SkinPen® Microneedling Townsville

---

SkinPen® is the world's first FDA-cleared microneedling device and is recognised for its precision, safety and consistent clinical performance.

Unlike many generic microneedling devices, SkinPen is engineered to create controlled microchannels within the skin, stimulating the body's natural repair process without the use of heat or harsh chemicals.

This collagen induction process helps strengthen the skin over time, resulting in healthier skin structure and long-lasting improvement.

SkinPen microneedling may be suitable for improving the appearance of:

• Fine lines and wrinkles 
• Acne scars 
• Surgical scars 
• Enlarged pores 
• Uneven skin texture 
• Dull or tired-looking skin 
• Mild skin laxity 
• Sun-damaged skin 
• Pigmentation (as part of a personalised treatment plan) 
• Overall skin rejuvenation

While many patients notice improvements after their first treatment, collagen remodelling is a gradual process.

For optimal results, we commonly recommend:

• 3–6 treatments 
• Approximately 4 weeks apart 

Your treatment plan will be personalised during your consultation based on your skin concerns and desired outcomes.

A topical numbing cream can be applied before treatment to improve comfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild, scratching and warm feeling. With certain areas being more sensitive than others. 

Most people experience redness similar to a mild sunburn for 24–48 hours. Some may also notice mild swelling, dryness or flaking as the skin heals. 

Many patients notice brighter, smoother skin within the first few weeks. Collagen production continues over several months, meaning results continue to improve after each treatment. 

Yes. Depending on your skin concerns, SkinPen may be incorporated into a personalised skin treatment plan alongside complementary skin therapies. 

A popular add on is NCTF®, a revitalising skin complex containing hyaluronic acid combined with a blend of vitamins, amino acids, coenzymes, antioxidants and minerals. Applied during your SkinPen treatment, the microchannels created by the device allow these ingredients to penetrate the skin more effectively, helping to support hydration and overall skin quality.

Adding NCTF® may help to:

• Boost skin hydration and radiance 
• Support the skin's natural repair process 
• Improve overall skin texture and luminosity 
• Complement collagen stimulation from microneedling 
• Enhance your post-treatment glow

Your clinician will provide personalised pre-treatment instructions. In general, avoid excessive sun exposure, active skincare ingredients such as retinoids, and certain treatments immediately 48hrs before your appointment. 

Following your SkinPen treatment, we recommend:

• Avoid excessive sun exposure. 
• Wear a broad-spectrum SPF daily. 
• Avoid active skincare ingredients until advised. 
• Keep the skin hydrated. 
• Follow your personalised aftercare instructions provided by your clinician, including aftercare products.
