Microneedling, often performed with a device like a Dermapen, is a cosmetic procedure that involves using tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing process.
How does microneedling work with a Dermapen?
The Dermapen device contains fine needles that make small, controlled punctures in the skin’s surface. This process prompts the skin to produce collagen and elastin, leading to improved texture and appearance.
