What Is Skin Needling?

Skin needling is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure designed to stimulate the production of collagen in order to create smoother and healthier skin. It isd a facial rejuvenation treatment and can be used for reducing acne and surgery scars, scars resulting from thermal burns, stretch marks, deep wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation, and enlarged pores, as well as tightening sagging skin.

At Skinnovation Laser Clinic we use Dermapen 4 as our Skin Needling Device. Dermapen 4 is the latest skin needling Device on the market.

 

 

 

The Benefits Of Skin Needling

Skin needling is minimally-invasive.  It is popular among both men and women due to its effectiveness and the recovery time is minimal. In some cases, patients may notice mild redness which typically subsides within 3-4 hours after the treatment. What is more, skin needling is appropriate for the treatment of certain areas that can’t undergo laser resurfacing or peeling. 

 

Who Is The Right Candidate For Skin Needling?

Skin needling is appropriate for any skin type and skin tone. This means that anyone who wishes to minimise the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, pigmentation, or wants to tighten their sagging skin should feel free to book a free consultation with our staff at Skinnovation Laser Clinic in Sydney. We will assess your needs, take a look at your skin, and provide advice on the best approach for maximum results. Make sure to remember that this procedure can be used both on the face and on the neck, providing you with enhanced skin texture, overall appearance, and skin quality in general.

There are particular disorders that may interfere with skin needling. Your skin needs to be free from eczema, rosacea, psoriasis, active acne, keloids, raised moles or skin tags, warts, and herpes. To prepare for the skin needling treatment simply do not use any lotions or makeup on the day of treatment.

 

Recovery Time and Results

As skin needling is minimally invasive the recovery time is minimal. In some cases patients experience mild redness, scaling, dryness, or mild swelling around the treated area, but these side effects typically fade quickly. The team at Skinnovation Laser Clinic will advise you on the best post-treatment care regime for your skin to yield the most optimal results. These may include the application of sunscreen or the use of a gentle cleanser.

Rejuvenation can take anywhere between 2 weeks and 6 months after the procedure, meaning that how quickly the results are evident varies from one patient to the other.  Skin needling can be repeated after a minimum of four to six weeks. During this time, the treated area of the skin should start to produce natural collagen. The number of sessions you may need to minimise or completely get rid of a particular issue depends on the severity of the issue itself.
