Dermaroller™ Home Genuine Dermaroller™ Press OfficeThe UK’s most popular way to: Smoother, Brighter, Younger, Healthier Looking Skin

Significantly improving the appearance of facial and décolleté lines and wrinkles, sun damaged and ageing skin, acne scars and stretch marks has never been easier thanks to the innovative and award-winning non-surgical skin regeneration procedure Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy.™ (www.genuinedermaroller.co.uk).

Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ offers amazing results without the inconvenient ‘down time’ that comes with more aggressive laser treatments and medium and deep chemical peels. The procedure – as seen on Channel 4’s Ten Years Younger and Embarrassing Bodies – uses tiny micro-medical skin-needles to stimulate the skin, encouraging regeneration and repair, leaving you with smoother, brighter, healthier, younger-looking skin.

Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ is a natural process that has an excellent safety profile when used by trained medical aesthetic practitioners. It stimulates the skin to regenerate and repair itself without adding foreign substances to the body or taking anything away. The Genuine Dermaroller™ device incorporates advanced German medical engineering; manufactured using Dermaroller GmbH, Germany’s Medizinisch Nadel Technik™ to provide a superior and safe treatment that delivers the highest levels of clinical quality and efficacy.

The treatment, available from Genuine Dermaroller™ Approved clinics throughout the UK, 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. Due to its notable safety profile, Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ is suitable for use on darker skins and for use during the summer months – when other treatments are more risky due to increased UV sensitivity.

The Genuine Dermaroller™ triumphed at the Aesthetic Awards 2011-2012 where it won by popular vote the Gold Award for Facial Treatment of the Year and the Consumer Choice Treatment of the Year, a testament to the outstanding results being achieved from the treatment when provided by trained medical aesthetic practitioners and their clinics.

The Appointment:

Forty five minutes prior to treatment, the practitioner will use a topical anaesthetic to numb the skin. Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ uses the Genuine Dermaroller™, a high quality sterile single use CE Marked medical-device, and only available in the UK and Ireland from trained medical practitioners and authorised clinics. The device 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. In the first weeks the skin will normally look brighter and more vibrant and approximately six weeks later the regeneration and repair process will tighten the skin and may also reduce pigmentation. The process will continue over the following months, providing natural and long lasting enhancement. Up to five sessions, six weeks apart, are usually recommended. Treatment cost starts from £250 per session.

Now available across the UK and Ireland from over 1,500 trained medical aesthetic practitioners and Genuine Dermaroller™ Approved Clinics and supported by an expert clinical training team you can find your nearest Genuine Dermaroller™ Approved clinic at www.genuinedermaroller.co.uk.

Dr Sach Mohan, leading Cosmetic Physician, says: “Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ is 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, most of my patients notice this within a week, but it goes on to significantly reduce fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, pigmentation and even stretch marks. The safety profile is so good we can even use it on the delicate eye area and there is so little ‘downtime’ that clients are now coming to us to replace their regular facial with this treatment.”

With recovery often taking place the same day as the procedure is carried out, the patient will just look like they have moderate sunburn following their Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ session. For advanced repair of the skin and to enhance the procedure patients are advised to use the exclusive Endocare Natural Skin Regeneration range, which uses a natural-growth-factor mechanism for clinically-proven skin regeneration and aids the repair of damaged and recovering skin undergoing cosmetic treatment.

After undergoing Genuine Dermaroller™ Therapy™ patients are advised to stay out of the sun for prolonged periods of time to further protect their skin. Of course, an everyday, year-round approach to sun protection is essential. Heliocare, the clinically advanced UV protection range, provides high or very high level UVA and UVB protection in great skin-loving-gel formulations. It is the only sun protection range to contain the unique Fernblock™ Photoimmunoprotection Technology, which is derived from a natural fern and is clinically and scientifically proven to provide skin-specific antioxidant activity and dermal protection.

The Genuine Dermaroller™ home-care epidermal skin rejuvenation system is the perfect addition to a high quality at-home anti-ageing skincare regime. Utilising the specifically designed home-care HC9 device, the home-care epidermal skin rejuvenation treatment is also an ideal complement to a course of Genuine Dermaroller™ treatments and can help to achieve smoother, brighter, younger, healthier looking skin. As well as aiding the penetration of anti-ageing and skin enhancing dermo-cosmetic products it has also been shown to increase epidermal cell proliferation and dermal renewal, and stimulate collagen production. This will help improve the structure of the skin and as a result leave your skin looking smoother, brighter and healthier.
