DermaPen is a skin treatment that consists of using multiple thin needles to heal the skin (from scars, acne, wrinkles, and pigmentation), stimulate collagen generation, and rejuvenate the face of the patients.
The DermaPen Micro-Needling treatments come with a bunch of benefits and advantages for your skin. We've put together the most common ones:
DermaPen treatments are a long-lasting solution for everyone, as the effect of the initial round of Micro-needling treatments can still be noticeable for several months to 2 years. With that being said, there are a couple of factors to take into consideration, like the number of treatments the patient receives, their age, their skin type, and the skin condition they want to address.
Any cosmetic procedure penetrating the skin will undoubtedly have side effects!
DermaPen treatment will often cause short-term redness, swelling, and, on some occasions, skin flaking that will last only a couple of days after the procedure.
If you experience any other side effects like bleeding, skin infection, or bruising, you consult the healthcare provider, and similarly to most skin treatments, sunscreen is recommended.
Every patient should get their dermatologist's green light before performing any Micro-needling procedure; for instance, people with active acne or oral herpes shouldn't undergo this treatment until their lesions heal, as Micro-needling is likely to cause damage to active breakouts.

DermaPen doesn't have disadvantages but rather fleeting side effects that commonly occur with micro-needling devices and may include bleeding, bruising, redness, tightness, itching, and peeling.
Dermatologists recommend a series of four to six Micro-needling sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart, to have the full desired results. However, some patients will require more sessions if their skin condition is more severe.
We discourage individuals from using DermaPen at home as any Micro-needling device can worsen the skin condition if the treatment isn't done in the right way or the wrong pen is used. Plus, there's a certain depth the needles should penetrate the skin to boost collagen production, so these procedures are very delicate and require the involvement of an expert dermatologist.
You should ideally have a shower 24 hours after your Micro-needling treatment, as the openings will have closed by then, and there is less of a chance for bacteria to get in.
Absolutely, like any medical procedure, dermaPen treatments can go wrong if not performed correctly or if the patient has specific contraindications.
