Micro-needling is the use of very small needles to repeatedly penetrate the layers of the skin in order to induce a wound healing response.

Dr Barry uses a medical grade mechanical micro-needling device, that organically stimulates the skin’s natural ability to repair and restore itself.

It feels like there is such an emphasis on your clothes wardrobe, but what about your skincare wardrobe. Which products are essential “basics” you should not do without? Which do you wear on different skin days? And which are the equivalent of fast fashion cheap, disposable and not living up to expectations?
