SkinPen Microneedling is suitable for all skin types and tones and can address a wide range of skin concerns, including:
The microneedles create micro-channels in the skin, which are like tiny furrows. The body responds to these micro-channels by increasing the collagen produced in order to heal the treatment area. During this response, the body goes through three phases of repair and healing:
Micro-needles create tiny channels in the skin, prompting the body to heal in three phases:
Unlike rollers, SkinPen’s needles insert vertically with adjustable depth — reducing trauma and allowing precise, even treatment.
The result is skin that is progressively firmer, smoother, and more radiant — with improvements continuing to develop for months after treatment as new collagen matures.
Every treatment at Eye and Face Clinic starts with a professional-grade topical anaesthetic, formulated to make procedures virtually pain-free. It is applied and fully removed before the SkinPen device is used, for maximum comfort.
Once numb, Gillian passes the device over the treatment area — most patients feel only light pressure and a mild buzzing sensation.
Treatment itself takes 25–30 minutes; with prep and numbing, expect a 45-minute appointment.
A key aspect of microneedling is getting the treatment done in a series. While one session can help improve collagen stimulation, a series of 3 to 6 sessions can truly revolutionise your skin. These are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Overall skin health and appearance can continue to show improvement up to 6 months after your final session.
Gillian will advise on the optimal number of treatments during your consultation, based on your individual skin concerns and goals. Many patients choose to continue with maintenance treatments once or twice a year to sustain and build on their results over time.

No rush, no pressure – just honest medical advice.
After your microneedling session, you can expect to feel some warmth and tightness in your skin, and see mild redness — similar to a minor sunburn — and visible pinkness for 24 to 48 hours. Most patients feel comfortable returning to their normal activities the following day. Gillian will provide you with full aftercare guidance at your appointment.
