SKIN VITALITY PROUDLY SERVING CANADIANS SINCE 1992

The Dermapen microneedling pen provides an unparalleled response through the segmented delivery of microneedles, creating micro injuries to the epidermis (outer layer of skin) and dermis (the inner layer of skin).

Erase the Signs of Aging with Dermapen MicroNeedling

Dermapen Treatments™ are a popular, non-invasive, and effective option for those with:

  • Uneven Skin Tone
  • Age Spots and Thinning
  • Sagging Skin 

3 DERMAPEN SOLUTIONS TO CHOOSE FROM

Dermapen World is revolutionizing the microneedling industry by offering a virtually pain-free procedure—there’s no longer any need for numbing cream—and the results are second to none.

1. Anti-Aging

  • Dermapen Treatments effectively reduce the appearance of age and sun spots, lines and wrinkles, thinning and sagging skin, which are all part of the natural ageing process due to reduced collagen in the skin. 
  • Microneedling stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, boosting elasticity and repairing flaws.

 

Anti Aging Treatment

The professional-grade Dermapen 4™ device effectively reverses the visible signs of ageing in two ways. Firstly the 16-needle cartridge creates up to 1,920 fractional micro-channels per second, triggering the body’s natural wound healing response to activate more collagen and elastin.

2. Scar Rejuvenation

  • Dermapen Treatments involve reducing bulky scar tissue with targeted MicroNeedling, activating regulated collagen to either flatten or plump the scarred region. 
  • Specialty Dermapen Dermaceuticals™ skincare products support the body’s natural healing process and minimizes redness/discolouration.

 

SCAR TREATMENT

The professional device penetrates the deeper layers of the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. The skin is oxygenated and lymphatic drainage activated, regenerating the acne-affected area.

3. Pigmentation

  • Dermapen Treatments are highly effective for treating unwanted pigmentation. 
  • The treatment is for all skin shades, but is a particularly beneficial solution for dark skin tones, where laser treatments may not be the safest option due to further pigmentation risks.

 

PIGMENTATION TREATMENT

Treatment results can vary based on your own unique condition. The Dermapen 4™ has incredible results across the board when a treatment programme is followed and combined with ongoing home care.

Dermapen Acne Treatments at Skin Vitality

It is very important to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin for healthier and younger-looking skin and this can be done with the Dermapen skin needling treatment.

Dermapen skin needling will create micro-injuries which will ultimately trigger the growth of fibroblast cells that will stimulate the production of collagen resulting in plumper and smoother-looking skin.

What areas can The Dermapen be used?

Advanced surspace™ tip placement with patented 12 tip needle arrangement creates maximum efficiency tip depth control.

12 needle pins ensure optimal needle count providing more penetration opportunity.

Depth changes adjusted by tip rotation; optimizes safety and control. Tips adjust from 0.5mm – 2.5mm.

DermaPen MICRONEEDLING Before AND After

Best Microneedling Toronto

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that is used to encourage collagen production, also known as collagen induction therapy via microinjuries to the skin. The treatment is also used to treat a wide range of skin concerns using small, sterilized needles. It can help smooth, firm, tone skin, and improve the overall appearance of scars, acne, and age-related wrinkles and dark spots.  

Due to the minimally invasive nature of Microneedling, it requires little to no downtime and is considered safe for most individuals. However, if you are someone that uses certain acne medications, or have moderate to severe psoriasis and/or eczema, please speak to one of our experienced medical consultants to see if this treatment is right for you. 

Microneedling has been growing in terms of popularity over the last couple of years due to its growing list of benefits; one being its ability to rejuvenate and plump the skin with minimal discomfort and very little to no downtime. The micro needling treatment can be adjusted to fit individual patient needs to help you reach your personal aesthetic goals. 

DermaPen Treatments

  •  Acne Treatment – DermaPen’s 16 needle point cartridge glides over the skin, creating an impressive up to 1,920 fractional microchannels per second thanks to our sophisticated, groundbreaking technology. This state-of-the-art device penetrates the deeper layers of the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. The skin is oxygenated, and lymphatic drainage activated, regenerating the acne affected area. 
  • Anti-Aging Treatment – Microneedling stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, boosting elasticity and repairing flaws. The potent anti-aging and repairing actives in our DP Dermaceuticals™ Meso-Glides™ are infused directly into your skin for enhanced results. The process ignites natural collagen and elastin production from within repairing the surface layers to result in healthier looking skin. 
  • Pigmentation Treatment – Thousands of flawless fractional microchannels are created in your skin to promote a more balanced and normalised cellular function with regulated melanin production. As the melanocytes (pigment producing cells) are directly targeted, a repair and corrective process encourages even skin tone for a smooth and radiant appearance.

Founded in 1992, Skin Vitality Medical Clinic has 13 Locations across Southeastern Ontario. Our Medical Team consists of over 200 professionals including 10 Medical Doctors, 40 Nurse Practitioners and dozens of Registered Nurses and Registered Practical Nurses. We are the Largest Provider of Botox®, Juvederm®, CoolSculpting®, Hair Restoration®, Sculptra®, EMSculpt® and Fraxel® in Canada. 

