Dermapen
INTRODUCTION TO
Dermapen
Dermapen is the foremost microneedling device in the market, operating as a skin repair procedure to drastically reduce the appearance of big pores, fine
lines, wrinkles, acne scars and stretch marks. It can also be a great tool for tightening loose skin following significant weight loss.
Consultation
Prior to treatment, it is advised to stay away from alcohol and any nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs because they both increase the risk of bruising
and can make you more prone to bleeding both before and after the treatment. Before the operation, stop using items that contain salicylic acid (typically present in facial cleansers).
You will be briefed on the process, how the device works, and the results you should expect. The doctor will also take note of your medical history and
perform some examinations, in order to configure your treatment plan, as several treatments will be needed.
Procedure
Microneedling lasts for approximatively 30 minutes, but can last more, depending on the body part that is treated. It creates a succession of punctures in
the skin using small needles that are attached to a pen device. In order to restore itself in response to this, the skin produces collagen and elastin on its own.
Micro-needling is a popular acne scar therapy because it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which smooth out deep wrinkles and improve
the sunken or red appearance of stretch marks and scars.
The results of Dermapen last for approximatively 12 months. In the case of stretch marks however, they are permanent.
Recovery
You may typically resume your everyday activities right away, and it is less intrusive than many alternative treatments. You may experience some redness or
swelling, but no pain. Your doctor will prescribe some moisturizing creams to use for 1 or 2 weeks after the treatment.
Extreme temperatures (saunas, hot water), and unnecessary contact with the treated area should be avoided for the first 48 hours.
