Dermaroller Treatment
Dermaroller Therapy significantly improves the appearance of acne scars, sun damaged skin, wrinkles and stretch marks.
This procedure stimulates the skin naturally creating smoother, brighter, healthier and younger-looking skin.
Dermaroller Therapy provides advanced micro medical skin needling, a procedure that creates needle-columns and Each needle-column of the roller will penetrate into the dermis of the skin, which will rapidly close enabling the skin to recover quickly.
Directly following the Dermaroller Therapy procedure the skin naturally starts to regenerate itself from below the surface in the dermis. It takes time for new collagen to form but new skin cells are generated and the blood supply is enhanced almost instantly.
How many Dermaroller treatments do I need?
Although most clients report looking fresher and rested after a few days following treatment, it can take up to 6 weeks before visible signs of regeneration and repair are seen. The process will continue over the following months, providing you with a natural and long lasting enhancement. Your practitioner will normally recommend a series of 3 – 4 treatments with approximately 6 weeks between them. In treatment of acne scars and other types of scarring it may be necessary to extend your Dermaroller Therapy.

SPF50 is advised immediately after the procedure and should be continued throughout your treatment course.
