Microneedling Electroporation can help to improve a variety of different concerns such as open pores, scars, wrinkles, skin laxity and uneven skin texture.

How does Microneedling and Electroporation work?

Ultra-fine needles penetrate the skin at different depths, creating micro-channels which stimulate a wound-healing response. This leads to the production of new collagen and elastin. Once the micro-channels have been created, the Electroporation technology releases electro-stimulating pulses to increase the permeability of the skin cell membrane.

This allows for increased absorption of serums applied to the skin, for hydrated, healthy skin. Microneedling combined with Electroporation significantly increases the amount of serum delivered to the skin compared with traditional microneedling treatments.

Microneedling for hair regrowth and skin laxity

Skin Laxity

Improvements in skin laxity are achieved through increasing collagen and elastin production, for smoother, tighter and more lifted skin. Ultra-fine needles penetrate the skin at different depths and release electro-stimulating pulses, triggering a wound-healing response which leads to the production of collagen and elastin.

Results can be seen after one session, but a minimum of 3 and up to 6 treatments, at 4-week intervals, deliver the best results depending on the skin concern. Most patients see an improvement 2 to 3 weeks after the first treatment.

Results are natural but significant and get better over time, peaking at 12 weeks following the final treatment.

Scarring and Stretch Mark Removal

Scarring and stretch marks are very common concerns. The process of microneedling and Electroporation helps the body produce new collagen and elastin, which will minimise fine lines, smooth out uneven textures and reduce any discolouration for acne scars, surgical scars, traumatic scars and stretch marks. The electroporation technology, when used alongside advanced serums, will rehydrate the area of concern.

Ultra-fine needles penetrate the skin at different depths and release electro-stimulating pulses in a controlled manner, triggering a wound-healing response which leads to the production of collagen and elastin. The wounds cause trauma in the skin and encourage the body to create more collagen and elastin to heal facial or body scars. Results can be seen after one session, but a minimum of 3 and up to 8 treatments, at 4-week intervals, deliver the best results depending on the skin concern. Most patients see an improvement 2 to 3 weeks after the first treatment. Results are natural but significant and get better over time. Your results will peak at 12 weeks following the final course of treatment.

Microneedling for Hair Regrowth

Microneedling and Electroporation utilises a HD Celluma Serum to infuse the scalp with growth factors, skin proteins and vitamins designed to nourish and stimulate hair follicles. This treatment will lead to fuller, healthier-looking hair. At the beginning of the treatment, the HD Celluma Serum is applied to the scalp. EPN employs tiny, medical-grade needles to create micro-channels that pierce the scalp, pushing nourishing hair proteins directly into the hair follicles. This helps to produce more collagen and new skin cells to strengthen the hair follicles.

You will see an improved appearance in the thickness and fullness of your hair A minimum of 6 and up to 16 treatments, at weekly intervals, deliver the best results. Most patients see an improvement 4 weeks after the first treatment. Results are natural but get better over time. Your results will peak at 12 weeks following the final course of treatment.

Our Step By Step Guide To Treatments

Step 1:
Consultation

An initial consultation is an integral part of our treatments at Harley Skin & Laser Clinic. You will have the opportunity to discuss any skin concerns and go through your medical history with one of our experienced aestheticians, helping us to identify the most suitable treatment for your skin.

We’ll explain each stage of your treatment in detail so you know what our microneedling treatment entails. Feel free to ask questions and we will answer them openly and honestly.

Step 2:
During Your Treatment

The treatment will begin with your face being cleansed and prepped. The practitioner will then work their way around the treatment area gliding the EPN Pen over the skin to puncture the outermost layers and create miniscule sub-cutaneous injuries. These microscopic wounds stimulate new collagen deposition which may last for up to a year, yet they close within less than an hour.

Step 3:
After The Treatment

After the procedure, your skin will be red and flushed in appearance in a similar way as a moderate sunburn. You will also experience skin tightness and mild sensitivity to touch. This will fade greatly after a few hours following the treatments and within the next 48 hours your skin will be completely healed. After 2 days there is virtually no evidence that the procedure has taken place. The length of downtime and recovery time depends on the micro-needle size used for treatment. You will be informed about your predicted post-treatment appearance during consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, younger skin that doesn’t require lifting and tightening can benefit from Microneedling and Electroporation. Treatments can focus on specific concerns, such as enlarged pores or uneven skin texture, to improve the overall skin quality. Patients with laxity concerns can benefit from the dual effects of Microneedling and Electroporation. As the EPN Pen offers many different needle depths and intensity settings for Electroporation, treatments can be easily customised to every individual and the level of their concern.
During the treatment, there is generally minimal discomfort. Topical anaesthetic is available for clients with sensitive skin should they wish to apply it prior to the treatment.
There is virtually no downtime. A slight swelling and redness are present immediately post-treatment but should subside quickly.
EPN is the abbreviation for Electro Poration Needle. Electroporation is a technique in which an electrical field is applied to the skin’s cells in order to increase the permeability of the membranes, allowing topical products to be introduced into the cell more efficiently. Its application to the skin has been shown to significantly increase transdermal product delivery. Electroporation can be used alone or in combination with skin microneedling which enhances the range of products that can be delivered trans-dermally.
