SkinPen Microneedling

What does it do?

SkinPen Microneedling is a clinically backed treatment suitable for both men and women of all skin tones and types. It’s a natural approach to skincare—completely free from injections, heat, or harsh chemicals.

The treatment works by using ultra-fine needles to create tiny micro-channels in the skin. These controlled micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen production and resulting in smoother, firmer, and more refreshed skin.

  • Unlike other methods that rely on synthetic substances or invasive techniques, SkinPen Microneedling encourages your skin to repair and renew itself from within. With little to no downtime, it’s a gentle yet effective option for addressing acne scars, reducing fine lines, and improving overall skin radiance.

    At NÜ Clinic, we focus on treatments that deliver real results while boosting your confidence. Each SkinPen Microneedling session is customised to your individual needs, supporting your journey to healthier, more radiant skin.

who is it for?

Suitable for all skin types and tones, SkinPen Microneedling is ideal for those looking to smooth fine lines, reduce acne scars or restore natural radiance. It’s a gentle, injection-free treatment that stimulates your skin’s own repair process for firmer, healthier-looking results.

WHERE CAN IT BE USED?

Commonly used on the face, neck and décolletage, SkinPen Microneedling can also treat stretch marks or scars on areas such as the abdomen and thighs. Each session is tailored to your individual skin needs for precise, targeted rejuvenation.

TREATMENT + recovery

Ultra-fine needles create tiny micro-channels in the skin, triggering collagen and elastin production for a smoother, more refined complexion. You may notice mild redness for up to 24 hours, but most clients resume normal routines the next day. Results improve over the following weeks as the skin naturally renews itself

frequently asked questions

  • Microneedling boosts skin turnover, improve skin elasticity, firmness and regulates the distribution of skin pigments. So, whether you are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scarring or hyper pigmentation, or simply looking for a refreshed glow and preventing signs of aging, SkinPen Precision can help you achieve your skin goals.

    This treatment is clinically proven to treat the following concerns:

    • Fine lines and wrinkles

    • Acne scarring

    • Ice pick scarring

    • Closed acne lesions

    • Stretch marks

    • Hyperpigmentation

    • Uneven skin tone and texture

    • Large pores

    • Dyschromia: melasma, vitiligo, and sun damage

    • Surgical Scars

  • Immediately after the treatment you will experience tightened and glowing skin. Redness or a slight sunburnt look will be noticed which may last between 30mins-24hrs, this varies depending on skin sensitivity.

    Most of the redness and flaking of any dry skin will be mostly finished by the second day. After the 24 hours you can start applying sunscreen, makeup and continue using the products provided in your post procedure kit to maximise treatment results.

  • After just one treatment you will see visible results, but multiple sessions are advised depending on the targeted skin concern and the client (for example scarring that has been present for a long period of time may take more sessions than when treating a fresh scar).

    Treatments are advised to be done 4 weeks apart, for maintainable and optimal results.

  • You can see immediate improvements in the skin, optimal results can be seen at 3 months post treatment.

    Please note that the natural healing process will continue to enhance the results for up to 365 days following each treatment.

  • We recommend no foundation, make up, or your usual skincare products for 24 hours post treatment whilst the microchannels are open to avoid irritation and achieve the best results (you are provided with a post procedure kit at your appointment & thorough aftercare advice).

    • No AHA’s, BHA’s or Retinol 7 days before and after treatment.

    • No sunbeds or suntanning 14 days before and after treatment.

    • No self-tanner for 7 days before and after treatment.

    • No surgical procedures or other aesthetic treatments (such as Botox & Dermal Fillers) in the treatment area for 14 days before and after treatment.
