Project Description
Information
SkinPen provides real lasting results, and is our hero treatment for treating acne scarring, pigmentation and ageing.
SkinPen is a type of Microneedling (also known as Collagen Induction/Stimulation Therapy), that uses a series of fine needles inserted into the skin, hundreds to thousands times per minute. This triggers the body’s natural wound healing process to remodel the skin, including producing new collagen and elastin. As you age, your skin gets thinner and SkinPen helps to thicken the skin with new collagen and elastin production. A thicker skin will show less fine lines and wrinkles, and healthy new collagen and elastin will give the appearance of younger looking skin.
