Collagen Induction Therapy (Dermapen and Micro-needling)

The dermal roller is a mesotherapeutic device used to make very tiny holes or channels into the skin, which stimulates rejuvenation of the skin by the formation of new collagen and elastin and activating the body’s own healing cascade.The microchannels also aid in the penetration of therapeutic serums to a deeper level in the skin, applied simultaneously for active skin rejuvenation, hydration, pigmentation and hair growth. The procedure increases the production of collagen, just like laser and ablative therapy, but with minimal damage to the protective layer of the skin

Skin needling can provide drastic results improving the appearances of the scars. The physical nature of “skin-needling” breaks up this fibrous and uneven scar tissue and stimulates the growth of new tissue.A dermapen is a battery operated device that uses a sterile disposable tip with multiple small needles. The benefit of a dermapen is that the depth of the penetration of the needles can be adjusted according to the skin of the patient, the procedure is quick and thorough as it can reach difficult areas e.g. the upper lip, beneath the eyes and neck.
