Product Information

When microneedling , it’s important to remember that different areas of the face will require a slightly different technique. Pulling from the bottom of your jaw, gently make upwards strokes towards your cheeks (being careful not to overlap where you’ve previously needled). 9. Upper lip Vitamin C: For those looking to brighten the complexion and fade pigmentation and dark spots, a high quality Vitamin C serum will enrich the dermis with antioxidants that neutralise harmful free-radicals in the atmosphere that can bring about premature ageing. Vitamin C is considered to be an ‘active’ ingredient so if you have sensitive skin, as with anything, do a patch test of your Vitamin C serum before applying to the whole face. After a few treatments, you might begin to see a diminished appearance of enlarged pores, reduction of fine lines or a softening of pigmentation spots. Is there anyone who can’t do nano needling?

Like all medical and aesthetic/cosmetic procedures, there are certain contraindications that apply. Nano needling is not recommended for the following circumstances:The Dr Pen Auto Microneedle System is a revolutionary micro-needling skincare device which aims to tighten, lift and rejuvenate your skin. There have been many studies on the effectiveness of microneedling. Please have a read here.

Nano needling is safe to perform on all skin types and colours and so long as care is taken to protect the skin after nano needling, there is no risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (hyperpigmentation that occurs as a result of inflammation or trauma). This is because nano needling does not penetrate deep into the skin where melanocytes (protein fibres composed of melanin, which produce pigment) lie, so no melanocytes are disrupted or inflamed during the needling process. As we grow older, the cycle of new skin growth slows and less collagen and elastin are produced. This results in fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots (pigmentation). Applying creams and serums on your face may succeed to moisturise the outer layer of dead skin, but no penetration takes place to the living part of the skin. The active molecules are simply too big to pass through the ultra protective epidermis layer. Dr Pen creates "micro-channels" which allow for deeper penetration of serums and ingredients results in higher efficacy, meaning you get more out of your serums than usual. After treatment: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and apply a nourishing moisturiser. Avoid products containing fragrances or active ingredients (vitamin C, A/Retinols), acids (lactic acid, AHA, BHA), scrubs or toners which may cause irritation. Your skin may experience mild swelling, bruising, peeling and flaking. You can minimise the dryness/flakiness during the healing process by keeping the skin moisturised, which will reduce shedding and alleviate tightness. Avoid exercising, sweating excessively, swimming or applying makeup for 24 hours. You must apply a high protection sunscreen when going outdoors, and avoid prolonged sun exposure.Within a few days to a week after nano needling, you can expect your skin to look a little brighter and more hydrated.This is normal and nothing to worry about, just ensure to keep your skin hydrated with a good Hyaluronic Acid serum! Nano needling is a non-invasive skin treatment that heralds a multitude of benefits - improved tone and texture, reduced appearance of enlarged pores, improvement to fine lines and reduced pigmentation.

This minor precaution will ensure that your skin is not irritated. What can you expect after nano needling? Peptides help the skin remain intact by keeping the skin firm, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, and boosting overall texture and tone. As with hyaluronic acid, always choose a fragrance-free formula to avoid any potentially reactive ingredients. Our bodies naturally produce EGF, but as with all good things, the production decreases with age, which slows down the speed at which the skin can repair itself. If you’re noticing early signs of aging in your skin, it’s probably a good time to start incorporating EGF into your routine. You might want to do so earlier if you find your skin experiences scarring or red marks after breakouts. EGF (epidermal growth factor) is used in medicine to speed up wound recovery, and also has multiple benefits for skin, including reducing the appearance of wrinkles, improving hydration, and preventing hyperpigmentation.

TIP: Always remember to apply Hyaluronic Acid to the area that you’re about to needle right before needling.This will help the pen to glide across the skin effortlessly. 6.
