Punctures to the skin using precision medical micro-needles attached to a highly-engineered roller to induce collagen growth. Collagen growth is the key to skin repair.

Skin needling is used clinically in these cases:Acne scars, traumatic/surgical scars, wrinkles ,restore skin tightness, skin texture.

Skin needling is a leading clinical choice for scar reduction. It has been performed for many years, and has gained a lot of credibility.

The micro-needles cause thousands of stimulating dermal “injuries” to the skin. This induces a natural response that produces new collagen. The production of new collagen continues for up to 12 months after the procedure. Depressed acne scars, wrinkles, skin texture and tightness are all improved as a result.

Our treatments begin by the application of local anaesthetic cream to the treated area for one hour. Local anaesthetic injections are then administered to numb the treated areas. After these local anaesthetic injections are given, there is no sensation from the actual skin needling. It is also possible to use inhaled anaesthetic gas or some light anaesthetic/intravenous sedation in conjunction with the above to help reduce any discomfort.The skin roller is rolled over the skin multiple times to induce thousands of microscopic injuries to the skin.

After skin needling, it is possible to add topical retinoids other medical grade skin care to the skin to further enhance the effects of skin needling and collagen production.
