Microneedling Kent
SkinPen microneedling treatment for smoother, brighter skin and natural collagen renewal.
Microneedling in Kent
Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment designed to support your skin’s natural renewal process. By gently stimulating collagen and elastin production, it helps improve skin quality, texture and firmness over time, leaving your complexion looking fresher, healthier and more radiant. It’s a great option for those wanting to enhance their natural skin without changing the way they look.
What Is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen microneedling is a professional collagen induction treatment using a medical-grade device fitted with sterile, ultra-fine needles. The SkinPen creates thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. This boosts:
- Collagen production
- Elastin production
- Skin renewal
These regenerative processes help improve skin strength, smoothness and radiance over time. SkinPen creates approximately 1,600 micro-channels per second, allowing precise and effective treatment with minimal downtime.
Unlike some resurfacing treatments, microneedling is suitable for a wide range of skin tones with low risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation when professionally performed.
Benefits of Microneedling Treatment
Microneedling offers more than just a refreshed appearance. By supporting your skin’s natural healing process, it can help improve a variety of skin concerns while enhancing overall skin quality, texture and radiance over time.

What To Expect During a Microneedling Treatment
Every client at Immaculate Touch begins with an initial consultation, allowing us to assess your skin and discuss your concerns, treatment goals and suitability. We take time to understand your needs, so your treatment plan is fully tailored to you.
During the consultation, we also review your medical history to ensure treatment is safe and appropriate. Once your personalised plan is confirmed, we schedule your treatment. On the day:
- Skin is thoroughly cleansed
- Topical numbing cream may be applied if suitable
- SkinPen settings are adjusted to your needs
- Controlled passes are performed across the treatment area
Most clients describe the feeling as light scratching or tingling rather than pain. After treatment, skin may appear red, similar to mild sun exposure, and usually settles within a few days.
