Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy uses tiny micro-medical needles on the skin encouraging regeneration and repair, leaving you with smoother, brighter, healthier, younger-looking skin. Dermaroller™ Therapy offers amazing results without the inconvenient ‘down time’ that comes with more aggressive Laser treatments and medium and deep Chemical Peels. And because it stimulates the skin to regenerate and repair itself without adding foreign substances to the body or taking anything away, Dermaroller™ Therapy is a natural process which has an excellent safety profile when used by trained medical aesthetic practitioners. The treatment is fantastic for the repair of acne scars, for the regeneration of the face, neck, décolleté and the back of the hands and for the treatment of stretch marks on thighs and tummies. Thirty minutes prior to treatment, Dr Jilani will use a topical anaesthetic to numb the skin. Dermaroller penetrates the skin with thousands of microscopic needle-columns, which encourages the skin’s natural repair process. As the skin regenerates, new collagen and skin cells are formed and blood supply is enhanced. Dr G Jilani, leading cosmetic physician, says: “Dermaroller therapy is fast becoming one of the UK’s leading non-surgical skin regeneration treatments due to its efficacy and safety. It not only improves the texture and quality of the skin, but it goes on to significantly reduce fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, pigmentation and gives great results with stretch marks. The safety profile is so good we can even use it on the delicate eye area and there is so little ‘downtime’.”
