Dermapen Cardiff

We Are delighted to introduce a new skin rejuvenation therapy, the Dermapen®. Faster, less painful and more effective than the Dermaroller, the new Dermapen® prompts the natural release of the skin's collagen and elastin for amazing anti-aging benefits, all without surgery.As we age, the natural production of the skin's supporting cells, fibroblasts and the skin's collagen and elastin, naturally diminish leading to wrinkles, sagging and hollows. Stimulating the skin to produce more fibrolasts, collagen and elastin is called collagen induction therapy and is used as an alternative to facelifts and other surgical anti aging interventions: •Skin tightening, lifting and rejuvenation•Acne scars and wound healing•Improvement in wrinkles and fine lines•Pigmentation•Stretch marks•Minimise pore size The new Dermapen® takes this effective collagen induction therapy to the next level, giving amazing results with less damage, less pain and less recovery time. The older Dermaroller penetrates the skin at an angle, meaning it causes more damage and is difficult to use on scar tissue and on facial curves.The new Dermapen®'s micro needles penetrate vertically, solving all these issues while still providing an excellent therapeutic result. Plus the automatic vibrating function of the Dermapen® increases the effectiveness of the treatment by increasing the absorption of serums, while reducing pain and discomfort. The Dermapen® penetrates the skin from 20 to 90 times per second with an adjustable speed and from a 25mm to 1mm depth, depending on the area being treated.

All new clients are taken through a free non-commitment medical review and full consultation to help identify any concerns or issues before being prescribed appropriate products, treatments or courses.

Many individuals find stretch marks unsightly and would like to have something done to improve their appearance. The Dermapen™ offers an effective solution to this problem. This 30-minute treatment employs the use of micro-medical skin needling to create columns that are approximately 0.1mm in width to penetrate the skin dermis and thus allow the body to regenerate naturally and repair the skin, working in the dermis, thereby tackling the problem at its roots. Skin needling is a safe and precise procedure that does not require the removal of healthy epidermis which means that it offers a rapid healing time and does not cause any comparable pain. The procedure produces collagen layers on a scale similar to laser therapies. Types of Stretch Mark TreatmentsSkin needling using the Dermapen™ is one of the most effective available treatments for stretch marks. After an initial consultation with your practitioner, if it is agreed that you will benefit from the Dermapen™ Therapy, local anaesthetic is applied to the affected area in order to numb it; the anaesthetic is then allowed to work over the course of 30 minutes. The actual dermapen procedure takes 20-30 minutes and is virtually painless.Following the treatment, a soothing cream is applied and should continue to be applied at home for the next couple of days. For the first 24 hours post-procedure, the affected area will look red and may be slightly swollen (very similar to the appearance of mild sunburn). This is the normal expected result and is not painful. Although significant results are often seen following the first treatment, your practitioner will generally recommend between three and five treatments for optimum and long-lasting effects. This treatment is contra-indicated in the presence of active acne and if there is a tendency to form hypertrophic or keloid scars.
