Dermapen / Skin NeedlingDermapen is an advanced skin needling system to stimulate the layer of skin where collagen and elastin is produced which results in the formation of new tissue. Skin needling or collagen induction therapy (CIT) is great for improving skin texture, open pores, fine wrinkles, stretch marks, pigmentation and is especially wonderful for disfiguring scars especially acne scarring which can be greatly improved. Clinical studies have demonstrated an improvement of acne scarring between 30-70%. A topical anaesthetic cream is applied to the area to numb the skin before treatment.
A course of 4-6 treatments is needed 4 weeks apart. The treatment can be performed on all skin types and anywhere on your body. There is no down time and most people can return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment. Your skin will be red-pinkish for several days after so this procedure is good to have before your days off. Good skin care home program including daily sun protection is imperative. |
