Client Stories
helping our clients regain their confidence
"I am a 46-year-old woman who, from the age of 12 to 22, suffered from really bad keloid acne. The resulting scarring left me feeling quite disfigured and led me to research and trial many different products to improve the look of my skin. I even considered (but discounted) invasive medical procedures. Alas, none of the products I tried helped much, as the scarring was simply too deep. In May 2010 I read about skin needling inThe Sunday Times Magazine [STM]. It was described as a medical procedure, using a device called a Dermaroller®, that was designed to increase collagen production in the skin and so reduce scarring, deep lines, etc. I immediately rang Karen Bowen’s clinic to see if they could do anything about my problem.
I’ve now had six needling sessions and I’m amazed at the results. My skin looks and feels youthful and beautiful. Even after the first and second sessions I noticed a huge difference in my complexion, and after the third and fourth sessions my friends began commenting on how wonderful my skin looked and asking what I was using on it. Today, when I walk past a window or mirror and see my reflection I have to look twice to believe that it’s really me.
I would definitely recommend that anyone suffering from acne scarring try skin needling and experience the difference it makes. My skin hasn’t looked this good since I was a child."
“I wanted to take this opportunity, Karen, to thank you for the marvellous results so far from the skin needling treatment I underwent at your clinic; also to commend you on the personalised service I received from both you and your friendly staff.
As you are aware, I recently had a couple of moles removed from my nose by another practitioner using the radio-surgery laser method. Although the moles proved benign, the process left me with both hyper-pigmentation and indented scars on my nose. Desperate to rectify these problems, I searched the Internet for possible solutions. That’s how I came across your website and made further enquiries.
From my first phone call on, I received very attentive service. Skin needling was recommended and the process thoroughly explained by you during our first consultation.
Following my initial treatment the results were just amazing. Very little evidence of the previous surgery remained and my skin felt fantastic. I have just undergone my second needling session and already I can see further improvement.
Being male, I was both anxious and hesitant about receiving this type of treatment, which many might consider more suited to female clients. Now, however, I would highly recommend the treatment to anyone, male or female, who has issues with their skin (particularly scarring), as the results are a huge confidence booster.
Karen, you really delivered on your promise to help, and your after-care service and product suggestions indicate your level of interest in your clients and their maintenance of good skin-care routines. Thanks once again; I really appreciate your fine work.”
"Having dark skin, I already knew that the options for correcting the hyper-pigmentation on my face were limited. During my first consultation with Karen Bowen – Dermal Therapist regarding this problem, skin needling was recommended and the process explained to me thoroughly.
I’ve now had three skin needling treatments on my face and the improvement is very visible. Not only has the hyper-pigmentation gone but my skin seems to glow. So, if you have dark skin and want value for money when seeking help for your skin problems, I highly recommend Karen as she does deliver on her promises. I’m looking forward to having more skin needling in the future. Thanks again to Karen and her team at Karen Bowen – Dermal Therapist. "
