Skin needling has been shown to assist with:

• pigmentation
• acne scars
• fine lines and wrinkles
• enlarged pores
• stretchmarks
• scarring
• general skin tightening and rejuvenation.

At Smart Skin we use a dermal pen for our skin needling procedures. Unlike rollers, the dermal pen is a small wand that can be expertly controlled to allow for tailored treatments dependent on skin type, concern and comfort levels.

The fine needles of the dermal pen creates micro-injuries to stimulate the skin’s natural renewal process. When combined with actives, the dermal pen assists in getting those products deeper into the skin allowing for a more thorough and targeted treatment.

Once you arrive at the clinic, the therapist will clean your skin and then the treatment will begin. You will feel the slight vibration of the dermal pen as it is directed across the skin. You may experience mild stinging however due to the design of the dermal pen, discomfort should be minimal.

Most people will have visible results after the first sessions, however the full benefits will be seen upon completion of your treatment plan.

We recommend four (4) sessions over the course of 16 – 24 weeks depending on your skin type. One average that is 1 treatment every 4-6 week.

Individuals combating deeper scar tissues, may require further treatments. By discussing your concerns, and desired outcomes with our therapists we can tailor the program for you, and give you a better indication of the number of sessions required.

Skin needling is suitable for most people and skin types. Those taking medications should discuss this during the consultation prior to treatment as certain medications (for high blood pressure, diabetes, heart) may not be compatible.

It is not suitable for women who are pregnant.

If unsure, please consult your doctor prior to treatment, and discuss any issues with the therapist.

Pre treatment

We recommend minimising UV exposure prior to treatment and coming in makeup free. Makeup can be removed prior to treatment if this is not an option.

Post treatment

Following treatment we recommend clients:

• minimise UV exposure,
• pause the use of actives for a minimum of 5 days (such as AHA’s, BHA’s, Retinols, Vitamin C, Vitamin A etc.),
• minimise activities that significantly warm the face (i.e saunas, strenuous exercise)
• and do not shave the treatment area.

Side effects will vary based on the depth of your treatment, however typical side effects include:

• sensitivity,
• mild swelling,
• tightness or flaking of the skin
• bruising, and
• redness.

These should all subside within 3 days of treatment although some may experience continued recovery for up to 7 days. Our therapists will provide you with information regarding the aftercare of your skin following treatment to encourage healing.

Our professionally trained therapists are available for an in-depth consultation to assess your skin and offer advice on which treatments are best suited to achieve  glowing, healthy and radiant you.
