What is micro skin needling and how does it work?

Skin needling in Bournemouth & Poole is an increasingly popular cosmetic treatment that will help give your skin a healthy and youthful appearance. It is one of the safest skin rejuvenation treatments on the market as it does not remove the skin surface and has little downtime. It produces results comparable to those of other skin treatments such as lasers, dermabrasion, and deep chemical peels.

Dermal rolling is based on the skin’s ability to regenerate and repair itself when it encounters physical damage like cuts, burns and more. The act of the derma roller or derma pen allows for controlled induction of the skin self and its’ repair mechanism by creating micro-injuries which trigger new collagen production, yet do not pose the risk of permanent scarring.

Microskin needling is an effective way of treating:

• enlarged pores
• acne and acne scars
• chicken pox scarring
• fine lines and wrinkles
• lack of skin firmness and elasticity
• sun damage
• pigmentation

What results will I see after micro-skin needling?

There is a slight degree of redness that you will experience after the Dermaroller® / Dermapen treatment. You may notice that you have a “flushed” appearance – similar to mild sunburn. You may also experience skin tightness and mild sensitivity to touch. This will diminish greatly after a few hours following the cosmetic treatment and within the next 48 hours your skin will be completely healed and looking great!
