The treatment

How SkinPen Microneedling works

SkinPen creates precise, controlled micro-channels across the skin's surface. These micro-injuries kick-start a natural repair response that stimulates new collagen production over the following weeks. At The London Road Clinic it is used for concerns including acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven texture and early fine lines, and is frequently combined with targeted serums or exosomes to maximise results.
