HOW IT WORKS
Double Cleansing |
After a welcome head massage, the treatment starts with a double cleanse to free the skin of the day’s build up. |
Numbing |
Depending on the length of the microneedle used (0.25mm to 2.0mm), your skin may be numbed with a topical anaesthetic. |
Derma rolling |
This step is carried out by highly trained professionals in a controlled, hygienic manner. Each Derma Roller used is brand new and sterile, and immediately disposed after treatment. |
Topical Actives |
SkinLab offers a wide range of nutrient-dense topicals such as stem cells, vitamin C, etc., that penetrate easily via the microchannels created by the derma roller. |
FAQS
How long is the treatment?
SkinLab's Derma Roller Facial lasts 90mins.
Is there any downtime? Are there any side effects?

Follow proper homecare advice customised by our therapists. As a general rule of thumb, we always recommend adequate sun protection.
What is the difference between a home-based derma roller and SkinLab's Derma Roller Facial?
Derma roller home kits can only product up to a degree of light exfoliation of dead skin. This mild microdermabrasion is simply not at the same level of dermarolling and penetration when done by professionals like us.
And while you can learn the techniques of dermarolling online, it’s difficult to gauge the actual touch, feel, and appropriate amount of pressure to apply with the derma roller and at which areas for your safety and the best results.
Plus, at SkinLab The Medical Spa, only brand new sterile derma rollers are used for each Derma Roller Facial session. These used derma rollers are disposed off after each treatment.
This is done for hygiene reasons; to prevent cross contamination between customers, and hence reducing the risk of infection, especially with the open wounds created by dermarolling.
