Dermapen Microneedling: Prices, Procedure, Before and After
Dermapen is a microneedling treatment that stimulates collagen production and activates skin renewal, improving texture and firmness.
Dermapen Treatment
If you are looking for a way to revitalize your skin, then Dermapen is an excellent choice. It is an innovative microneedling treatment that activates the skin's natural ability to regenerate. It redefines the way we care for our skin and has excellent results in treating wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and dyschromia. Furthermore, it boosts collagen and elastin production, offering more youthful, smooth, and radiant skin.
What is Dermapen? Dermapen is an advanced pen-like device , at the tip of which are many delicate needles. These needles create microscopic channels in the epidermis, activating the body's natural healing mechanisms. Its philosophy ( microneedling ) is based on the body's natural function to produce collagen and elastin to heal skin injuries. When these microscopic punctures are created, the body responds by producing new collagen and elastin, the two proteins responsible for the skin's elasticity and youthfulness.
How does Dermapen work? Its technology is based on the microneedling method, a process that has evolved significantly in recent years. During the treatment, the device's microscopic needles penetrate the epidermis and cause controlled micro-injuries. These "injuries" immediately activate the skin's healing mechanism and: Increase collagen and elastin production Improve blood circulation in the area Accelerate the rate of skin cell renewal During the treatment, a special therapeutic material containing hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and amino acids is applied to the skin. These ingredients are absorbed deep into the skin through the microscopic channels created by the Dermapen and nourish the skin from the inside out. Alternatively, there is the option to use autologous material (PRP - platelet-rich plasma) obtained from your blood via venipuncture, offering even more personalized results.

Is the Dermapen application a painful procedure?
The procedure is almost painless because we apply topical anesthetic cream before the treatment. You may only feel a mild pressure or slight tingling during the application.
Will there be irritation after the treatment?
After the treatment, the skin usually shows a mild redness, similar to a light sunburn, which subsides within 24-48 hours. At the same time, however, you will immediately notice improved skin texture and radiance.
What if I have sensitive skin?
It is also suitable for sensitive skin, as the specialist can adjust the depth and intensity of the treatment according to your skin type.
Should I do Dermapen or laser for dyschromia?
If you have dyschromia, Dermapen is a milder and equally effective option, especially for darker skin types. Unlike laser, it does not use heat, thus reducing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and is suitable for all skin types. It offers targeted action without affecting the healthy skin around the treatment area. See the differences with fractional laser in detail.
Can I wear makeup afterwards?
It is recommended to avoid makeup for the first 2-3 days. After this period, you can use light, non-pore-clogging makeup, avoiding products with chemical ingredients.
What is the ideal season for Dermapen?
It is recommended that the treatment be carried out during the winter months, when sun exposure is limited. However, with proper sun protection, it can be done throughout the year as long as you use high-SPF sunscreen daily after the treatment.
Are there any side effects?
As with any medical treatment, there may be some side effects, which are limited when performed correctly by qualified personnel. Dermapen, when applied too intensely and deeply on sensitive skin or in areas where the skin is thinner, can cause injury that may be uncomfortable for a few days. Additionally, direct sun exposure can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (melasma). Even more rarely, there is a possibility of an allergic reaction to the material used, and this is why medical history is important.
Can I do Dermapen at home or is it better in the clinic?
Although there are microneedling devices for home use, professional application in the clinic is clearly superior. In the clinic, sterilization and hygiene conditions are ensured, high-quality professional therapeutic materials are used, and the treatment is tailored to your specific needs. Professional devices offer better and faster results, while minimizing the risks of complications. Home devices may offer some mild improvement, but they cannot be compared to the results you will get from a professional treatment.
What are the prices for Dermapen?
The prices for Dermapen treatment start from 110€ and depend on the material used.
Conclusion Dermapen stands out as a modern and targeted method for skin rejuvenation. Through controlled micro-needling in combination with beneficial ingredients, it enhances the natural regeneration process, thereby improving the appearance of the skin. It is an ideal solution if you want younger-looking, smoother, and radiant skin, utilizing the benefits of microneedling with precision and safety.
