The gold standard in microneedling – clinically proven to rejuvenate skin from within
SkinPen® Precision is a medical-grade microneedling device used to stimulate your skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. By creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, SkinPen® activates the body’s healing process – improving texture, tone, and overall skin quality over time.
Unlike cosmetic rollers or salon devices, SkinPen® is both FDA-cleared (U.S.) and CE-marked (Europe), making it one of the only microneedling systems globally recognised for safety and effectiveness. It’s clinically proven to reduce acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and uneven texture, with results that continue to improve over several months.
At Smooth Dimensions, SkinPen® treatments are carried out by our highly experienced and medically trained nurse, Fiona, using sterile, single-use cartridges. This ensures clinical precision, reduced risk, and superior outcomes, especially for complex concerns like scarring or skin ageing. Fiona will be able to create a treatment plan specifically for your skin's needs upon consultation.

Treatment FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Does SkinPen® microneedling hurt?
A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to ensure comfort. Most clients describe the sensation as mild or tolerable.
How many treatments will I need?
A course of 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart is recommended for best results. Maintenance treatments can be done every 6–12 months.
How soon will I see results and how long do they last?
Some clients notice a healthy glow within a few days. Collagen regeneration and visible skin improvements typically develop over 2 – 6 weeks, with optimal results after a course of treatments. Results can last several months, especially when maintained with regular skincare and sun protection. Collagen continues to build for up to 3 – 6 months post-treatment.
Is SkinPen® safe for all skin types?
SkinPen® is clinically proven to be safe and effective for many skin types, including darker skin tones.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal. You may experience redness, mild swelling, and skin sensitivity for 24–48 hours post-treatment – similar to a light sunburn. Most clients return to normal activities within a day or two.
What aftercare is required?
You’ll be given specific aftercare instructions, but generally:
- Avoid sun exposure, heat, and exercise for 24 – 48 hours
- Use gentle, hydrating skincare
- Avoid active ingredients (retinol, acids) for several days
- Avoid applying makeup for at least 24 hours, to reduce the risk of irritation or infection.
What concerns can SkinPen® help with?
SkinPen® is ideal for treating:
- Acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Dull or ageing skin
- Skin laxity (mild)
