What is Skin Needling?

During a Dermapen skin needling treatment, a Dermapen 4 device is used for the purpose of breaking down old scar tissue and stimulating skin cells for proliferation. This help restore and refresh your skins appearance, treating acne scarring, stretch marks, ageing and fine lines and boost your natural collagen production, easily and safely with minimal downtime. 

Known as ‘Collagen Induction Therapy’ is a non-surgical rejuvenation treatment that helps to restore collagen and elastin, improving skin tone and texture and improving the appearance of scars and stretch marks.

The Dermapen 4 treatment device glides gently along the skin, penetrating the layers of the skin closest to the surface, at a depth up to 2mm. The tiny, vibrating needles create numerous tiny needle wounds. When punctures are made using the Dermapen, the skin will treat the punctures as wounds and initiates a healing process where proteins such as collagen and elastin are produced. This therapy encourages the body to respond by creating new collagen and elastin fibres. As the skin responds, it plumps and thickens, reducing the appearance of scars, wrinkles and fine lines.

Does Dermapen treatment hurt?

Your Dermapen treatment experience will likely be minimally painful (if you feel any pain at all). The Dermapen 4 is designed so that the needles enter the skin at a perfect 90 degree angle, therefore the dermal roller doesn’t roll across your skin which is usually what causes the pain. Dermapen skin needling is minimally invasive and is considered a safe treatment that requires little to no downtime.

There are minimal side effects after a dermapen skin needling treatment, however some may experience redness, light flaking and slight swelling of the skin. After a Dermapen treatment, your skin is quick to rejuvenate new tissue and you should be able to see results within four to seven days after your session.

What are the benefits of a Dermapen treatment on the skin?

  • Improves the appearance of stretch marks

  • Plump and tighten your skin

  • Reduce acne scarring

  • Reduces pore size

  • Improves the quality and texture of the skin

  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles

How many Dermapen Treatments will I need?

We recommend a minimum of 3 sessions with 4 to 6 week intervals in between treatments. If you’re looking to reduce scars we recommend an average of 3 to 6 sessions. Usually, you will notice results after your first treatment but for long term results 4 to 6 treatments would be ideal.

Rejuvenation 3-6 treatments (4-6 weeks apart)

Acne scarring 6-12 treatments (4-6 weeks apart)

Stretch marks 6-12 treatments (4-6 weeks apart)

A "sunburnt" look is usually apparent immediately after treatment, Slight redness may last 1-3 days but can be covered with mineral make up.
