SkinPen Micro Needling Clinic Newry
Includes LED light treatment.
At Clio Skin & Body we perform micro needling using the Skinpen device to ensure a safer & more effective way of penetrating the skin.
Skinpen is unmatched by any other micro needling device on the market, delivering 3 million micro channels per treatment. This highly effective treatment can not only reduce signs of aging but enhance your skin’s overall appearance, too through stimulating the production of collagen & elastin
What can skin needling treat?
Microneedling stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin in the skin by puncturing the dermis with micro needles. The treatment utilises the skins ability to heal itself, in turn triggering the production of new collagen and elastin. The pen sized wand allows for efficient treatment of the entire face, neck or decolletage area. It can also be used elsewhere on the body for example on surgical scars or on areas such as the hands for pigmentation.
In addition to treating pores, fine lines & wrinkles, loss of elasticity, scarring and pigmentation it also enables topical products to penetrate deeper into the skin, increasing their effectiveness. Here we can add on to the treatment on the same day topicals such as BioRepeel, NCTF HA or Exosomes.
Treatment procedure
A consultation will be the first step in the treatment, some questions regarding yourself and the treatment are asked and discussed. This consultation will determine and assess the best-suited treatment for each individual.
Our Skin Therapists will assess whether Micro Needling will suit your specific skin problems including acne scar reduction and anti-ageing skin rejuvenation. Micro Needling is extremely safe and effective in treating fine lines, wrinkles, texture, scars and acne scars with each individual treatment usually taking around an hour.
How many treatments will I need?
Every person’s skin is unique so the number of treatments you may need will vary depending on what condition(s) you want treated with micro needling. The following are some general guidelines only.
3-6 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart
How long should it take before I see results?
Typically, you will see results after the first treatment. Lasting and more significant results will occur after 4 to 6 treatments (spaced 4-6 weeks apart).
Your skin will continue to improve over the next 6-12 months after a course of treatments and when combined with the recommended post treatment care.
Is the treatment painful?
For minimum needle depths skin needling treatments are painless. Treatments over 0.5mm deep are a bit more intense but manageable.
Is there any downtime after treatments?
Generally, no, but you may experience facial redness for 12-48 hours after the treatment. Most people can return to normal daily activities immediately after the treatment. Some clients may experience mild shedding of skin/flakiness 1-3 days post treatment.
Exosomes + Micro Needling
Do exosomes hold the key to the fountain of youth? They are the rising stars of regenerative medicine. The PTT6 exosomes used in Clio Skin use cord lining stem cells of the highest quality. Stem cells play a pivotal role in helping to rejuvenate and regenerate damaged cells in order to maintain healthy skin and health function. They achieve this by releasing messaging signals in the form of Growth Factors, Cytokines, Peptides & Exosomes. Stem cell numbers decrease as we age, as does their ability to communicate with other cells. Our Exosome treatment of PTT-6® provides an alternative source of stem cell messaging. This boosts collagen, elastin and other skin structures, thus giving us more youthful, radiant skin & helps skin heal faster
