Derma Pen

How Laser Derma Pen works?

The laser derma pen device has a small, handheld pen with a cartridge that contains tiny needles. The needles are used to create micro-injuries in the skin, which are about the size of a pinhead. These micro-injuries trigger the body's natural healing process, which results in the production of new collagen and elastin. This, in turn, can lead to a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Benefits

Laser derma pen treatment offers a number of benefits, including:

It is a minimally invasive procedure, which means that there is less downtime than with other types of skin treatments, such as surgery.

It is effective in treating a variety of skin conditions.

It can improve the overall appearance of the skin, including reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

It is a safe and effective procedure without side effects.

Pre-treatment Care

Candidates must follow some pre-procedural guidelines. Usually, the practitioner provides a set of instructions. However, some general pre-treatment instructions are as follows:

Only use dermatologist-recommended topical ointments

Stop using skin care products with Retin-A as an active ingredient

Avoid taking blood thinners such as aspirin, ibuprofen, beta-blocker, cod liver oil, vitamin E, etc. at least two weeks before the procedure

Sun exposure is harmful, so try to avoid. If you need to go out, wear sunblock with SPF 40 or more.

Do not wear makeup when coming for the procedure.
