Tiny channels — big change.
Medical microneedling (Dermapen / Skinpen) to remodel acne scars, smooth fine lines and brighten dull skin. Stimulates collagen with controlled micro-injury — your own healing does the work.
What it is, plainly.
Microneedling creates thousands of microscopic channels in the dermis. The skin reads these channels as injury and floods them with growth factors, collagen, elastin and new blood vessels. Over weeks, the dermis remodels.
It's the foundation of acne-scar revision in our clinic — and a workhorse for pores, fine lines, dull tone and stretch marks. Layered with the right serums (vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, growth-factor concentrates) the channels become a delivery system for everything that struggles to penetrate intact skin.
We use medical-grade Dermapen / SkinPen at calibrated depths (0.5–2.5mm). Salon 'derma-rollers' do not approach this depth or precision and risk infection. Dermatologist-led microneedling gets you results without the setbacks.
Conditions and concerns we address.
- Boxcar & rolling acne scars
- Open / enlarged pores
- Fine lines & early ageing
- Dull, congested skin
- Stretch marks (early/red)
- Surgical scars
- Hair regrowth (with growth factors)
- Pre-event skin renewal protocol
Step-by-step, no surprises.
Skin Assessment
Scar typing, depth mapping, contraindications check (active acne, eczema, isotretinoin within 6 months).
Topical Numbing
Strong topical anaesthetic for 30–45 minutes. Microneedling is then comfortable, not painful.
Calibrated Depth Pass
Pen depth is set per zone — 1.5mm on cheeks for scars, 0.5mm on forehead for fine lines.
Topical Cocktails
Growth-factor concentrate, vitamin C or hyaluronic acid driven into the channels — multiplies effect.
First 48 Hours
Skin pink and tight. Mineral sunscreen, no active ingredients, no makeup for 24 hours.
4–6 Sessions, 4 Weeks Apart
Scar remodelling needs cumulative micro-injury. Visible improvement compounds with each session.

We tell you what is achievable and what is not. No upselling, no exaggeration — just a clear written plan.
Long-Term Aftercare
Treatment is the start. Maintenance, photographs and follow-up are part of the package — for life.
Common questions, clear answers.
Will it hurt?
Topical numbing makes it tolerable. Most patients describe it as a mild scratching sensation. Cheekbones and jaw are most sensitive; forehead least.
How is this different from RF microneedling?
Standard microneedling stimulates collagen via mechanical injury alone. RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy to the dermis — much stronger remodelling for deep scars but more downtime. We offer both.
Can I do this if I have active acne?
No — we treat the active acne first. Microneedling on inflamed skin spreads bacteria and worsens scars. Patience here pays off.
How soon can I see results?
Glow appears at 1 week. Scar remodelling visible at 6–8 weeks. Final result at 6 months after the last session, as collagen continues to build.
