Dermapen® Micro Needling

At Derma Aesthetics Clinic, we believe that achieving radiant, youthful skin is within reach for everyone. Introducing our microneedling treatments, a non-invasive solution to rejuvenate your complexion and reveal a smoother, more youthful appearance.

What is Dermapen Micro Needling and how does it work?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing process, resulting in increased collagen and elastin production, which improves skin texture and appearance

The device (the Dermapen®) resembles a pen and consists of a number of small needles that puncture the top layer of skin to promote your bodies skin healing process.  The procedure involves holding the Dermapen vertically over the skin.  The small motor inside will be turned on which causes the needles to penetrate the skin by moving back and forth rapidly. This action slightly rotates the needles, and the action effectively opens pores and punctures the top layer of skin.

It is important for this puncturing to take place as this is what triggers skin rejuvenation.  To a certain extent, micro-needling tricks the skin into healing itself, leaving the skin refreshed and rejuvenated.

Areas Treated with Microneedling

Microneedling can effectively address a variety of skin concerns and is suitable for treating multiple areas of the face and body, including:

• Face:
  • Improve overall skin texture and tone, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and minimize pores for a smoother, more youthful complexion.
• Neck:
  • Target sagging skin and creases on the neck, helping to firm and tighten the skin for a more lifted appearance.
• Décolletage:
  • Rejuvenate the delicate skin on the chest and décolletage, reducing the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, and fine lines.
• Hands:
  • Minimize the signs of aging on the hands, including age spots, fine lines, and loss of volume, for smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Derma FAQs

• Will Dermapen micro-needling hurt?
  • A topical anaesthetic / numbing cream can be applied prior to treatment, usually 30 minutes before, to ensure the treatment is painless.
• How often will the pen puncture my skin?
  • The Dermapen is able to apply ~1,300 micro punctures per second.  These punctures stimulate the skin to produce collagen and elastin without compromising normal skin functions.
• How should I prepare for the treatment?
  • Drinking plenty of water and trying to eat a healthy diet in the week before your treatment will help prepare your skin for the treatment.  Maintaining a good skin care routine is advisable whilst it is recommended you exfoliate your skin 2-3 days before your treatment
• How is a Dermapen different from a Dermaroller?
  • Dermapen treatment is considered to be a superior treatment to Dermaroller as it is less painful and has less recovery time.
• How many dermapen treatments will be required?
  • Visible signs of skin rejuvenation can be achieved with a single treatment; however, multiple treatments may be required for more extensive problems such as acne scarring

Your Microneedling Treatment Experience

• Consultation: Your journey with microneedling begins with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced medical professionals. We’ll discuss your skin concerns, assess your skin type, and develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
