.

Microneedling Results
After your Microneedling treatment, the skin immediately begins working to repair the micro-injuries made within the layers of the skin.
Results begin to appear as little as 2 weeks after your first treatment, and will continue to improve over the course of your future treatments.
Results also depend on the depth of the needles, and the level of pressure applied – both of these factors are unique to each client and will be customised to fit your skin concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Microneedling work?
The concept of microneedling is based on the skins natural ability to repair itself whenever it encounters physical damage such as cuts, burns and other abrasions.
Immediately after an injury occurs to the skin, the body reuses the damaged collagen and elastin fibres as well as other damaged skin components to produce new ones.
Microneedling allows for controlled induction of the skins self repair mechanism by creating micro-injuries in the skin which triggers new collagen synthesis, yet does not pose the risk of permanent scarring. The result is smoother, firmer and younger looking skin!
What is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen Microneedling uses a medically advanced SkinPen device for effective collagen induction therapy. This treatment harnesses the body’s natural wound healing response through collagen remodelling to smooth the skin and significantly improve skin tone and texture. Unlike other needling treatments, SkinPen is a safer, more medically advanced Microneedling treatment producing more dramatic results with less downtime.
How many Microneedling treatments do I need?
For best results you will need a course of 6 treatments, 2-6 weeks apart.
Is Microneedling painful?
Depending on the depth of the needle, there are different levels of penetration resulting in different sensations. For most people, the SkinPen isn’t considered painful at all, while some clients may experience some slight discomfort.
Is there any downtime following a Microneedling treatment?
There is minimal downtime after a Microneedling treatment. Following a SkinPen treatment, you might have some slight tingling or redness. This will subside within 24-48 hours. During and at the end of your course of treatments, you will notice significant improvements in skin tone and texture.
