A device with fine needles (pen or roller) is passed over the skin, creating thousands of microscopic channels in the deep dermis. These controlled micro-injuries trigger the skin's natural wound-healing process, which includes the production of new collagen and elastin.
​
What They Treat
Scars (acne and surgical), uneven texture, large pores, stretch marks, fine lines, and overall skin laxity.
​
Key Service Types
Often performed with specific protocols (like the PCA Protocol) and may involve applying active serums (e.g., Hyaluronic Acid or growth factors) during the treatment to penetrate deeper through the channels.
​
Results & Duration
Initial improvement is often seen quickly, but the best results appear over 3-6 months as new collagen matures. A series of 3-6 sessions is usually recommended for optimal correction.
​
Patient Experience
A numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimise discomfort. The skin appears red and feels like a moderate sunburn immediately afterwards. Downtime usually lasts 1-3 days and may include redness and potential dryness/flaking.
