If you are the one who is seeking flawless youthful skin, then you must know about this advanced, versatile treatment—the Dermapen Treatment. This microneedling treatment not only treats aging signs but also addresses a wide range of skin concerns using the skin’s natural mechanisms. Are you wondering how this dermapen treatment works and what benefits you gain from it? Then keep reading to discover how it transforms your skin.

What is a Dermapen Treatment?

Also known as dermapen microneedling treatment, it is a form of microneedling treatment using a specialised device dermapen instead of using a derma roller. This dermapen device is equipped with tiny, sterile needles. Using these needles, dermatologists create microscopic punctures in the skin at a controlled depth, triggering a wound-healing response. As your skin repairs itself, it produces new collagen and elastin, resulting in improved skin texture, tone, and elasticity. Collagen is the protein responsible for keeping your skin firm, smooth, and youthful, while elastin helps maintain the skin’s elasticity. Unlike derma rollers, dermapen microneedling treatment allows for more precise and consistent results, minimising discomfort and reducing the risk of side effects.

How does dermapen microneedling work?

Dermapen microneedling treatment ability lies in the skin’s natural regenerative process. When the skin experiences an injury, even a controlled one, it triggers the body for tissue repair and regeneration. The key stages involved in this process are:

  • Inflammation: The micro-injuries created by the dermapen cause an initial inflammatory response, which helps disinfect the wounds, remove debris, and increase blood flow to the area.
  • Proliferation: During this phase, the body begins to produce new skin cells, collagen, and elastin. This is when the skin starts to repair itself, filling in fine lines, wrinkles, and scars.
  • Remodeling: This is the final stage that involves the newly formed collagen, leading to firmer, smoother skin with improved texture and tone.

What areas of the skin can be treated with dermapen microneedling treatments?

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Decollete
  • Hands
  • Scalp
  • Body

It is important to note that the suitability of dermapen microneedling for specific areas will depend on individual factors. During your consultation, our dermatologists will assess your skin and determine the best treatment plan.

What skin concerns are addressed with microneedling treatments?

The dermapen microneedling treatment procedure at Evenly Clinic

At Evenly Clinic, we prioritise your safety, so we perform all our treatments in a sterilised environment. Here is a step-by-step procedure:

  • You will meet one of our experienced dermatologists. They will thoroughly observe your skin and find out the severity; enquire about other skin concerns, medical history, and ultimate skin care goals.
  • As we break the skin with small punctures, it has to be clean. So, our therapist will cleanse the skin to remove skin impurities. A numbing cream is applied to the treatment area, and it sits for a few minutes till the skin is numb.
  • The specialised dermapen device is gently glided over the treatment areas, creating micro-injuries. The whole procedure may take 30–60 minutes, depending on the size and location of the treatment.
  • At the end, we may apply antibiotic gel or soothing creams to alleviate the pain.
  • Your skin may appear red and feel slightly tender, similar to mild sunburn. To avoid side effects, it is strictly recommended to follow post-care instructions.

Combining Dermapen with Other Treatments

To enhance the results of your Dermapen microneedling treatment, our dermatologists at Evenly Skin and Hair Clinic may recommend combining it with other treatments. Some popular options include:

  • PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): Often referred to as the “Vampire Facial,” PRP involves applying your own platelet-rich plasma to the skin during the microneedling process. This enhances collagen production and accelerates healing, leading to even more impressive results.
  • Chemical Peels: Combining microneedling with a chemical peel can further improve skin texture and tone by exfoliating the skin and allowing deeper penetration of active ingredients.

Dermapen microneedling Post-care instructions & tips

  • Avoid sun exposure, and while going out, apply sunscreen.
  • Nourish your skin with gentle products. Avoid irritating chemicals.
  • It’s best to avoid wearing makeup for 24-48 hours.
  • Drink water properly, as it helps the healing process and enhances the results.
  • Don’t apply a cold compressor to the treated area.
  • Don’t scratch, rub, or pick on the treated area.
