Reduce or remove acne scars for good with Dermaroller

Acne scarring can be an unsightly reminder of having to deal with that condition.  It’s hard not to feel self-conscious if you’ve been left with visible scars – but that can change with a little help!

Dermaroller is the latest celebrity ‘secret weapon’ to treat acne scars and leave your skin bright, clear and bursting with youthful radiance.  This treatment uses micro-medical skin-needling to roll away the imperfections and stimulate your own collagen to regenerate and repair your skin naturally.

It’s not a celebrity secret any longer – you can get the same fantastic skin with Dermaroller treatment at Riverbanks Clinic.

This banishes:

•    Acne scars
•    Pigmentation from sun damage and age spots
•    Wrinkles on face, neck and decollete
•    Stretch marks

Compared with other similar treatments you’ll experience only slight redness on the first day and then your skin is back to normal, so there’s no need to take time out for recovery; downtime is at a minimum. Ideally, the treatment is over three thirty minute sessions, but your initial consultation will establish exactly what your particular skin condition requires.

Imagine what it will be like to remove those little imperfections and to smooth away the signs of an aging skin, those little wrinkles and the ‘papery’ look on your neck and décolletage.  Radiant, resilient skin will shed the years and your friends and family will only notice that you’re looking really fabulous!

There’s nothing like the feeling of nuzzling up to your baby – soft skin, sweet smell, and those little gurgly sounds that only a newborn can make. It’s the best thing about having a baby, don’t you think?

But where there’s a best, there’s a worst- thin hair, hormonal changes bringing spots, and the dreaded stretch marks!

Some women are really lucky – they get through pregnancy and birth and their skin just pings back into shape. The majority, however, will be left with stretch marks, and they can be confidence destroying.

But you can get rid of them – with Dermaroller Microneedling from Riverbanks Clinic!

Banu before treatment

I had always heard about Dermaroller treatment but never actually tried it before.

I knew how it is done and how it works and always knew that it would be really good for me as I suffer from acne scarring. I am really a chicken with needles as I do have a needle phobia. Me and needles don’t really go along well. When we launched Dermaroller Microneedling at Riverbanks I decided to try it. It took me couple of days to put courage into it as it looks and sounds terrifying, a roller with needles! Aughhh!

I was really nervous before the treatment I must admit, terrified!. Ann ( our nurse) applied anaesthetics cream to start with, and I waited about 45 minutes with the cream and she was topping it up every 15 min. It normally is 30 min but being a chicken I waited 45 min to make sure I numbed up well. She cleaned the cream off my face to start the treatment. Until then I didn’t realise how numb my face had gone as I keep telling her that the cream doesn’t work.

She started with my forehead. As soon as I felt how it feels I was relieved. Surprisingly it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Also I think you do get used to it as well. The forehead and the sides were the most uncomfortable areas to my experience due to the areas being bony. While she was doing the passes on my forehead my eyes went really watery. I wasn’t crying but it seemed like I was as tears rolled down my cheeks. Ann did mention before the treatment that this may happen. When she moved down to my cheeks I really didn’t feel anything, they were easy. At that moment I was chatting away all relaxed. When she said she is going to do the dermaroller right underneath my eyes and on my eyelids so I should keep my eyes closed I was back to the nervous mode. Believe it or not I didn’t feel a thing! She was moving gently on and around my eyes and it felt fairly comfortable.

The other area I thought may be uncomfortable was the upper lip, but I didn’t feel a thing on the actual upper lip, although it was a bit uncomfortable for a few seconds when the needles caught the edge of the nose as it is rolled.

She finished off with my chin which was piece of cake.

After the treatment I realised that it wasn’t as bad as I thought. Actually really tolerable. I would say to my experience the forehead was the most uncomfortable then the rest was really nothing. Once it was over I remember saying, “as a chicken if I can have it done anybody and everybody can have it”. As I said before, it seems and sounds scary as a concept but really it is nothing. I was very impressed with it and never thought I would say this but I may even have overcome my needle phobia, may be nice to take some credit for myself.

Ann explained to me that after the treatment my face will be slightly red and feel tight and hot due to the needle stimulation and the heat from skin reacting to the needles. I was red like a tomato for the rest of the day and my skin felt hot for the next couple of hours and calmed down nicely. I could feel my skin really tight. Towards the end of the day the redness massively calmed down as well only left me with rosy cheeks. I can actually see an immediate radiant result so I enjoyed it over a nice dinner same evening.

Banu on Day 5

The next morning all the redness and the rosy cheeks had vanished and nobody would think I had anything done. My skin still felt tight and really smooth. The following day I couldn’t believe when I looked at the mirror 6 am in the morning how healthy my skin looked keep in mind I was still half asleep. I was really impressed and loved my face. When I came to the clinic that day everyone including our clients did mention my skin looks really nice and rejuvenated. It felt really smooth when you touch it as well.

I also realised that the milia I used to have underneath my eyes has dramatically improved as well as the dark circles. I am really impressed with the results. And also I only had my first one there are two more treatments to go to complete my course.

I absolutely loved the treatment, can’t believe I am actually saying this but I can’t wait for my second treatment which will be 6 weeks apart from the first one.

I am actually looking forward to be needled!

I would recommend Dermaroller Microneedling from Riverbanks Clinic to anyone with acne scarring or blemishes as it really does work!

We all dream of having beautiful, glowing, wrinkle free skin. Both men and women spend a lot of time looking after their skin and following strict beauty regimes, but sometimes even that is not enough to get the effect we are really looking for.

Our fresh-faced celebrity idols always have the most radiant skin and effortless glow – and now you can too! Dermaroller Microneedling will reduce spots, redness and brown spots (marks) as well banishing scars, stretch marks and other marks.

Sound too good to be true? Well it’s not! And even better, it is incredibly simple and actually it’s your body that does most of the work!

The Dermaroller, rather than covering or stripping skin cells from the surface, makes tiny (less than 0.1mm width) columns in the skin and encourages your body to repair itself from deep below the surface. New collagen is formed, new skin cells develop and rejuvenated blood capillaries carry fresh new oxygen and life into your skin. This fresh skin looks healthier, fuller and refreshed. Obviously this takes a little while to happen but you should start to see positive results within around 6 weeks of your first procedure, with final results at about 6 months.

And the best part is…there is no need for extensive recovery time as your skin will be back to normal in only a day. In fact, immediately after treatment you will have what looks like mild sunburn that fades within only a few hours. After that you will only see a slight redness that will most likely disappear completely within 24 hours. As the days and weeks pass your skin will look healthier and more radiant.

At Riverbanks we are really excited to be able to offer Genuine Dermaroller Therapy. Only certified clinics and practitioners can carry the Dermaroller brand and administer treatments. You can now find us listed on www.genuinedermaroller.co.uk where you can read much more about the treatment and read personal experiences and testimonials.

I think that many men and women will feel the benefits of such a simple and natural way to getting the skin that they want. Whether it is getting rid of old acne scars, relieving yourself of pesky marks or just revitalizing your skin, Dermaroller Microneedling offers you a quick and long lasting treatment.

Averagely we would recommend 3 treatments in six-week intervals, but obviously we consult with you personally to tailor treatments to suit your needs or results. Using a VISIA Skin Complexion Analysis we can customize your treatment and show you exactly how your treatments are progressing. Even the smallest changes can be picked up so you can see what a real difference it is making to your skin.

So what do I do now?

All you need to do is to make an appointment with Dr Jain and you’ll be on the way to a smoother, brighter and clearer skin.