How Does The Dermapen work?

The Dermapen® is an automated micro-needling device with a disposable tip cartridge that is made up of 12 micro-needles, which uses proprietary technology to penetrate vertically into the skin. The stamping action of the Dermapen’s vertical tip creates invisible micro-injuries to the skin, while stimulating the skin’s natural ability to heal itself and increase the production of new collagen. In doing so, these micro-injuries encourage and harness the body’s innate ability to regrow and repair the skin through normal physiological processes and the skin becomes rejuvenated and refreshed.

DermaPen

Every Dermapen tip is outfitted with 12 needles and features our patented technologies, which include SureSpace™ and SafLok™. Accordingly, these safety enhancements can be found in every Dermapen needle tip and pen.

By using SureSpace™ and SafLok™ microneedling pen technologies, Skin Vitality’s practitioners can deliver patients the safest microneedling treatment possible, while getting the best microneedling results for their patients.

What to expect during your Microneedling appointment:

Your healthcare provider will start your appointment by cleaning your skin in the treatment area and once cleaned a numbing cream or ointment, such as lidocaine gel is applied. This is done about 30 minutes prior to your procedure. 

Once numb, your healthcare provider uses a handheld device to make tiny pinpoint wounds in your skin via tiny needles at the tip of the device. Your healthcare provider moves the device slowly and gently across your skin. Based on what your goal is, your health care provider can change the length of the needles to achieve the most optimal result for each individual. Needle lengths can range from 0.5 millimeters to 2 millimeters. 

You might feel warmth or a scratching sensation on your face once the Microneedling starts, and some people may still feel discomfort after numbing if the needles are near bony areas, such as your cheekbones. Typically, a Microneedling procedure session can take anywhere from 15 minutes to a few hours, depending on the size of the area that needs treatment and the amount of treatment areas. 

What to expect after your Microneedling appointment:

After your treatment session, you can expect to be able to return to your normal daily activities, there is no downtime. However, your skin may be red, swollen and irritated for up to 5 days, which can be helped by applying ice to the treatment area. There is also a slight chance of bruising or bleeding where the needles entered the skin, which should subside within a couple of days. In the days and weeks after Microneedling, you might notice that your skin has a slight burn or feels tight some patients may also have dry, flaking skin that improves with moisturizer. Lastly, you should stay out of the sun till your skin heals. 

Most people need multiple Microneedling treatment sessions to reach optimal results, usually about 3 weeks to 8 weeks apart. It can take 3­6 months to see the full results. You may find you are in need of a maintenance session after some time has passed, which will be discussed in your consultation.  

Who is Not a Microneedling Candidate?

Microneedling treatments are relatively safe, however, if you have any of the outlined conditions below, this may not be the right treatment option for you. Speak to one of our experienced medical consultants to discuss your concerns, as there may be a treatment option better suited to meet your aesthetic goals. 

  • Blood disorders or on anticoagulants (drugs that prevent blood clots). 
  • Cancer and are receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy. 
  • Frequent skin rashes (contact dermatitis) or cold sores. 
  • Keloidal tendency (your skin forms hard, raised scars). 
  • Moles, freckles, skin tags or other growths that change in size or shape or bleed. 
  • Skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis.

FAQ's Customized DERMAPEN Skincare

Yes, microneedling is generally a safe and effective procedure that can improve the appearance of the skin. It can reduce wrinkles, diminish scarring, and tighten or rejuvenate loose or aging skin.

Healing from microneedling usually takes a mere 24 hours. However, it may take up to two to three days depending on the extent of the treatment. You can are free to return to work or school immediately after treatment and wear makeup 24 hours after your treatment.

You may need between one and six DermaPen microneedling treatments to achieve your desired results. If you’re trying to minimize your pores, you should only expect to need one treatment session. On the other hand, you may need two or three treatment sessions to erase moderate-to-severe wrinkles and folds.

Using ingredients like glycolic acid, retinol and vitamin C too soon after microneedling can irritate your skin and prolong the healing process. For this reason, it is best to wait two to three days after a microneedling session to start using products with these ingredients again.

As far as washing your face after microneedling goes, you should only use lukewarm water for the first 48 hours. On days two and three, it’s safe to cleanse with a gentle, non-exfoliating face wash.

One week following treatment: Most of our patients will notice improvements in their skin just one short week after treatment. Initial results usually include improved skin tone, a reduction in acne visibility, and improved skin texture.

Avoid IPL/Laser procedures, unprotected sun exposure, or sunburn for at least 2 weeks prior to your procedure. No waxing, depilatory creams, or electrolysis to the area being treated for 5-7 days prior. Do not shave the day of the procedure to avoid skin irritation.

For at least 2 hours post treatment, do NOT use any Alpha Hydroxy Acids, Beta Hydroxy Acid, Retinol (Vitamin A), Vitamin C (in a low pH formula) or anything perceived as ‘active’ skincare. Avoid intentional and direct sunlight for 24 hours. No tanning beds. Do not go swimming for at least 24 hours post-‐treatment.
