How does dermaroller work?
Dermaroller work by penetrating the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate cell renewal. Once the skin has been treated, it will begin to naturally repair itself and new skin cells are created.
How much does dermaroller cost?
The cost of your dermaroller treatment will depend on whether you need a course of treatments or a single treatment. This can be discussed with our surgeon assistants at your initial consultation.
How long do the results of dermaroller last?
The effects of the initial treatment last, on average, between four to six weeks, but the amount of treatments needed and exact timeframe will depend on your skin concerns, age, and how your skin responds to the treatment.
The topical anaesthetic cream will be applied 30 minutes prior to your treatment to take full effect, then the dermarolling will take around 30 minutes to complete.
Topical anaesthetic is used to numb the skin prior to the treatment, but you will still be able to feel the slight prickly feeling of the microneedles across your face. Your skin will feel slightly sensitive following the treatment, but this is completely normal.
Who will perform the treatment?
At Transform, all cosmetic procedures are performed only by qualified Nurse practitioners. We have a carefully selected team of professional practitioners who work to the highest standards of cosmetic treatment and patient care.
How long does the Dermaroller treatment take?
The procedure usually takes around 30-45 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Is Dermaroller treatment suitable for all skin types?
Micro-needling therapy is suitable for all skin types, but cannot be used if acne is present on the skin.
How can a Dermaroller treatment benefit the overall skin?
The micro-needling treatment is a method used for skin tightening; improving the skins texture and reducing stretch marks and visible scars.
Skin needling is minimally invasive, side effects are unlikely and healing is rapid. The instrument used is 100% sterile and single-use to ensure the highest standards of hygiene.
Is any aftercare required?
Immediately after the procedure, the treated skin will appear very red and may feel like sunburn after your treatment. This will settle down after a few hours, but it could take up to 24 hours. You can expect to return to normal daily activities in a couple of days.
Can Dermaroller be combined with other treatments?
Microdermabrasion is always recommended prior to treatment to rid and reduce a build of unwanted dead skin cells before having a Dermaroller procedure.nDermaroller works well in combination with other cosmetic treatments such as Juvederm or Botox anti-wrinkle treatment. Your practitioner can recommend the best combination of treatments for you to achieve the best results.
Can I spread the cost of treatment?
Yes, we offer a choice of two finance options. You can pay a deposit of just £500 and choose either 12 monthly interest-free payments or spreading the cost over two to five years.
