What is DermaPen Treatment?

DermaPen treatment is a non-surgical skin micro-needling procedure with a short recovery period that encourages the skin’s own collagen synthesis and scarless healing to reduce the appearance of scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, pigmentation, and scarring from acne as well as to revitalize the skin.

What are the advantages of DermaPen Treatment?

The biggest advantage of using a DermaPen is the improvement in overall skin tone and texture that occurs after the procedure, as well as the minimized appearance of pores in the skin, reduced superficial wrinkles, and reduced appearance of stretch marks. A DermaPen is an efficient way to remove acne scarring and imperfections on the skin.

What does the DermaPen do, and does it hurt?

Using microneedles to travel up and down over the skin and puncture tiny holes as it moves, a DermaPen punctures the skin using an automated spring-loaded mechanism.

The DermaPen’s internal mechanism stimulates healthy collagen production and creates tiny skin punctures that let nutrients penetrate to the skin’s deepest layers. Because the DermaPen procedure is quick, the skin’s dermal layers are not harmed.

Although a numbing lotion can be administered beforehand to lessen this, it is not necessary as discomfort is minimal if a real Dermapen is used. During the course of the therapy, although not continuously, you can suffer pinpoint bleeding.

What is the downtime after DermaPen treatment?

Depending on the type of therapy, transient skin redness may last a few hours or a day. The redness usually goes away fast.
