MICRONEEDLING

What is Professional Microneedling?

Microneedling, using the EDS Rejuvenate device, is an electronic, micro-skin-needling procedure that stimulates your skin to naturally generate and repair itself. As part of this stimulation new collagen can be formed, new cells generated and the structure of the dermis, enhanced. This natural process takes time, so it can take up to 4 to 6 weeks before you see significant results, but you can expect to see an improvement in your skin’s texture and tone – and the results you see over time will look natural and be long lasting.

Key Benefits

  • Improvement in uneven texture of skin
  • Reducing dark spots / hyperpigmentation
  • Surface scarring / acne scarring
  • Improvement of fine links & wrinkles
  • Dark circles and bags under the eyes

All this is to work on giving your face a glowing and healthy appearance; although, micro-needling can be used on all skin parts of the body (neck, décolleté, arms, legs, etc).

What does the treatment involve?

This type of advanced skin needling procedure involves using the electronic eDermastamp microneedling device, to create an abundance of channels in the outer layers of your skin.
In turn, this stimulates rapid natural repair and regeneration of the skin for an appearance that is ultimately more youthful, healthy and smooth.

The treatment is fully adjustable in terms of needling depth, allowing for a completely personalised procedure depending on your wants and needs as a patient.

We will apply a topical anaesthetic to the surface of your skin prior to the treatment so as to eliminate pain and discomfort even further. Immediately after your procedure we will place you under the Celluma LED light to help aid skin repair and rejuvenation.

Is there any downtime?

Most people will experience mild redness and some tightness. The same way you may feel with a mild sunburn. These effects may last for 24-48 hours and there may be pinpoint bleeding and/or bruising.
Within several days to several weeks you will notice a smoother, brighter, and more radiant appearance.

However, the full effects of the treatment do not appear until several months later.

The inflammatory reaction of the skin is extremely short and fades significantly within hours from redness to pinkish. In order to reduce visible redness, we provide a hyaluronic acid face mask to use at home, after the procedure – as well as a high factor SPF.

Does it hurt?

With the use of topical numbing cream, pain is minimised to a slight scratching sensation. Patients generally find this is more than tolerable.

Your aftercare pack also includes products which help soothe your skin, after your treatment.

Cost & frequency

Each microneedling session is £160. Micro-needling can be safely repeated every 4-6 weeks until you achieve your desired results.

For collagen induction purposes, we recommend to start with 3 treatments, but with a minimum separation time of 4 to 6 weeks between treatments.

For scar reduction an average of 3 to 6 treatments are recommended.

The number of treatments required will depend on how each individual responds to the treatments, and the extent of the damage at the beginning.

You can purchase your first 3 sessions upfront for £430, saving you £50.
