Dermapen

It is a form of skin restructuring that we use when we want to tighten the pores and dry-out the acne in patients with acne-prone skin. It is applied by the physician after the pores are cleaned and the skin is purified. It is an application which almost does not affect your social.

How does it work?

It’s based on the principle of opening micro-channel in the cracked skin, it can even be effective in old cracks. Cracks are filled with new cells while being repaired. The gaps which were formed due to stretching of the skin begin to erase point by point. At least 6 sessions per week are applied, depending on the size and width of the cracks. Some patients may need a second package. A removal of 5-10% can be achieved in each session.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Tiny micro cannulas enter the skin at a speed which a person cannot perceive pain and create micro channels. These intentionally created micro channels on the skin are filled with new cells, hence small cell foci (focus centers) are formed in the skin. Meanwhile, the pores are filled-up and the existing acne on the skin is forced to dry quickly. Afterwards, a very light chemical peeling can be added to the treatment of patients with denser pores, to achieve an even more effective tightening. 6-8 sessions are applied every two weeks.

After injury, areas of scars are left with fibrous tissue (fibrosis) instead of normal skin. As a result of the biological process of wound repair, the skin and other tissues of the body end up with scars. Scarring may be very small lesions and may occur at any wound site (eg, accident, illness, post-surgery). Scar tissue contains the same protein (collagen) as the tissue it replaces, but the composition of the protein fiber differs. In the scar tissue, the collagen is aligned in one direction, therefore appears thicker. Acne treatment is a long-term application and wound areas may cause scarring. Hormone disorder, allergies, environmental factors, and nutritional deficiencies are among the many causes of acne. Excessively oily skin and dead skin cells can cause inflammatory response reaction of acne scars. Also, deformation of the skin's collagen and thickening during healing can cause scar tissue.

A surgical scar is a place where all the layers form scarry tissue due to surgery. Since this is usually an incision, modification of all the layers is necessary. In the field of surgery, a surgeon cannot control all the factors that determine the appearance of scars. Many factors play a role in wound healing after treatment.

Surgical scar includes all the scars, hypertrophic and keloid scars, as well as pigmentation defects. These scars thicken over time. Thanks to its unique vertical needling and depth control up to 2.5mm, Dermapen provides superior treatment over other methods, as well as dermaroller. With its 11-needle cap, it fully penetrates the scar tissue and improves the appearance, flexibility, size, and mobility of the wound site.

Dermapen can provide rooted results in the treatment of scars. With the stimulation of new collagen and elastin, Dermapen stimulates collagenesis and ensures the formation of new capillaries. It can also increase the flow of blood to the region. Increasing blood flow creates a healthy basis for the new skin. With “skin needling”, uneven scar tissue is broken-down, and new tissue growth is stimulated. Dermapen accelerates the healing process and causes relatively less pain. It doesn’t disrupt the integrity of the epidermis while treating the area.

Every patient is distinctive, and conditions may vary. Typically, a treatment regimen consists of 5-6 sessions. However, an evaluation can be made on a basis of patient / physician.

Wrinkles often appear on the skin because of the aging process, which is due to thinning of the epidermal layers of the skin which has lost its ability to retain moisture. Wrinkles on the skin are caused by aging, repetitive facial expressions, as well as damage caused by the sun, smoking, poor hydration, and various other factors. Dehydration occurs when the total amount of water in the body decreases which can cause skin shrinkage. Over time, the dermal layer of the skin becomes thinner, and less collagen is produced over time. Under the dermal layer of the skin, there is a subcutaneous layer where fat cells are more concentrated to support the upper layers of the skin.

Dermapen application is a therapeutic protocol used to cure deterioration of formation of the skin over the years. Dermapen supports the process of protecting the integrity of the skin with Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT). It enables vertical micro needling with a 90-degree angle. Collagen stimulation can be performed quickly and easily with minimum epidermis damage, with 11 needles with the thickness of 33 gauge.

Professional support will be provided to each patient to determine the appropriate procedure. Different skin conditions may require different treatment protocols. Depending on the skin conditions, we can observe the desired results with 2 to 6 Dermapen sessions. Dermapen sessions repeated every 6 months can provide us with more permanent results in wrinkle treatment.

A burn is a type of injury caused by heat, electricity, chemicals, light, radiation, or friction. In most burns, only the skin (epidermal tissue and dermis) is affected, burn pain is common and can lead to scarred healing. Systemic follow-up is very important in burn injuries. Scar contracture in a burn means skin scarring has occurred after a second- or third-degree burn. When the skin is burned, a contracture may occur in the surrounding tissue, and it begins to pull the surrounding tissues.

A burn scar incorporates all forms, including hypertrophic and keloid scars and pigmentation defects. These scars thicken over time. Dermapen provides treatment of burn scars with vertical needling up to 2.5mm and depth control. With automatic needling (1 needle size is 33 gauge), treatment is accomplished significantly by improving the appearance of the wound site, tissue flexibility, and mobility as well as reduction of size.
