The Power of SkinPen Treatment
The only FDA-approved microneedling device in the UK. Transform your skin What makes SkinPen treatment so special is its ability to harness your skin’s natural healing process. By creating thousands of micro-channels in the skin, SkinPen microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production – two essential proteins that keep your skin firm, smooth and glowing.
From enlarged pores and stretch marks to melasma and surgical scars, SkinPen targets a wide range of concerns with precision and care. And because it doesn’t rely on heat or chemicals, it’s gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin. At LHP, we combine clinical expertise with a luxury experience to ensure every microneedling facial leaves you feeling refreshed, radiant and ready to face the world.
What is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen microneedling is a clinically proven treatment that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering a natural healing response. This process stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping to reduce acne scars, fine lines and uneven skin tone.
Does Microneedling Hurt?
Most clients describe microneedling as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. A numbing cream is applied beforehand, and the SkinPen device is designed for precision and comfort. You may feel a sensation similar to light sunburn afterwards, which typically fades within 24–48 hours.
Does Microneedling Work?
Yes – microneedling is backed by clinical studies and trusted by dermatologists worldwide. In fact, 90% of patients in a recent study said they would recommend SkinPen treatment. Results include smoother texture, reduced scarring and a more youthful glow.
What It Is and How It Works
SkinPen Precision uses a 15-needle surgical steel head to create micro-channels in the skin at a rate of 1600 per second. These tiny injuries trigger a three-phase healing process:
- Phase 1: Inflammation – The skin responds by disinfecting, removing debris and increasing blood flow.
- Phase 2: Proliferation – New granulation cells form, including collagen and elastin proteins, along with a new network of blood vessels.
- Phase 3: Remodelling – The skin rebuilds itself with fresh, healthy tissue, visibly improving texture and tone.
This natural regeneration process helps reduce acne scars, neck wrinkles, melasma and more – without the need for heat or chemicals.
What to Expect During Your SkinPen Treatment
Before your SkinPen microneedling session, Laura will cleanse your skin and apply a numbing cream. The device is then gently passed over the treatment area, with a special glide gel to enhance comfort and effectiveness.
Depending on your skin’s needs, 2–3 passes are made to achieve the desired clinical endpoint – typically mild redness and pinpoint bleeding. For deeper scars, the device may be used at a greater depth to break down scar tissue. A soothing cooling masque is applied afterwards to calm the skin.
