What to expect

During a SkinPen microneedling treatment, you can expect the following process:

1. Preparation

Your skin will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort during the treatment.

2. Microneedling

The SkinPen device, equipped with tiny needles, is gently passed over the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-channels stimulate the skin’s natural healing process and promote collagen and elastin production.

3. Sensation

You may feel a slight tingling or prickling sensation during the treatment, but it is generally well-tolerated, especially with the application of numbing cream.

4. Targeted Areas

The procedure can be performed on various areas of the face, neck, décolletage, or other areas of concern.

5. Customised Depth

The depth of the microneedling can be adjusted by your practitioner based on your skin’s specific needs and tolerance.

6. Application of Serums

After microneedling, therapeutic serums or growth factors may be applied to the skin to enhance the results and aid in the healing process.

SkinPen microneedling is a safe and effective procedure for addressing various skin concerns, providing visible results and rejuvenating your complexion.

Before undergoing SkinPen microneedling treatment, it’s essential to follow these pre-treatment guidelines for optimal results:

Consultation: Schedule a consultation with your therapist to discuss your medical history, skincare concerns, and treatment expectations.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimise sun exposure and avoid tanning beds for at least two weeks before the treatment to reduce the risk of skin irritation and complications.
Skin Sensitivity: Inform your therapist if you have a history of skin sensitivity, allergies, or adverse reactions to skincare treatments or products.
Stay Hydrated: Maintain adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment to support skin health and healing.
Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from consuming blood-thinning medications or supplements, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or fish oil, unless medically necessary, as they may increase the risk of bruising during the treatment.

By following these pre-treatment instructions, you can help ensure a safe and effective SkinPen microneedling experience and enhance the overall outcome of your treatment.

After undergoing SkinPen microneedling treatment, it’s essential to follow these post-treatment guidelines to promote healing and maximise results:

Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from direct sunlight and UV exposure for at least 48 hours post-treatment to prevent sunburn and minimise the risk of hyperpigmentation.
Moisturise: Keep your skin hydrated by applying a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturiser regularly to soothe and nourish the treated area.
Avoid Makeup: Refrain from wearing makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment to allow your skin to breathe and heal properly.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to support skin hydration and aid in the body’s natural healing process.
Minimise Physical Activity: Avoid strenuous exercise and activities that may cause excessive sweating or friction on the treated area for at least 24 hours post-treatment to prevent irritation and discomfort.
Avoid Hot Showers and Saunas: Steer clear of hot showers, steam rooms, saunas, and hot tubs for at least 48 hours post-treatment to prevent excessive sweating and irritation.
Protect Your Skin: Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily, even on cloudy days, to protect your skin from UV damage and maintain the results of your treatment.
Follow-Up Care: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments with your therapist and adhere to their recommendations for ongoing skincare maintenance and treatment.
Be Patient: Allow your skin time to heal and regenerate. You may start to see initial results within a few days, with continued improvement over the following weeks as collagen production increases.

By following these post-treatment instructions, you can support the healing process, minimise potential side effects, and optimise the results of your SkinPen microneedling treatment.
