Dermapen 4: Skin Needling with a Science Meets Soul Approach.

Updated: Aug 25

ree

If you’ve been curious about micro-needling and how it can transform your skin, Dermapen 4 is one of the most advanced options available today. This isn’t just about “surface-level” improvement—this is about real, visible results that support your skin’s long-term health. Whether your skin concerns are around ageing, acne, scarring, pigmentation or inflammation, the holistic-focussed Dermapen 4 Skin Needling treatments cover it all!

Here’s what you need to know...




What is Dermapen 4 Skin Needling?

Dermapen 4 is a precision micro-needling device that stimulates your skin’s natural healing process. Tiny, controlled needles create micro-channels in the skin, triggering collagen and elastin production. This helps:

  • Smooth fine lines and wrinkles

  • Reduce scar tissue, including acne scars

  • Improve pigmentation issues and melasma

  • Minimise redness and inflammation

  • Support stretch mark reduction

Unlike older techniques, Dermapen 4 is precise, adjustable, and versatile—treating areas others can’t reach with more comfort and safety.



What to Expect During Treatment

During a Dermapen 4 session, your comfort and results are my priority:

  • Mild sensation: Most people feel very light discomfort, similar to a gentle prickling.

  • Mesotherapy infusion: Active corrective ingredients are applied directly into the skin to enhance results.

  • LED light therapy: This reduces redness, calms inflammation, and accelerates recovery.

  • Progress images: Every session is documented so we can track improvement and celebrate results.

Your first session is more than a treatment—it’s a consultation. Together, we’ll explore your skin goals, current health, lifestyle, and whether you prefer a simple or more in-depth skin program. This “science meets soul” approach ensures treatments are personalised and effective.

Recovery and Aftercare

After a session, your skin goes into repair mode. Here’s what you might notice:

  • Mild redness or swelling, typically lasting 1–2 days

  • Slight dryness or tightness in the first week

  • Occasional small spots of bruising or petechiae (rare)

Tips for a smooth recovery:

  • Avoid intense exercise, saunas, swimming in chlorinated water, shaving, chemical peels, or laser treatments for the first 12–24 hours

  • Use only prescribed homecare products for 3–5 days, avoiding AHAs, BHAs, and retinoids

  • Apply a high-quality SPF daily to protect healing skin

Recovery is relatively quick, and your skin will continue improving over the following weeks.




How Often Are Treatments Needed?

  • Standard: every 6 weeks for general skin rejuvenation

  • Pigmentation/melasma: treatments may be spaced 2–4 weeks apart

Between treatments, it’s essential to follow your homecare program, including any dermal rollers or targeted serums I recommend. This ensures long-term results and keeps your skin supported.

Why My Dermapen Work is Different

Not all micro-needling is created equal. Here’s what sets my approach apart:

  1. Mesotherapy infusion: Your skin receives active, corrective ingredients during the treatment, not just after.

  2. LED light therapy included: Reduces redness, calms inflammation, and helps your skin recover faster.

  3. Science meets soul: Each first session involves a detailed consultation considering your skin goals, health, lifestyle, and preferences.

  4. Progress tracking: Before-and-after images ensure we are focusing on results, not guesswork.

  5. Tailored homecare: Your skin routine between sessions is designed to support and accelerate treatment outcomes.

    This isn’t a cookie-cutter approach—it’s personalised, intentional, and results-driven.

Who Should Avoid Dermapen 4?

While Dermapen 4 skin needling is safe for most people, there are some situations where treatment is not recommended:

  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding – to ensure safety for you and your baby

  • Active skin infections – including cold sores, bacterial or fungal infections, or acne flare-ups in the treatment area

  • Severe eczema or psoriasis – in areas with active inflammation

  • Blood clotting disorders or use of blood-thinning medications – may increase bruising or bleeding risk

  • Recent use of certain medications or procedures – including isotretinoin (Accutane) within the last 6–12 months, recent chemical peels, or laser resurfacing in the area

If you have any health conditions or are unsure whether micro-needling is safe for you, we’ll discuss this thoroughly during your initial consultation. Safety always comes first, so every treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs.

The Bottom Line

Dermapen 4 treatments aren’t just about surface improvements—they’re about supporting your skin’s natural strength, resilience, and radiance. With a combination of micro-needling, mesotherapy, LED therapy, and a customised plan, you’re investing in skin that looks and feels healthier for the long term.
