Microneedling, or using a Dermapen/Microneedling pen, involves injecting very fine sterile needles into the skin to create tiny punctures, known as micro-injuries. These micro-injuries encourage a healing process, causing collagen and elastin to develop. Together, they form a new layer of skin that is stronger, smoother and renewed, without lines, wrinkles and scars.
There is no set criterion for undergoing Microneedling, and many factors may affect a person’s skin and lead them to seek microneedling to achieve a smoother, more even appearance, such as a family history of poor skin, fluctuating body weight, or lifestyle factors.
Dermapen / Microneedling can help you address a variety of skin issues, including:
Addressing these skin conditions with Microneedling can address other issues, including:
Because Microneedling is suitable for all skin types and skin tones, anyone can enjoy its benefits.
The Microneedling procedure is more straightforward than many may believe, consisting of these simple steps:
All our treatments start with an initial consultation with one of our expert doctors, who will assess your skin health and specific concerns. The doctor will then advise whether microneedling is the best procedure or whether another treatment may suit you better.
The doctor will brief you on everything about the procedure, including the treatment process, downtime and aftercare.
As with all our facial treatments, your face will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any oil, dirt, or makeup.
The doctor will then give a local anaesthesia or just a numbing cream to minimise any discomfort.
The procedure will start with a dermapen going over your face using its tiny sterile needles. The depth at which the needles go into the surface depends on the part and skin concern.
It can be administered in 3 sessions over 18 weeks, or in a single 3-session course.
The procedure takes about 35-40 minutes, and the patient can return home the same day.
Some of the main benefits of microneedling include:
Microneedling helps in skin cell reconstruction, which boosts collagen and enhances skin flexibility for a more youthful skin.
As collagen builds up, microneedling will help in smoothening the skin texture and fade any fine lines. It works different from Botox, which helps in relaxing the facial muscles, microneedling helps in repairing the internal skin structure making it a perfect choice for long-term anti-ageing effect.
Microneedling helps in breaking down the scarred cells and generating new skin cells. This helps in reducing acne scars or any stretch marks.
Improved skin elasticity helps in reducing pores, which gives your skin a smoother texture.
Faster cell generation helps in reducing hyperpigmentation, dark spots or any other sun damage.
Below are some of the dos and don’ts after the treatment (consult our doctor for specific advice):
The skin may look a little red and flushed for the first 24-48 hours after the procedure. You may also experience mild itching after it. It can feel similar to a mild sunburn.
It is common to feel mild swelling especially around sensitive areas, like, eyes.
The skin may feel a bit dry and stretchy as it heals. You may also notice some peeling for 2-4 days after the treatment.
It is possible to notice minor bruising especially around thinner skin, like, eyes.
