Here's to skin treatments that feel like a spa treatment and deliver incredible results.
Your Skin Goals, Our Skin Needling Treatments
Healthy Ageing
Dermapen 4 uses tiny needles to help your skin repair itself and make more collagen. Collagen is what helps keep your skin firm, smooth and strong.
As we age, our skin makes less collagen. Skin needling helps boost this natural process, improving the look of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and uneven skin.
With regular treatments, your skin can look smoother, firmer and healthier over time.
Best for:
Fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, large pores, uneven skin and signs of ageing.
Lighten Pigmentation
It may help fade dark spots caused by sun damage, ageing and old acne marks, leaving your skin looking brighter and more even.
For the best results, we may pair your treatments with skin care products that help reduce dark spots and prevent new ones from forming.
Not all dark spots are the same. We'll check your skin first to make sure this treatment is right for you.
Best for:
Sun spots, age spots, acne marks and uneven skin tone.
Reduce Acne & Breakout
Strengthen Rosacea Skin
It can help fade red and brown marks left behind by acne, improve uneven skin and support a clearer, healthier look.
Over time, a course of treatments may help your skin look smoother, brighter and more even. For active acne, we'll first check your skin to see if needling is right for you. We may suggest gentle skin peels, Jet Plasma or home skin care to help calm and clear your skin.
Best for:
Mild acne, old acne marks, uneven skin tone and rough skin.
Strengthen Rosacea Skin

Strengthen Rosacea Skin
Rosacea can leave your skin red, dry and easy to upset. For some skin types, Dermapen 4 may help support skin repair and improve how your skin looks and feels over time.
Our first goal is to calm your skin and help it hold moisture. We may use gentle skin care, LED light therapy and home products to help keep your skin healthy.
Skin needling is not right for everyone with rosacea, especially during a flare-up. We'll check your skin first and make a plan that is safe and gentle for you.
Best for:
Suitable clients with calm, well-managed rosacea who want to improve skin texture and overall skin health.
Help Enlarged Pores
Strengthen Rosacea Skin
Help Enlarged Pores
Do your pores look large or easy to see? Dermapen 4 can help your skin look smoother and firmer.
As we age, our skin makes less collagen, which can make pores look bigger. Dermapen 4 uses tiny needles to help your skin make more collagen, making pores look smaller over time.
If your pores are blocked or your skin is oily, we may also suggest gentle skin peels and home skin care to help keep your skin clear.
Best for:
Large pores, oily skin, rough skin and uneven skin texture.

numbing for Dermapen 4 skin needling?
While many clients are comfortable having Dermapen 4 Skin Needling without numbing cream, everyone's pain tolerance is different. If you're concerned about the sensation of treatment or know that you have particularly sensitive skin, it's absolutely okay to choose to use a numbing cream before your appointment.
Due to Queensland regulations, we are unable to supply or apply prescription-strength topical anaesthetic in the clinic. If you would like to use numbing cream, you'll need to obtain a suitable product from your GP or local pharmacist and apply it yourself before arriving for your appointment, following the directions provided by your healthcare professional.
If you plan to arrive with numbing cream applied, please let your therapist know when booking your appointment. This allows us to adjust your treatment protocol, including your skin preparation and cleansing process, to ensure your Dermapen 4 treatment is performed safely and effectively.
If you're unsure whether numbing cream is right for you, our team is always happy to discuss your options during your consultation.

aftercare
Following treatment, your skin may appear pink or slightly flushed, similar to mild sunburn.
For the first 5 days after treatment, we recommend:
- Gentle cleansing only
- Hydrating and barrier-repair products
- Daily SPF 50+
- Avoiding active ingredients
- Avoiding excessive heat, saunas, and vigorous exercise
Around day 3 post skin needling, your skin will go through a dry/flaky phase - this is a good sign! We recommend a gentle enzyme exfoliant for this period and a barrier supporting moisturiser.
After approximately 5 days, and once the skin has comfortably recovered, active ingredients such as Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin B serums can usually be reintroduced gradually.
Your therapist will guide you on the best post-treatment routine for your skin.
