Medical Microneedling with SkinPen

At Harriet Aesthetics we offer the SkinPen micro-needling treatment to support a variety of your skin rejuvenation concerns, from Acne Scarring, Melasma, Fine Lines,Wrinkles, Stretch Marks, Pigmentation and more. SkinPen comfortably creates thousands of micro-injuries in the skin to trigger the body’s natural wound healing process. This process results in skin remodelling, including the formation of collagen and elastin, the two proteins predominantly responsible for the structure of the skin. SkinPen is an award winning, FDA Cleared, CE Certified 1 device, which is also ISO compliant for quality assurance and also holds a British Standards Institute (BSI) Kitemark certification. No other micro-needling device in the UK holds all of these together. 

SkinPen micro-needling is generally considered safe and well-tolerated. Before the treatment, a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize any discomfort. After the treatment, you may experience some redness, mild swelling, and a sensation similar to a sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few days. The downtime associated with SkinPen micro-needling is minimal, allowing you to resume your regular activities relatively quickly. At Harriet Aesthetics your sent home with a care kit lasting 5-7 days to get the most out of your treatment and maximise results. Depending on the skin concern a course of 3-6 monthly treatments could be advised for optimal treatment results. This will be discussed at consultation.
