Microneedling

Microneedling is a natural process that stimulates the body’s own repair and renewal process to create collagen. Micro-fine needles are adjusted to different depths and speeds to create precise fractional puncture channels on the surface of the skin.  

Dermapen’s advanced  device offers precise depth control and customizable settings for optimal results tailored to your skin’s unique needs.

• Stop the use of actives like retinols, exfoliators or any AHA’s 4 days before. A gentle, simple homecare routine is best.
• Wear your SPF 50 everyday and be extra aware of sun exposure ie wear sunglasses and a hat when outdoors and re-apply your SPF often.

• Use your provided after-care cream once 3 hours post treatment and then again just before bed on the first day. No other cleansing or products please. Thereafter use as your moisturiser 2x per day until finished.
• It is optional but suggested that you purchase your HOCL Rescue Mist (R250) to help calm and heal your skin.
• No make-up or SPF on the day of your treatment, SPF and light make-up can be worn from the next morning.

• Very important to wear your SPF from day 2 onwards everyday, re-applying often and stay out of the sun for 2 weeks.
