Medical Micro Needling
Automated micro-needling is an innovation in aesthetics for the treatment of the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and improving the skin’s texture, tone and colour. Benefits include a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, promoting a firmer texture and softer, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of ageing. Micro -needling can help improve the appearance of hyper-pigmentation as well as uneven skin tone, large pores, acne scars, traumatic scars and stretch marks.
Medical needling stimulates the body’s own collagen production reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks and scaring. It can also help improve skin laxity and is used in hair rejuvenation. The procedure is safe and precise using 12 mico fine needles at varying depths dependent on patient need creating a series of hundreds of vertical microscopic channels into the dermis (the top layer of the skin). Various products such as Hyaluronic acid, Vitamin A & E, Retinol etc can be added to the skin at this time. A full medical history will be taken to determine each patient’s suitability for the Pen treatment.
The pen procedure has many advantages over the traditional dermal rolling or mesotherapy techniques. There is minimal down time and the procedure is virtually pain free. It can be used on all areas of the body including the face, neck décolletage, arms, hands, legs, abdomen and back.
