Say goodbye... to lines & wrinkles, sun damage, pigmentation, acne scars & stretch marks...

What is Dermaroller Therapy?

Dermaroller Therapy, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, Microneedling and Skin Needling, is an innovative, non-surgical skin regeneration procedure that use tiny micro medical needles on the skin to encourage natural regeneration and repair - leaving you with smoother, brighter, healthier, younger-looking skin.

Dermarolling treatment is usually applied to the entire face, or areas of the body, whereas Wrinkle Needling uses a single needle (similar to those used for micropigmentation) that is applied to specific areas only.

Both Wrinkle Needling and Dermarolling stimulate collagen production which is generated as the skin attempts to heal itself. Over a period of a few weeks, the collagen regenerates - plumping up skin, filling out fine lines and bringing a more youthful fullness to the skin.

Dermaroller Therapy offers amazing results without the inconvenient ‘down time’ that comes with more aggressive Laser treatments and medium and deep Chemical Peels.

Wrinkle Needling & Dermarolling facials help to stimulate the skin to repair itself without adding foreign substances to the body or taking anything away.

What skin conditions can be treated with Dermarolling?


It is an ideal & effective treatment for:
  • Anti-ageing, lines, wrinkles and lax skin
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Pitted acne scarring
  • Ice pick scarring
  • Rosacea
  • Stretch marks

What happens during your procedure?

  • After gently cleansing your skin, a topical anaesthetic is applied and left on for 20-30 mins.
  • We then roll over your skin with a 1.5mm dermaroller, making tiny incisions in your skin.
  • A serum is applied and gently rubbed in to enhance the effects of the treatment.
  • If you're having a facial treatment, we then apply a  soothing peptide mask for 10-15 mins.
  • Finally, a rich moisturiser is applied to finish off your treatment.

Does it work?

In short, yes!  Dermarolling is very effective for treating scar tissue such as stretch marks as it stimulates collagen regeneration and activates melanocytes, which means stretch marks not only reduce in size but regain the natural colour of the skin, reducing their appearance dramatically.

Results when used to treat scars can last up to seven years.

A single treatment can produce noticeable results.  However, a programme of 3 to 6 treatments spaced approx 6-weeks apart is often recommended to achieve optimum results.  I can advise you during your consultation.

Are there any contra-indications?

You will be required to complete medical & consent forms to make sure you are suitable for receiving this treatment but there are very few contra-indications.  However, you may be asked to delay treatment or seek permission from your doctor if any of the following apply:

  • Pregnancy & breast-feeing
  • Active herpes simplex (cold sores)
  • Recent radiation or chemotherapy
  • Recent wounds
  • Warts
  • Hypertrophic/keloid scars
  • Recent cryotherapy
  • Active eczema/psoriasis
  • Recent use of Roaccutane
  • Sunburn
  • Broken skin

Are there any side effects to Dermarolling?

This therapy use a natural process which has an excellent safety profile & no side effects when used by a trained aesthetic practitioner.

Does it hurt?

This treatment can be moderately uncomfortable.  Some areas of the face and body are more sensitive than others and you may feel some prickling sensation during the procedure. However, ample numbing cream is applied prior to, and sometimes during, the treatment which makes the process more comfortable.
 

How long does the procedure take?

You should allow approx one & half hours for your first treament which will include a consultation and completion of consent forms etc..  Thereafter, one hour for each treatment.

How many treatments will I need?

You may start to see a difference around  a week after your first treatment and a course of 3 treatments is usually sufficient, spaced 6-8 weeks apart.  However, if you have more serious scarring etc. you may need additional treatments to get the desired results.  I can advise you better during your consultation.

Can I use a Dermaroller at home?
