Hopi Ear Candles
Also known as Thermo Auricular Therapy, Hopi Ear Candling is a wonderfully relaxing and beneficial treatment. It can help with many conditions and problems associated with the ear, nose and throat area. The candles work similarly to chimneys, the candle is lit and placed in the ear and the impurities are drawn to the surface by the airflow circulating in, around and out of the top of the candle. A mild suction occurs and the heat of the released, circulating vapours, inside the ear, gently massages the eardrum. This action helps to regulate the pressure systems within the head including the sinuses, which may be infected.

The epidermis and dermis heals rapidly, usually in a matter of hours and the skin should be completely back to normal within 24 to 48 hours. Furthermore… SkinPen is Laboratory Tested and Validated to prevent the risk of cross contamination CE Mark medical grade registration provides practices in Europe with a safe, reliable and effective device compliant and certified to ISO & BSI standard FDA CLEARED Micro-needling Pen

How Many Treatments Will I Need?Your provider, based on your individual treatment goals and the current condition of your skin, will determine the number of treatments required. However, for best results, most Micro-needling patients receive a series of 3-6 treatments, spaced about four to six weeks apart. A booster course of 3 is recommended annually to maintain optimal results.
-
What Must I Avoid Prior To The Skinpen Treatment?Any active skincare products such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid and retinol or any topical form of vitamin A should not be used a week before treatment. The skin barrier should not be compromised on the day of the treatment e.g. no dryness/peeling, open breakouts that are healing. This can cause the skin to be sensitive and may cause other skin problems such as post-inflammatory pigmentation. Also, any facial or laser treatments should be avoided 2-4 weeks prior to Skinpen treatment, please speak with your practitioner for further advice.
-
What Does The Procedure Involve?During the procedure, small pricks are made under the skin with a pen-like tool. The pinpricks are so small that you likely won’t notice them after the procedure. The pen is moved evenly across your skin so that the new skin that rejuvenates will be even, too. You might think that having a bunch of tiny needles stamped into your skin would be painful, but surprisingly it is not. 20 minutes before treatment you’ll have a topical anaesthetic applied which will eliminate any discomfort during the process. The treatment may last 30 -60 minutes, depending on the area that is to be treated.
-
WHat Does The Treatment Feel Like?It feels similar to light sandpaper being moved across the skin or some say it’s like an electric toothbrush on the skin. Some areas are more sensitive than others, but the speed of the tip along with the applied serum reduces discomfort. Nu-Yu Skin Clinic uses a topical anaesthetic to make the treatment very tolerable.

-
What Skincare Products Should I Use Alongside Skinpen?Before your treatment, we recommend you use basic skincare products that do not contain AHAs/BHAs and vitamin A. After your SkinPen treatment, you will be provided with two -home-care products to use for the following 48 to 72 hours. Within this time frame, we advise avoiding using any other products, including a cleanser and SPF. You will then be able to resume your normal routine including active ingredients etc, once your skin has fully healed with no redness or peeling of the skin.
-
What After Care Is Required?Directly following the procedure, you will be advised to: Keep the area clean. Use only tepid water for the first 72 hours. Dry the skin in a gentle manner and with a clean towel Nothing to be applied to the skin for 24 hours, as there may be an increased risk of infection, except for *Skinfuse Lift HG and Skinfuse Rescue Calming Complex Protect the skin from UV damage. Avoid sun exposure and sun beds for 2-4 weeks after treatment A minimum of SPF30 to be worn after 24 hours The skin will feel dry, use a gentle unscented moisturiser to keep the skin hydrated Make up should be avoided for 24 hours, unless it is mineral based make up Strenuous exercise should be avoided for 24 hours Avoid any products (prescription or non-prescription) that contain active ingredients
-
What Are The Potential Post Treatment Effects On The Skin?Blood may be visible on the skin post treatment and should be wiped away with sterile gauze and water initially Bruising (this may last up to 1 week) Erythema and flushing (redness of the skin) (this may last up to 1 week) Swelling (this may last up to 1 week) Skin tightness and dryness Hyperpigmentation Infection
-
How Soon Do You See Results From Micro-Needling?Results will last depending on the skin concern and the home maintenance. Typically results last longer once you have completed a course and generally last up to 12-18 months. However, if you are targeting ageing, we recommend having a maintenance session once every 6 months to prevent the collagen production from slowing down again. You can upgrade your treatment by adding on LED Phototherapy as it not only helps to calm and heal the skin but provides additional anti-ageing results.
-
At What Age Should You Start Micro-Needling?There is no hard and fast rule regarding the best time to start micro needling. Young patients with acne scars may benefit from this treatment just as much as patients who have noticed signs of ageing like fine lines and age spots. Essentially, SkinPen Micro-needling is a suitable treatment option for any patient with concerns about their skin’s appearance or texture.
-
Can I Have Facials, Laser, Botox Or Dermal Fillers After Skinpen?We advise you to wait 4 weeks for any facial or laser treatment, please speak with your practitioner who will advise you further. We recommend 2 weeks after SkinPen treatment for any injectable procedures such as botox or filler.
-
What’s The Difference Between Skinpen And Doing Micro Needling At Home?SkinPen is a medical device that is also used in the NHS by doctors etc. There is a difference in strength due to the way SkinPen technology works in the skin and the downtime is much greater than a home use micro-needling and will always need guidance when the skin is healing. Whereas home micro-needling, if used correctly your skin may appear slightly pink but doesn’t last long. Therefore the SkinPen procedure is more effective and the results last longer
-
I Didn’t Peel Much After My Skinpen Treatment, Will It Still Work?Yes, how much peeling or dryness will occur depends on the depth we treat and generally varies from person to person. However, minimal or excessive peeling is both normal and the treatment will still be as effective.
-
My Redness Only Lasted One Day, Does This Mean The Skinpen Treatment Is Not As Effective?Redness from SkinPen can last from 24 hours to 1 week and sometimes longer. This also depends on the depth of the treatment and varies from person to person. We always advise to allow 1 to 2 weeks for downtime with redness and/or peeling of the skin.
