Dermica Pen Microneedling

Dermica pen microneedling at Laserstudio uses a professional 11-needle motorised device adjustable between 0.25–2.5 mm penetration depth and 25–90 punctures per second to create controlled micro-channels in the skin that trigger the body's collagen-repair cascade. The needles penetrate without dragging or tearing, delivering a consistent, adjustable treatment across different skin thicknesses and concern depths. Each session includes a choice of seven therapeutic serums — including hyaluronic acid with vitamins — infused through the freshly created micro-channels for superior absorption. Results develop over 3–4 weeks as collagen remodelling progresses. Mild redness is expected for 24–48 hours. Applications include facial rejuvenation, acne scarring, and stretch mark reduction.

Dermica pen microneedling at Laserstudio is performed with a motorised needle-cartridge device engineered for precision collagen induction therapy. The Dermica pen uses a sterile single-use applicator head containing 11 fine stainless-steel needles arranged in a tight formation. The needles oscillate at 25–90 punctures per second — the operator selects the speed setting according to the treatment area and the patient's sensitivity — and penetrate to a depth adjustable between 0.25 mm (superficial epidermal treatment) and 2.5 mm (deeper dermal stimulation for scars). This mechanical micro-injury mechanism triggers the wound-healing cascade without causing lasting tissue damage: epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts respond by upregulating growth factors (EGF, VEGF, PDGF, TGF-β1) that drive collagen type I and III synthesis, elastin deposition, and angiogenesis. The result — visible over 3–4 weeks as remodelling completes — is improved skin firmness, finer texture, reduced scar depth, and a more even, luminous complexion. Immediately after needling, the micro-channels remain patent for 30–60 minutes, providing a superior permeation window for active ingredients. The clinic offers seven therapeutic serum options applied directly into the channels during this phase: a hyaluronic acid and vitamin complex is the most broadly indicated (hydration, elasticity support), while targeted serums address specific concerns such as pigmentation, sensitivity, or post-acne inflammation. The serum infusion step amplifies the structural treatment with a nutritive component. Treatment courses are protocol-specific: facial rejuvenation typically requires 4–6 sessions at 3–4 week intervals; acne scarring responds to 6–8 sessions at the same spacing; stretch marks require a minimum of 10 sessions due to the greater dermal density at these sites. Aftercare is minimal — mild redness and tightness last 24–48 hours, and light mineral makeup may be applied after approximately 2 days. UV protection with SPF 30+ is required for 2 weeks after each session as the skin is temporarily more photosensitive. Contraindications include active eczema or psoriasis at the treatment site, active cold sore (herpes simplex) lesions, current anticoagulant therapy, and broken or infected skin. Patients on isotretinoin must wait 6 months after completing the course before undergoing microneedling.
