Microneedling (Dermapen 4)

Dermapen 4 microneedling creates controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin, improving texture, fine lines, enlarged pores and acne scarring. A serum is driven into the skin during treatment for added effect, and the clinic offers an exosome add-on for a stronger regenerative boost. A short course gives the best results for scarring and texture.

Microneedling with the Dermapen 4 device uses a cluster of fine needles oscillating at high speed to create thousands of precise micro-channels in the skin. These tiny, controlled injuries trigger the body's natural wound-healing response, prompting fresh collagen and elastin production that firms the skin and refines its surface over the following weeks. The micro-channels also allow active serums applied during treatment to penetrate far more effectively. At Bednarek Clinic the skin is cleansed and a numbing cream applied before treatment, which takes around thirty to forty-five minutes depending on the area. Expect redness similar to mild sunburn for 24–48 hours, after which skin looks fresher and, over a few weeks, smoother and more even. It is well suited to uneven texture, enlarged pores, fine lines and mild-to-moderate acne scarring, and can be used on the face, neck and décolleté. For best results — particularly with scarring — a course of around three sessions spaced about four weeks apart is recommended. The clinic offers an ASCE+ exosome add-on that layers regenerative signalling factors onto the treatment for enhanced repair. Strict sun protection afterwards is essential. Microneedling is avoided over active acne or infection and in pregnancy; the doctor or cosmetologist confirms suitability at consultation.
