Dermapen

The Dermapen is a small microneedling tool which is used for very precise treatment of skin problems. 

The Dermapen device contains a number of tiny ‘micro needles’ which penetrate the skin’s outer layers.  This stimulates the skin’s own healing and rejuvenation processes and also allows serums or products to access deeper layers of the skin than would normally be achieved.

Dermapen is a small and precise microneedling device, but can achieve the best results through targeting specific problem areas, like around the eyes, specific lines, scarring, acne scarring. It has become a very successful treatment option for rejuvenating the skin, acne scarring and multiple other indications. Dermapen treatment can be used on its own or alongside other treatments.

This treatment is available at Clinicbe in Knightsbridge, London.
