What Is Dermapen?
Dermapen, also known as collagen induction therapy or skin needling, is an advanced clinical treatment that uses medical-grade, micro-needles to penetrate the top layers of the skin. This creates micro-channels in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural collagen production, whilst also dramatically increasing the bioavailability of topical treatments and further enhancing their absorption. Dermapen is commonly used to treat various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation issues, and uneven skin tone.

DERMAPEN INFORMATION
Find out about Dermapen treatments at Inigo Cosmetic in Brisbane.
Dermapen is a microneedling device that works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process triggers the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. As the skin heals, it may become firmer, smoother, and more even in texture.
Microneedling also helps to improve the absorption of topical skincare products, enhancing their effectiveness.
Dermapen may be used to treat the skin on almost any area of the face or body. Dermapen treatments improve the appearance of:
- Hypo and Hyper pigmentation (Vitiligo, Melasma, etc)
