Collagen Channelling for Natural Collagen Induction Therapy

PCI micro-needling is a technique used to stimulate new collagen growth within the skin’s deeper layers.  The result is a smoother, tighter, more evenly pigmented appearance that will benefit a variety of conditions including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Pigmentation marks
  • Dilated blood vessels
  • Stretch marks
  • Acne scarring
  • Post liposuction skin laxity

The program offers a variety of treatment options, all based on the principles of preparing the skin with vitamins A and C before using a small roller studded with either 1mm or 3mm needles to penetrate the skin and induce new collagen production.  We use Environ© products for skin preparation.

The 1mm roller requires a series of treatments – usually 6, performed under a local anaesthetic cream.  A slight 'reddening' of the skin fades within half a day.

The 3mm roller treatment is usually required only once, but a general anaesthetic is appropriate when sensitive areas such as the face are treated. Some swelling and bruising results, which takes a few days to settle.

A discussion with Mr McManamny will help you decide the most appropriate treatment for your skin.
