Your Treatment Process
Step 1: Consultation
Step 2: During the Treatment
Step 3: Post-Treatment Care
We begin with a personalised consultation to assess your skin’s condition and goals. This ensures the treatment plan is tailored to your needs.
Using the Dermapen 4, your clinician creates tiny microchannels in the skin’s surface, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. A topical serum may be applied to enhance the treatment’s effectiveness. The procedure is designed for comfort and precision.
After the session, your skin may appear slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn, but this typically subsides within 24-48 hours. We’ll provide guidance to maximise your results and care for your skin as it heals.
