Fine lines, wrinkles, sagging, crepey, dull, and tired-looking skin are all unfortunate side effects of the ageing process. Environmental factors such as sun damage and pollution and lifestyle choices like drinking, smoking, and stress all play their part, but our skin’s ability to renew cells also dramatically slows down. This is what leads to more pronounced lines and wrinkles and a decrease in the vitality and radiance of our skin.
With micro-needling, we can help stimulate the skin, promoting the production of collagen and elastin, which leaves it looking brighter, plumper, and much more taut. With the application of vitamin C and hyaluronic acid directly after a micro-needling treatment, we can also help ensure these two skin heroes get to work quickly and more effectively.
We’ll use a handheld device – at Spingmount Dental & Aesthetics, we use Dermapen to create tiny punctures in the skin. This tiny, microscopic damage triggers the body’s wound-healing process, leading to the production of collagen and elastin to revive and rejuvenate the skin.
This is just a 30-minute treatment, but with the numbing cream, it can take up to an hour.
You should be able to return to your day, but your skin might appear red and sunburnt immediately afterwards.
We’ll use a topical numbing cream to make sure you’re comfortable and pain-free.
We’ll give you a personalised skincare routine that you’ll have to follow for seven days afterwards to ensure the most successful results.
