microneedling for acne SYMPTOMS

Acne-prone skin often results from overactive oil (sebaceous) glands and hormonal imbalances. Excess oil (sebum) combines with dead skin cells and debris, clogging pores and leading to painful inflammation and bacterial growth. Acne can impact your emotions, self-esteem, and skin health, leaving behind scars or discoloration. Combining professional Dermapen microneedling for acne with a tailored serum can help you achieve a clear, radiant complexion.

At the heart of your microneedling treatment for acne is the advanced Dermapen 4™ device. Featuring a 16-needle cartridge, it creates up to 1,920 fractional micro-channels per second as it glides over the skin. Thanks to the ultra-fine needles, exceptional speed, and precision engineering, a Dermapen 4 clinical procedure is virtually painless and completed quickly.

microneedling for acne treatment overview

Acne often develops in areas with a high concentration of sebaceous (oil) glands, such as the mouth, chin, forehead, chest, upper back, and shoulders. It is categorized into non-inflammatory and inflammatory types. Non-inflammatory acne includes blackheads (open clogged pores appearing as black dots) and whiteheads (closed clogged pores resembling white bumps). Inflammatory acne features papules, caused by bacteria breaking pore walls, and pustules, pus-filled pimples with a milky appearance. Severe cases, like nodules and cysts, can lead to scarring. Microneedling for acne is an effective treatment to target these issues, helping to reduce breakouts and improve skin texture.

ACNE microneedling FAQS

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural wound healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

What sets Dermapen 4 apart from other microneedling devices?

Dermapen 4 is an advanced FDA approved microneedling device that offers superior precision and safety. It features an adjustable needle depth, ultra-fine needles, and a motorized system, allowing for precise targeting of different skin concerns. Additionally, it minimizes discomfort, reduces downtime, and delivers more consistent results compared to traditional devices. Dermapen 4 creates a staggering 1920 micro channels per second for effective collagen and elastin production. Please do not confuse dermapen 4 for other lesser microneedling devices. Dermapen 4 is one of only a couple FDA approved devices.

What skin concerns can microneedling address?

Microneedling can help improve:

Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne
Stretch marks
Uneven skin tone and texture
Large pores
Pigmentation
Sun damage
Ageing
Hair loss and alopecia
Scarring
Rosacea

Is microneedling painful?

Microneedling is generally well-tolerated. A topical numbing cream can be applied before the procedure to minimise discomfort. Patients may experience a mild prickling sensation during the treatment. However we advise it's best not to use numbing cream as it can hinder results. The treatment is over before you know it with barely any unpleasant sensations at all. Please read the next FAQ for detailed information on numbing cream effectiveness.

Does numbing cream hinder results?

The Dermapen 4 revolutionises microneedling by offering a comfortable, effective treatment without the need for numbing cream. As the most advanced microneedling device on the market, it delivers outstanding results with minimal discomfort. With aftercare like the HylaActive 3D Sculptured Face Mask, treatments are swift and nearly sensation-free, redefining patient care standards.

While some clinics use Topical Local Anaesthetics (TLA) for microneedling, research shows they are not essential for effectiveness. A 2017 study demonstrated that microneedling improved skin elasticity and collagen production in patients with stretch marks, even without TLA (Casabona & Marchese, 2017). Another 2014 study found microneedling for hair loss significantly effective without TLA, highlighting its tolerability (Chandrashekar et al., 2014). Additionally, studies reveal TLA may hinder collagen synthesis, with research from the University of Washington showing local anesthetics like lidocaine and mepivacaine impair fibroblast function, essential for collagen production (Bentov et al., 2016). By eliminating reliance on TLA, Dermapen 4 prioritises safety and efficacy, making it a game-changer in skin rejuvenation.

How long does a microneedling session take?

A typical session lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and the patient’s specific needs.

What should I expect after a microneedling session?

After the procedure, your skin may appear red and feel slightly sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects typically subside within 24-72 hours. Over the following days, your skin will begin to look more radiant and refreshed.

How many sessions are needed to see results?

Most clients see noticeable improvement after 3-6 sessions, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. However, the number of sessions required may vary depending on the individual’s skin concerns and goals.

Is there any downtime?

Microneedling has minimal downtime. While redness and mild swelling may occur, most clients can resume their regular activities within 24 hours. It is important to avoid direct sun exposure and follow post-treatment care instructions.

Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?

Yes, microneedling can be combined with other treatments like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), mesotherapy, or specific serums to enhance results. Consult your practitioner to discuss the best combination for your skin.

Is microneedling safe for all skin types?

Microneedling is generally safe for all skin types and tones. However, individuals with certain skin conditions, such as active acne, eczema, or psoriasis, may need to avoid the treatment. A consultation is recommended to determine suitability.

What should I do to prepare for a microneedling session?

To prepare for your session:

Avoid sun exposure, tanning, or using retinol products 24-48 hours before the treatment.
Refrain from taking anti-inflammatory medications, as they can interfere with the healing process.
Remove makeup and cleanse your skin before the session.

What is the cost of microneedling?

The cost varies depending on the treatment area and additional add-ons, such as PRP or mesotherapy. Contact our clinic for detailed pricing information.

Are there any side effects?

Microneedling is a safe procedure when performed by a trained professional. Mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity are common and temporary. Rare side effects include infection or pigmentation changes, which are minimized with proper aftercare.

What aftercare is required?

After microneedling:

Use a gentle cleanser and apply a hydrating moisturizer.
Avoid makeup, direct sun exposure, and strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.
Apply sunscreen regularly to protect your skin.

A full list of dos and don't are emailed to you after completing the consultation form.

Who should not undergo microneedling?

Microneedling may not be suitable for:

Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals
Those with active skin infections or open wounds
Clients with a history of keloid scarring
