The Treatment

What is Microneedling (Dermapen)?

Microneedling uses a Dermapen device containing very fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These are too small to cause visible damage but sufficient to trigger the skin’s natural repair process, which produces new collagen and elastin as it heals.

It is one of the most evidence-supported treatments for texture, acne scarring, enlarged pores and fine lines. Numbing cream is applied first, and depth is adjusted to the area and the concern being treated.

Key Benefits

What Microneedling (Dermapen) can help with

  • Encourages the skin's own repair response
  • Helps texture and the appearance of scarring
  • Can refine enlarged pores
  • Improves overall skin quality
  • Usually a course of three

Suitability is assessed individually. Your practitioner will tell you honestly if a different treatment would suit you better, and individual results vary.

Suitability

Is Microneedling (Dermapen) right for you?

A good fit if…

  • You have acne scarring or uneven texture
  • Pores look enlarged
  • You have fine lines you would like to soften
  • You want to stimulate your own collagen
  • You can commit to a course and avoid sun afterwards

Tell us first if…

  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You are taking Roaccutane or finished within six months
  • You have active acne, eczema or a skin infection in the area
  • You have a bleeding disorder, take blood thinners, or scar keloidally

Results and how often: Expect redness like mild sunburn for one to three days. Results build over weeks as collagen forms, so a course of three to six sessions spaced four to six weeks apart is usual. Strict sun protection afterwards is essential. Price is confirmed at consultation.

Good To Know

Microneedling (Dermapen) FAQs

Does microneedling hurt?
Numbing cream is applied beforehand, so most people find it very manageable — a prickling or vibrating sensation rather than pain.
How long is the downtime?
Redness for one to three days, similar to mild sunburn, sometimes with light flaking afterwards. Plan around events accordingly.
Will it help acne scarring?
It is one of the better non-surgical options for indented acne scarring, but it takes a course and results vary with scar type. We will assess your scarring and be honest about likely improvement.
Does it hurt?
Most clients find it comfortable. You may feel warmth, mild suction or tingling depending on the treatment.
Is there downtime?
Generally little to none. Some temporary redness can occur and usually settles quickly.
How often should I have it?
That depends on your skin and goals. Your therapist will recommend a sensible interval at your appointment.
Do I need a consultation first?
Yes. Every advanced treatment begins with a consultation so we can confirm it is appropriate for you and discuss realistic outcomes. It is free and there is no obligation.
Can you guarantee the result?
No, and we would be cautious of any clinic that does. We can tell you what this treatment typically achieves and what is realistic for you, but individual responses vary.
