Procedure FAQs
-
SkinPen has an attached sterile disposable cartridge tip containing small needles that is used to glide over the skin to create tiny micro injuries. SkinPen works by breaking the old and damaged strands of collagen in target tissues via microneedling. This leads to the production of new collagen, which improves the structure and function of the skin while improvig its appearance.

Harmonises pigmentation, melasma or age spots.
Breaks down scar tissue to repair acne scarring or surgical scars.
The treatment can be performed at different depths to target specific problem areas.
Minimal downtime required after the treatment compared to other rejuvenation treatments.
