Some guests notice their skin looking fresher and more refined as it settles following treatment.
However, Dermapen works by stimulating gradual skin renewal and collagen production, so improvements can continue to develop over time.
For concerns such as acne scarring, pigmentation, fine lines or significant textural changes, a course of treatments may be recommended rather than a single appointment.
The number of Dermapen treatments recommended will depend on your skin, the concern being treated and your desired result.
Some guests may choose Dermapen as part of their ongoing skin maintenance, while concerns such as acne scarring or uneven texture may require a personalised course of treatments.
Your Dermal Therapist will recommend a treatment plan following your skin consultation.
Dermapen may help improve the appearance of certain types of acne scarring and uneven skin texture by stimulating collagen production and supporting the skin’s natural renewal process.
The type and severity of your scarring will influence the treatment approach and expected results, so we recommend having your skin assessed before beginning treatment.
Dermapen may form part of a treatment plan for some types of pigmentation and uneven skin tone.

Certain active skincare ingredients may need to be temporarily avoided before and after Dermapen.
