Effective treatment for acne scarring
Acne isn’t just hard to deal with when an outbreak is being treated. It often leaves unsightly scarring in its wake, providing a lasting reminder of this common yet much-maligned skin complaint. However, there is a solution. Dermapen treatments for acne scarring work by encouraging new tissue growth and breaking up the uneven, fibrous scar tissue left behind where skin follicles have been clogged up by dirt and oil. Patients typically need five to six short sessions to see the fantastic results of Dermapen treatment for acne scars, and healing time is fast because the Dermapen doesn’t damage the epidermis (unlike other treatments for acne scarring).

The Highlights of Skin needling are:
- Minimal downtime
- Suitable for treating all skin types
- Much less invasive than Dermabrasion, Lasers and Deep Chemical Peels and has similar results
- Does not require the removal of the epidermis therefore the healing time is shorter and there is no post-treatment skin sensitivity to UV light
Reduce the appearance of surgical scars
As well as being used to heal the deep scars caused by surgical incisions, Dermapen/Dermaroller is able to help reduce the appearance of scarring from a range of electrical, heat, chemical, radiation and friction burns. All these types of scars are prone to becoming thicker over time, and burn scars have the added problem of causing skin to tighten, which can be uncomfortable or even painful. The Dermapen penetrates the scar tissue to promote healing, resulting in a better appearance and more supple skin. The number of treatments required will depend on the type and severity of your scarring, and an appropriate course of treatment will be decided on during your initial consultation.
