A topical numbing cream is generally applied before Dermapen Microneedling to improve comfort. Most patients experience mild pressure, vibration or temporary prickling rather than significant pain. Sensitivity can vary according to the treatment area and needle depth used.
About Dermapen (Microneedling)
Dermapen is an advanced microneedling device that creates controlled micro-injuries to stimulate the skin’s natural healing response. This collagen-boosting treatment enhances collagen and elastin production for improved skin texture, reduced acne scars and pimple marks, and younger-looking skin.
