We’re delighted to bring the latest, most advanced micro needling treatment to Spa-licious’ clients. Using SkinPen Precision, a breakout next-generation micro needling device from the US, we can penetrate the skin at deeper levels (up to 2.5mm) and at greater density than ever before, delivering immediate and significant improvement of fine lines, wrinkles, skin sagging, uneven skin texture, sun damage and acne scars.
This breakthrough treatment is 100% reliable, FDA-approved and safety tested to highest standards. Treatment is undertaken by our fully-trained aestheticians experienced in all types of micro needling procedures, including our popular Meso Vytal Skin Needling facial.
Unlike manual derma rolling, where a roller covered in tiny needles is manoeuvred across the skin making a series of tiny punctures, the SkinPen’s digital technology enables the device to produce a much higher density of channels – around 98,000 each minute – maximising its revitalising and resurfacing effect. As you can see from our before and after images, improvements are visible after one micro needling treatment.
Fine lines and wrinkles are reduced and will continue to reduce as the body startsgenerating new collagen and elastin. Skin looks tighter and smoother, especially around tell-tale areas such as the jawline and under the chin. The combined use of potent skin serums also prevents further fine lines and wrinkles forming making it the ideal anti-aging treatment.
Acne scars and chicken pox scars are visibly improved, redness is reduced, and skin looks smoother and more even. This will intensify post-treatment as the body accelerates collagen and elastin production.
Sun-damaged skin looks renewed, pores and lines are less visible and skin texture looks refined and brighter.
Uneven skin texture, which can take many forms, is rebalanced, so that dry or rough patches look healthy and hydrated and pigmentation and dark spots are noticeably reduced, restoring an even, glowing complexion.
SkinPen microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a precision-controlled device with tiny sterile needles to stimulate the skin’s natural repair process.
The treatment creates thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin, triggering the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that help maintain skin firmness, elasticity and smoothness.
At Spa-licious in Gerrards Cross, SkinPen microneedling is designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and uneven skin texture, helping to achieve a smoother, healthier-looking complexion.
SkinPen microneedling is particularly popular for improving the appearance of acne scars, including certain types of atrophic scars caused by previous breakouts.
By stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production, the treatment can help improve uneven skin texture and make some acne scars appear less noticeable over time.
SkinPen may also help reduce the appearance of enlarged pores and improve overall skin smoothness.
Results depend on the type and severity of scarring, and multiple treatments may be required. Active acne should be assessed before treatment, as microneedling may not be suitable during an active breakout.
SkinPen microneedling is generally well tolerated, although you may experience some discomfort or a prickling sensation during the procedure. A topical numbing cream may be applied beforehand to help make the treatment more comfortable.
Following treatment, your skin may appear red and feel warm or tight, similar to mild sunburn. Some clients also experience temporary swelling, dryness or mild flaking.
Redness often improves within 24–48 hours, although recovery can take several days depending on your skin sensitivity and treatment intensity.
Your therapist at Spa-licious will provide personalised aftercare advice, including when to resume makeup, active skincare products and exercise.
Exosomes are tiny particles involved in communication between cells. In aesthetic skincare, exosome-based products are being investigated for their potential to support skin repair and improve skin quality.
When combined with SkinPen microneedling, these products are intended to complement the skin’s natural renewal process. However, research into their effectiveness and safety following microneedling is still developing, and results cannot be guaranteed.
The number of SkinPen treatments required depends on your skin concerns, the condition of your skin and the results you’d like to achieve.
For general skin rejuvenation, a course of three treatments, usually spaced four to six weeks apart, is commonly recommended.
For concerns such as acne scarring or more noticeable textural irregularities, additional sessions may be beneficial.
Some clients notice improvements in skin radiance and texture after their first treatment, while more significant changes develop gradually as collagen production increases.
During your consultation at Spa-licious, we’ll recommend a personalised treatment plan based on your individual needs.
Both SkinPen and radiofrequency (RF) microneedling stimulate the skin’s natural collagen production, but they work in slightly different ways.
SkinPen uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, encouraging collagen renewal and helping improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines and uneven texture.
Radiofrequency microneedling combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy, delivering controlled heat into the skin to encourage collagen remodelling. It may be particularly suitable for clients concerned about skin laxity and firmness, alongside texture.
At Spa-licious, we offer both SkinPen and RF microneedling treatments. During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin concerns and recommend the most suitable option.
The cost of SkinPen microneedling at Spa-licious in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, will depend on the area being treated and whether you choose an individual session or a recommended course of treatments.
During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin, discuss your treatment goals and explain the recommended number of sessions and associated costs.
Whether you’re looking to improve acne scarring, reduce the appearance of fine lines or achieve smoother-looking skin, our experienced team can help you explore your options.
The SkinPen Precision provides noticeable, long-lasting results without needing to undergo invasive cosmetic surgery. The treatment works by creating thousands of microscopic punctures in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural repair response to create fresh collagen and elastin, the fibrous proteins which keep skin looking youthful and supple.
The effect of the micro needling process is optimised by applying powerful skin-rejuvenating serums during and post-treatment. Due to the thousands of tiny perforations made in the skin, these are absorbed deep into the basal layers of skin where they have most impact.
The SkinPen’s unique head design and needle position means this treatment is much more comfortable than manual micro needling, making it suitable for treating even sensitive facial regions, such as around the nose, eyes and lips.
Results may vary from person to person.
