Microneedling

Microneedling in Orpington, Kent

For my microneedling treatments I use the SkinPen® Precision system. It’s the first microneedling device in the world to be cleared by the FDA, and globally ISO and BSI accredited.

SkinPen is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of acne scarring and wrinkles in as little as three treatments. It can also have significant positive results on melasma, rosacea, scarring from surgery, irregular skin tone, stretch marks, and dull and tired looking skin. The process itself is very hygienic - the pen is ultrasonically sealed and uses disposable cartridges to ensure no cross contamination between clients.

Microneedling works by creating thousands of micro injuries to the skin. These tiny injuries encourage the body’s natural wound healing process. This process results in the formation and remodelling of Collagen, which supports the underlying tissue.

Before treatment, a light numbing cream is applied to the areas to be treated to reduce any discomfort. All clients will also be given an aftercare pack.
