NANO-NEEDLING

Skin nano-needling utilises a medical device which perforates the skin using multiple sterile needles which vertically pierce the top layer of skin in a vibrating manner. As the device glides over the area being treated, thousands of tiny punctures are created on the skin’s surface, opening up pores and allowing for better absorption of topical treatments. The device uses shorter needles than the skin microneedling procedure so that they penetrate to a shallower level, which makes nano-needling gentler and more suitable for delicate areas.

While you might have some minor skin irritation following nano-needling (which is necessary for the rejuvenation effects to be stimulated), there should be very little redness or discomfort. Nano-needling is a very safe skin treatment with no downtime.

After a nano-needling treatment, your body will naturally start to regenerate and repair the skin, working below the surface. This means new collagen and elastin is formed, blood supply is enhanced, and new skin cells are regenerated. It usually takes up to six weeks before any visible signs of repair are seen, and this will continue over the following months.

Yes, nano-needling is safe and effective in skin of all ages. Because it is so gentle, it can be used on delicate or thinning skin, too!

Nano-needling uses shorter needles to penetrate the skin, which means the treatment reaches to a shallower level. Therefore, it can be used to treat areas with thin or delicate skin like the eye contour.

Nano-needling can target areas that skin needling cannot be used - but because nano-needling is a gentler treatment, the results are not as strong as with traditional skin needling.
