SkinPen Precision launches in the UK

The SkinPen Precision device for microneedling has been introduced to the UK by BioActiveAesthetics. Manufactured by US company Bellus Medical, the device aims to enhance the safety of microneedling for collagen induction therapy by incorporating a single-use lock out feature to remove any possibility of cross contamination. According to BioActiveAesthetics, the device ensures a precise depth setting from 0.25-2.5mm and completes 7,000rpm. There are 14 precision sterile needles that can produce 98,000 microchannels per minute, which the company claims is four times faster than any other device. The SkinPen also features a wireless charger that allows for an enhanced ease of use and incorporates a battery level monitor. Typically, patients will need between three to six treatments, each taking around 20 minutes for optimal results
