  • Stimulates Collagen Production & Skin Renewal

  • Advanced Technology with Medical Supervision

Dermapen Medical Skin Needling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment designed to stimulate the skin’s natural repair processes, support collagen and elastin production, and improve overall skin texture and appearance.

Using advanced microneedling technology, Dermapen creates controlled micro-channels within the skin, triggering a natural wound-healing response. This process may help improve the appearance of fine lines, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, acne scars and certain signs of skin ageing.

At Medaesthetics, Dermapen treatments are performed by trained and experienced clinicians within a doctor-led, medically supervised clinical environment. Each treatment is tailored to the patient’s skin type, individual concerns and clinical suitability, with particular attention to treatment depth, safety and appropriate aftercare.

MOA

Dermapen Medical Skin Needling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that works by stimulating the skin’s natural repair and regeneration processes. Using a specialised device equipped with multiple fine, sterile needles, Dermapen creates thousands of controlled microscopic channels within the skin at carefully selected depths.

These micro-injuries initiate the body’s natural wound-healing response, activating a series of biological processes that encourage collagen and elastin production, cellular renewal and tissue remodelling.

The treatment works through three key phases:

1. Inflammation and Healing Response

The controlled micro-injuries trigger an initial inflammatory response, releasing growth factors and signalling molecules that activate the skin’s natural repair mechanisms.

2. Collagen and Elastin Stimulation

During the repair phase, specialised cells called fibroblasts are stimulated to produce new collagen and components of the extracellular matrix. These structural proteins play an important role in maintaining skin strength, elasticity and firmness.

3. Skin Remodelling and Rejuvenation

Over the following weeks and months, newly formed collagen undergoes gradual remodelling and maturation. This process may help improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, soften certain types of acne scarring and improve overall skin quality.

Medical Skin Needling Treatment Summary

A course of around 3–6 sessions spaced every 4–6 weeks is commonly recommended, with optional maintenance sessions every few months depending on your individual plan.

Each appointment typically takes about 30–45 minutes, including numbing where required.

The sensation varies between patients; the skin is usually prepared with a high-strength topical numbing cream, and options such as inhalation (laughing) gas or a skin-cooling device may also be used.

Most patients experience around 24–48 hours of redness afterwards, though recovery varies between individuals.

Results develop gradually over a course of treatments and vary between individuals; they are not immediate.

Improvements to scars, stretch marks and skin texture can be long-lasting but are not permanent; how long results last varies between individuals, and maintenance sessions are often recommended.

Most usual activities can be resumed soon afterwards, but you should avoid direct sunlight, strenuous activity and chlorinated water until the skin has healed.

Avoid direct sunlight, strenuous activity and chlorinated water until the skin has healed; aftercare guidance is tailored to you at your appointment.

Medical Skin Needling General Information

At Medaesthetics, Dermapen Medical Skin Needling is performed by experienced clinicians within a doctor-led, medically supervised clinical environment. Each treatment is carefully planned and tailored to the patient’s skin concerns, treatment goals and individual suitability.

Step 1: Comprehensive Skin Consultation & Assessment

Before treatment, your clinician will assess your skin condition, medical history and specific concerns, including fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture and signs of skin ageing.

A personalised treatment plan is developed, taking into consideration your skin type, treatment areas, clinical suitability and expected outcomes. Potential risks, contraindications and aftercare requirements are also discussed.

Step 2: Skin Preparation & Advanced Numbing

The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed and prepared using appropriate clinical hygiene protocols.

To maximise patient comfort, an extra-strength topical numbing cream may be applied before the procedure, where clinically appropriate. This helps minimise discomfort during medical skin needling, particularly when treating sensitive areas or using greater needle depths.

Step 3: Precision Dermapen Medical Skin Needling

Once the skin has been adequately prepared, your clinician uses the Dermapen device to create thousands of controlled microscopic channels within the skin.

The needle depth and treatment intensity are adjusted according to the treatment area, skin thickness and individual concerns.

These controlled micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing response, encouraging collagen and elastin production and supporting gradual skin remodelling.

Step 4: Post-Treatment Skin Care & Soothing

Following the procedure, the skin is gently cleansed and appropriate post-treatment skincare products may be applied to support comfort and recovery.

Temporary redness, warmth, sensitivity and mild swelling are common following medical skin needling. These effects generally settle over the following days, although recovery varies depending on treatment intensity and individual skin response.

Your clinician will provide personalised aftercare instructions, including guidance on sun protection, skincare products and activities to avoid during the initial healing period.

Step 5: Recovery, Follow-Up & Ongoing Skin Rejuvenation

Most patients can resume many normal daily activities relatively quickly, although visible redness and sensitivity may persist for several days.

Collagen stimulation and skin remodelling continue progressively over the following weeks and months. Depending on the skin condition being treated, a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart may be recommended.

At Medaesthetics, ongoing clinical assessment and medical oversight help ensure that treatment progress, skin response and future treatment recommendations are appropriately managed.

Our priority is to provide a comfortable, professionally supervised treatment experience with personalised care, established safety protocols and realistic clinical expectations.

When selecting a provider, consider their clinical qualifications, experience with medical skin needling, infection control standards, use of appropriate technology and ability to recognise and manage potential complications.

Direct medical supervision is particularly important for patients with complex skin concerns or a history of adverse skin reactions.

At Medaesthetics, we combine advanced Dermapen Medical Skin Needling technology with clinical expertise, personalised treatment planning and doctor-led medical supervision to provide a high standard of patient care.

As an established medical aesthetics clinic, our approach goes beyond conventional skin needling. Treatments are performed by trained and experienced clinicians with an understanding of skin anatomy, collagen stimulation, skin rejuvenation and the management of various skin concerns.
