How Does SkinPen® Work?
Collagen and elastin are essential proteins that help maintain skin structure and elasticity, contributing to a smoother, firmer appearance. As we age the production of these proteins naturally slows and declines and the appearance of sagging, fine lines and wrinkles increases as a result.
Microneedling works by utilising a device equipped with tiny needles that create controlled micro-punctures in the skin's surface. These micro-injuries trigger the skin's natural healing process, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin.

What is a SkinPen® Treatment Like?
1. Skin is cleansed
2. Numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure comfort during the treatment.
3. A hyaluronic acid gel is applied to the area so the device can glide smoothly over the surface of your skin.
4. The handheld SkinPen® is moved over the treatment area. A mild vibration may be felt, but no pain should be expected with your treatment. Some areas may be slightly more sensitive where the skin is thinner.
What’s the Downtime Associated With a SkinPen® Treatment?
Immediately after a SkinPen® treatment, your skin will be slightly flushed and red, almost like a mild sunburn. This should go down within 6-24hrs.
The following days your skin may feel tight and dry as new cells push up toward the surface and dead cells slough away.
I will guide you with aftercare - staying out of direct sunlight and wearing SPF in the following days.
Makeup can be worn the day after your treatment, making SkinPen® very easy to fit into a busy lifestyle.
How many sessions do I need ?
This depends on the individual concerns. Most patients require 3 to 6 SkinPen® treatments, spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart. This allows the skin time to heal and produce new collagen.
The number of treatments varies based on individual skin concerns;
1- 3 sessions- uneven skin tone or fine lines
3-6 sessions - moderate to severe scarring, mature wrinkles or hyperpigmentation
