Dermapen 4 Microneedling
Dermapen microneedling is an entirely natural process unlike injectable treatments. It works by stimulating the body’s own repair and renewal process to create collagen. Micro-fine needles are adjusted to different depths and speeds to create fractional puncture channels on the surface of the skin. These micro-channels carry customised serums deep into the skin, increasing its effectiveness and delivering healing nutrients.
• Dermapen microneedling can help reduce the appearance of:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Ageing/ sun-damaged skin
• Active acne or acne scars
• Pigmentation, including melasma
• Enlarged pores
• Rosacea
• Scars
• Stretch marks
• Hair loss
• Cellulite
• Unwanted tattoos
The Dermapen 4 can treat multiple concerns in a single session, thanks to its adjustable needle depth and oscillation speed. The micro-injuries caused by the treatment stimulate the production of collagen as your skin heals. Acne, trauma, pigmentation and a range of other ailments can cause blemishes on your skin. Ageing causes your skin to thin, sag and wrinkle.
Dermapen microneedling simply activates the skin’s natural self-rejuvenating function. A new layer of fresh tissue forms, creating a more youthful appearance on the surface and fighting antibodies underneath. These small punctures also allow active ingredients in topical creams to penetrate deeper for intense rejuvenation.

Facial redness may be experienced for 12 – 48 hours after a microneedling procedure. Most people can return to normal daily activities immediately after the treatment. I will help to advise on aftercare procedures to calm and cover any redness for an immediate return to your daily activities.
Though the duration to see results will vary slightly from person to person; on average you can expect to enjoy the benefits after just one microneedling procedure, within a couple of weeks. The exact duration of the results of microneedling depends on how your skin responds, your skin type, and other factors such as the severity of your skin issue. To achieve the full desired result, cumulative procedures and at-home protocols may be required. Remember microneedling is not a quick fix. The benefits of the new collagen production often take some time to show fully because your body is actually repairing itself and growing new skin tissue. Collagen is typically formed between 30 and 200 days. A single session can see an increase of 45% of collagen.
