Microneedling

The Dermapen® is a revolutionary microneedling device in terms of skin care. A clinical-use only device, it helps to refine the skin’s appearance and combat the visible signs of premature skin aging, at deeper layers of your skin.* Dermapen is highly suitable for skin rejuvenation as it can help tighten – even potentially ‘lift’ – your skin as it improves your skins underlying collagen (strength) as well as it’s external appearance.*

Dr. Sudeep Punia and our Skin Experts can treat your skin with special Dermapen techniques to:

While the results can be somewhat similar to fractional laser treatments, there are far less side effects & far less downtime than there would be with a Fraxel skin rejuvenation treatment, for example.*

Microneedling treatments can help reduce:

How does Microneedling Work?

The concept of microneedling is based on your skin’s ability to repair itself whenever it encounters physical damage or trauma such as abrasions, cuts, and other types of wounds. Normally, your skin destroys old damaged tissue immediately after an injury and replaces it with new healthy skin cells.*

Dermapen’s unique ability allows controlled induction of your skin’s self-repair mechanism (cellular repair and renewal) by creating controlled wounds (called “micro injuries”).* This technique stimulates the production of new collagen, which helps to create new, healthy skin.*

Wound healing in general resembles the following process over time. With a Dermapen microneedling treatment, however, the microneedling essentially creates very tiny ‘pinholes’ in your skin. This stimulates the cellular renewal and collagen rejuvenation process, without causing external surface damage or scars.* In fact, the treatment can help reduce acne scars and other facial skin imperfections.*

In addition to this, the punctures from microneedling treatments also act as micro-channels that help carry essential nutrients deeper into your skin layers for increased effectiveness.* The result is smoother, radiant and younger looking skin when you use top quality serums and other active-ingredient skin care products.*

Microneedling Procedure

Microneedling is performed in a safe and precise manner with the use of a sterile needle, by Dr. Punia or our qualified and highly trained Skin Expert.

It can easily be performed in the office and is typically completed within 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treated area and the extent of your pre-existing skin damage or aging that you want to improve.*

Before the procedure, a topical anesthetic will be applied on your skin to help minimize any potential discomfort.

Dr. Punia or our Skin Expert then places the Demapen over the target area, moving the hand piece back and forth.

Is the Microneedling procedure safe?

The treatment is not only very effective but it is also considered safe with few side effects or complications if you follow the post-treatment care instructions carefully.*

You can, however, expect some redness, minimal swelling and mild discomfort during or after the procedure.* These are usually quite tolerable for most patients.*

How many treatments will I need?

Every person’s skin is unique so the number of treatments you may need will vary depending on what condition(s) you want treated with microneedling.
