Dermapen 3 can be used to treat the appearance of:

• Aging skin
• Vertical lip lines
• Hyperpigmentation
• Skin tightening and rejuvenation 
• Enlarged/Dilated pores
• Stretch marks
• Scars (acne, surgical and burns)

Dermapen 3 utilizes fractional micro-channeling to vertically pierce the skin with patent-pending AOVN technology.  Dermapen 3 glides over skin creating millions of fine channels.  These channels help in transdermal delivery of topically applied formulations.   Dermapen 3 systematically creates micro-channels in the skin and the body naturally responds by launching processes to repair the physical damage.  The result is an increased production of normal woven collagen, similar to fractional laser treatments, but without the side effects and downtime. Dermapen 3′s single use cartridges eliminate risk of cross-contamination, while the adjustable settings allow for a treatment that is fully tailored to your individual needs.  Dermapen 3′s design also allows for it to be used in hard to reach areas such as around eyes, eyelids, earlobes, neck, lips, and nose.

How many treatments are recommended for rejuvenation, acne scarring and stretch marks?

Rejuvenation:      4-6 treatments      4 weeks apart

Acne Scarring:      6 treatments        6 weeks apart

Stretch Marks:     4-8 treatments      4-6 weeks apart

How long should it take before I see results?

Typically, you will see results after the 1st treatment.  Lasting and more significant results will become visible after 4 to 6 treatments (spaced    4-6 weeks apart).  The condition of your skin will continue to improve over the next 6-12 months after a course of treatments, especially when combined with the recommended post-treatment care. 

Is there any downtime after treatments?

Generally no, but you may experience facial redness for 12 to 48 hours after the treatment.
