Discover the Miracle Solution to Acne, Pigmentation, Anti-Aging & Sun Damage: The Ultimate Guide to Dermapen Benefits

What is Dermapen, and How Does It Help with Acne, Pigmentation, Anti-Aging, and Sun Damage?

Dermapen therapy is a revolutionary system that combines a cutting-edge microneedling treatment with powerful skincare products.

If you want to improve the appearance of your skin, Dermapen skin treatments can target acne scarring, pigmentation problems (e.g. melasma), sun damage, and wrinkles.

But how does Dermapen work? What does the treatment involve? And what results can you expect to achieve?

In this post, we’ll cover everything you need to know about Dermapen therapy before you try it.

How Dermapen Works and What it Treats

During treatment, a trained practitioner guides the Dermapen microneedling device over the skin in one or more target areas. Tiny needles protrude from the Dermapen’s tip and puncture the skin at a shallow depth, creating minute injuries that trigger the body’s natural healing process.

A key part of the skin’s recovery relies on increased collagen and elastin production. These are essential elements of healthy skin. Collagen gives skin its structure, replaces dead skin cells, heals wounds, and maintains flexible tissues. Elastin, similarly, is a flexible protein that enables tissues to stretch and shrink back into place.

The human body produces less collagen and elastin as it ages, which is why skin becomes saggier and wrinkled. But by stimulating collagen and elastin production, the Dermapen microneedling system makes skin firmer, stronger, and more youthful.

The Dermapen microneedling device can treat a number of skin issues and conditions. It is an effective acne scarring treatment, and improves the appearance of melasma, sun damage, pigmentation imbalances, stretch marks, rosacea, and sagging skin. The Dermapen system can help you enhance your approach to skin care, anti-aging, wrinkles, and maintaining your overall appearance.

Dermapen therapy is more comfortable than less advanced microneedling treatments, which is a crucial factor to consider when trying this cosmetic solution for the first time. As it leads to less downtime, you can fit a Dermapen treatment into your routine easily.

In an expert’s hands, this acne scarring treatment microneedling device has the power to revitalize your skin with lasting results.

Benefits of Using a Dermapen on Acne Scars and Wrinkles

According to the Canadian Dermatology Association (CDA), acne affects 5.6 million Canadians. More than 80% of those living with acne are aged between 12 and 24, but it can affect people far beyond that age range. The condition can lead to visible acne scarring on the face.

While acne scarring can be covered with makeup, Dermapen therapy is an effective acne scars treatment. A practitioner can use the Dermapen on the areas affected to stimulate elastic and collagen production. The skin will start to heal, and the acne scarring will become less visible after multiple sessions. You may need between three and six Dermapen therapy sessions to achieve rejuvenated skin with a smoother, clearer complexion.

As well as providing acne scars treatment, practitioners can use the Dermapen for wrinkles, too. By encouraging collagen production, the Dermapen system gradually firms and strengthens the skin. Wrinkles and fine less will become less noticeable, and you will have clearer, stronger skin.

Using anti-aging skin care products is a major part of the Derma therapy process. After your in-clinic treatment is finished, we’ll demonstrate how to use Dermapen’s at-home anti-aging skin care products and tools to maximize your results.

The DP Dermaceuticals skincare line includes products for your morning and night routines:

• Facial cleansers formulated for your skin type
• Targeted skin treatments for wrinkles, acne, and other skin issues
• Advanced facial serums to stimulate natural skin healing
• SPF treatments to protect against additional skin damage
• Moisturizers and hydration products to promote a healthy glow

We also carry an antimicrobial skin cleanser, which may be applied before your microneedling treatment.

Dermapen Treatment for Pigmentation & Sun Damage

One of the many advantages of the Dermapen microneedling treatment is that it provides safe sunspots removal (dark spots).

Sunspots (also known as liver or age spots) typically develop on the skin in areas that are frequently exposed to sunlight. They tend to appear on the:

• Face
• Arms
• Hands
• Shoulders

Sunspots are most common in adults over the age of 50, though younger people who spend long periods in direct sunlight may develop them, too. You should wear sunscreen and stay out of the sun to reduce your likelihood of developing sunspots.

However, if you already have sunspots in visible areas and want to reduce them, you can try Dermapen therapy for sunspots removal. Dark spots will be less noticeable in treated areas after a course of Dermapen therapy sessions, as the microneedling treatment cultivates healing and new tissue growth.

Similarly, if your skin is affected by hyperpigmentation, melasma, or other pigmentation conditions, Dermapen treatments can create a more balanced skin tone. 

Hyperpigmentation is caused by excessive production of melanin, the pigment that regulates skin color. One or more areas may appear darker than surrounding ones, which can be particularly noticeable on the face.

Melasma is similar, though it may be caused by hormonal changes in pregnant women or by various medications (such as retinoids and birth control pills). Dermapen can treat both hyperpigmentation and melasma across several sessions, depending on the severity of your condition. Your practitioner will examine your skin during your consultation, and discuss the number of sessions you will need to achieve your goals.
