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:
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.
