First, your skin is cleaned, then for better results we use a collagen-stimulating product like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C serum or a skin lightener for pigmentation.
A small pen-like device will then glide gently along the skin, penetrating the layers of the skin closest to the surface to create tiny needle wounds. It’s designed to create a safe healing response within the body to ignite natural collagen and elastin production (without the harsh side effects), resulting in healthier, brighter, tighter skin with a more even tone.
After the treatment, soothing serums or hyaluronic acid are applied to heal and the skin and reduce redness.

Most people experience mild redness and possibly some swelling or bruising. Don’t worry, though. These reactions are short-lived! Redness (like a mild to moderate sunburn) will fade within a few hours to more of a pinkish tone (which might last 12 to 48 hours).
Then the magic happens… within a couple of weeks, you’ll notice a smoother, brighter, and more radiant appearance.

Dermapen treatments can be safely repeated every 4-6 weeks until you’ve achieved the results you’re after. The number of treatments required will depend on how your skin responds to the treatments and the extent of the issue you’re trying to improve. Some people will begin to see results after the very first appointment!

Absolutely. There’s no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
