Dermapen Basics

Dermapen is a patented motorized microneedling device. It is utilized in Aesthetic Medicine to promote healthy skin. Precision pinpricks are made at exact depth levels in order to stimulate an immune system response known as the Natural Healing Cascade. This allows for cellular turnover and the creation of new cellular structures. It is also referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy.

Commonly used on the face, Dermapen can also be used on the stomach, thighs, neck, chest and elsewhere. 

What is treated with Dermapen?

  • Fine Lines and Wrinkles
  • Acne Scarring
  • Large Pores
  • Loose Skin
  • Stretch Marks

Science Behind Dermapen

The use of sterilized microneedles on skin was first developed in the mid-90’s. It is considered a minimally invasive tool that can offer an improved skin appearance. A key feature is the ability to penetrate skin at specific depths with minimum damage to the epidermis. The small holes made in the stratum corneum (upper layer of skin) are known known as micro-conduits. After these are made two important things can occur:

  1. Platelets and neatrophils release important growth factors that create collagen.
  2. Active serums (usually for intradermal use) applied can deliver nutritive substances to aid in skin matrix rebuilding from within.

Advantages of Dermapen over other microneedling therapies

Depth Control: Dermapen allows for meticulous dermal penetration depth to precipitate the best therapeutic outcomes. Fragile facial skin may be reached at 0.5mm and other thicker skin settings may reach as far down as 2.5mm. This ensure that the best therapeutic outcomes are precipitated.

Appropriate Angle of Entry: The patented design of Dermapen means that the needles will always enter the skin perpendicularly. This dependable vertical entrance reduces unnecessary dermal damage and the risks that stem from it. In order words, the technology prevents unnecessary tissue trauma such as bruising and angled-lesions that can occur with other technologies.

Single-Use Needles: Sterilized, single-use needles diminish the risk of infection or dull points that do not deliver required depth.

Comfortable: Most Clients report no pain during treatment. SAI does offer a topical numbing crème prior to treatments that would otherwise be uncomfortable.

Low to no downtime: Feel free to resume normal activities after Dermapen treatment as officially scheduled downtime is not required. Instructions for gentle care of any treated areas will be provided to support optimum results. There is no recovery period required, however, aftercare always helps.

Following Dermapen therapy, Dr Clark will provide you with ways to care well for treated skin. This includes avoiding direct sun exposure and make-up for at least 48hours, care with cleansers, make-up, and skincare, as well as limiting heavy sweating from exercise which could aggravate newly treated skin.

Proven Results: Clinical trials that evaluate the use of Dermapen technologies supply evidence of promising outcomes that accompany this “relatively simple procedure that is cost-effective, well tolerated, and offers both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits.” Source 2

Beware Copycats: At-Home vs. Professional Use

Multiple imitators of Dermapen technology exist. These claim ‘safe’ do-it-yourself treatment from home with in-clinic results. Practice discernment on these claims and research well. Be aware that at-home treatments carry additional risk of uneven application, post-inflammatory pigmentation development, scarring, and infection. In the interest of Client-Safety as well as satisfactory and pleasing outcomes; SAI recommends in-clinic treatment.

Highly trained Aestheticians understand how to perform a Dermapen treatment with accuracy and have access to medical grade serums for post-treatment. Dr Clark advises professional treatment supplemented with at-home application of approved cosmeceuticals. This allows for the lowest risk with reliably excellent results.

Treatment Guidelines

Professional assessment will consider indications and health history before proceeding with Dermapen treatment. A series of treatments is often recommended to achieve the full potential of benefits. Evaluations will include essential precautions and instructions for how to further mitigate risks. It is important to let your Doctor know if you are currently using any type of blood thinning medication as this may preclude you as a candidate for Dermapen treatment.

Skincare Wins
