Skin Needling / Micro-Needling

Skin Needling / Micro-Needling

A Skin Needling Treatment, also known as micro-needling, at LA Lips® includes a personalised skin consultation with a certified cosmetic specialist utilising the Dermapen® Medical-Grade ISO 13485 and CE Marking approved premium MDerma™️ device. At LA Lips®, our pledge is to dedicate resources to the highest-quality products, exclusively tailored treatments, and advanced devices.

The Dermapen® is an automated micro-needling device with a disposable tip cartridge which glides over the skin creating millions of fine, vertical fractional channels up to 104% faster than other micro-needling pens. These channels can carry up to 80% more topical nutrients deeper into the skin. Basically, Skin Needling helps the skin to repair itself after it has encountered cuts, scars, or any other physical damage. When an injury occurs, your skin will destroy the old, damaged tissue that causes acne scarring and wrinkles and will replace it with freshly produced collagen. This treatment is best for all skin types and tones, especially for people who are facing problems like acne scarring, wrinkling, fine lines, and dilated pores. The Dermapen® device harnesses over 100 times the power of typical at-home devices, featuring advanced tip placement with patented 12 tip micro-needling arrangement – creating maximum efficiency tip depth control, patented anti-backflow membrane protection – greatly reducing the risk of cross-contamination by eliminating back-flow, and patented break away – safely rendering the tips un- usable and disposed of after use.

Our personalised Skin Needling Treatment Plans are created, documented and communicated to our patients ensuring proper continuity of care. We target the areas of concern and ensure we are safely and effectively performing treatments in as little as 4 to 8 sessions.

We strongly endorse following our Skin Needling skincare regime to ensure the best treatment outcomes. This involves applying a peptide serum to stimulate collagen production, a moisturising and hydrating gel cream and SPF 50+ sunscreen for added protection before and after treatment. This prepares your skin for the best possible foundation and recovery for Skin Needling Treatment. Post-Treatment, we apply a cosmeceutical hydrating and healing serum to restore and maintain the skin’s barrier function, whilst replenishing compromised skin conditions for a quick recovery from treatment. We highly recommend continuing with the peptide serum at home along with your recommended skincare kit.

Prior to making a decision about any cosmetic procedure, it is recommended to seek guidance from a qualified professional, where they can evaluate your specific needs and offer personalised recommendations.
