What is Digital Skin Needling ?
Digital Microneedling is an automatic device that stamps the skin to create thousands of tiny microchannels allowing product absorption by up to 80% vs topical application which only provides 7-10%.
The effect of the micro channels caused by digital micro needling pen also triggers the body’s healing process which Increases collagen and strengthens the skin resulting in:
-
- Rejuvenated
- Smoother
- Younger looking skin
It is great for:
-
- Uneven skin texture
- Acne Scarring
- Large Pores
- Lines & Wrinkles
- Loss of Volume
- Dull Skin
- Some rosacea can be treated
A digital micro needling pen uses a unique electronic mechanism which allows the therapist to control treatment intensity to tailor the treatment to your needs. A solution is also applied to the skin, containing hyaluronic acid, minerals, vitamins and peptides. These act by stimulating cell renewal and as well as improving the skin contours and elasticity.
The Treatment has a rejuvenating effect on the skin so it is great as an anti-ageing treatment. The reduced intensity causes less downtime than a deeper micro needling treatment, whilst still achieving a youthful complexion.

The treatment protocol also includes the option for a rejuvenating, healing or brigtening skin peel. An aftercare kit is now included with all treatments.
Traditional skin needling using a hand tool is available however we feel that the digital microneedling is far more comfortable and precise than class skin needling devices.
