Demei Microneedle - Improves pores, acne scars, and rough skin texture
Visible pores, uneven acne scars, and a rough, rough texture can persist even with diligent skincare. This is because these problems are sometimes not just due to surface dryness or dead skin buildup, but are related to the skin's structure and repair process.
Dermapen 4 is a microneedling treatment that uses extremely fine needles to quickly and vertically penetrate and exit the skin, creating tiny and regular micro-invasive channels. Through the skin's natural repair response, it promotes collagen renewal and restructuring, gradually improving problems such as acne scars, enlarged pores, rough skin texture, and fine lines.
Unlike skincare treatments that focus solely on moisturizing or surface metabolism, the Derma Microneedling Pen emphasizes the improvement of skin texture and structure. During treatment, the depth of the microneedles can be adjusted according to different areas and skin conditions, making the treatment more tailored to each individual's actual needs.
What is the Dermapen 4 microneedle pen?
Dermapen 4 is a skin treatment using automated microneedling technology. The treatment probe is equipped with tiny microneedles that quickly and vertically penetrate the skin, creating many micro-channels that are not easily visible to the naked eye.
These minute stimuli trigger the skin's natural repair mechanisms, which, along with subsequent tissue repair and collagen remodeling, gradually improve the skin's surface texture, roughness, and overall appearance.
Microneedling treatment is not about "the deeper the needle goes, the better the results." The skin thickness varies in different areas of the face. For example, the forehead, around the nose, cheeks, or areas with more noticeable acne scars may require different treatment depths and techniques. Therefore, the actual treatment plan still needs to be assessed and tailored to each individual's skin condition.
The principle of Demei microneedle treatment
Our skin has the ability to repair itself after being moderately stimulated. The Demei microneedle pen utilizes this physiological mechanism to provide regular, micro-invasive stimulation to the skin at a controllable treatment depth.
Treatment can be roughly divided into three stages:
Phase 1 | Establishing Microchannels
Microneedles quickly and vertically penetrate the skin, creating tiny micro-invasive channels in the treatment area and triggering the skin's subsequent repair response.
Phase Two | Activating the Repair Mechanism
The skin begins its natural repair process, with increased cellular activity related to tissue repair and promotion of collagen and elastin fiber renewal.
Phase 3 | Collagen Remodeling
Changes in collagen tissue do not occur immediately after the treatment, but rather gradually occur with subsequent repair. With proper treatment planning, skin texture, unevenness, and overall smoothness can be gradually improved.
Therefore, the Derma Microneedle Pen does not "scrape away and start over" the skin surface, but rather uses precise micro-invasive stimulation to allow the skin to initiate its own repair process.
4 Key Features of the Demei Microneedle Pen
1. Vertical needle insertion reduces unnecessary surface pulling.
The Dermapen 4 uses a vertical needle insertion method, allowing the microneedles to quickly move up and down on the skin. Compared to traditional roller microneedles that need to be rolled back and forth on the skin surface, vertical needle insertion allows for more precise application to the treatment area.
2. 16-needle microneedle design
The Dermapen 4 uses a 16-needle probe that can create up to 1,920 micro-invasive channels per second, allowing for treatment through rapid and regular microneedle stimulation.
3. Treatment depth can be adjusted.
Everyone's skin thickness, acne scar depth, and treatment needs are different. Even on the same face, the required treatment depth may vary in different areas.
The Dermapen 4 allows you to adjust the microneedling depth depending on the treatment area and skin condition. For example, the same settings may not be used for cheeks with prominent acne scars and for thinner areas like the forehead and around the eyes.
4. Without relying on additional thermal energy.
The Demei microneedle pen works primarily through the physical stimulation of microneedles, without requiring additional heat energy such as radio waves to produce therapeutic effects.
Therefore, although both the Derma Microneedling Pen and Microneedling Radiofrequency use microneedles to penetrate the skin, their treatment principles are different, and they are suitable for different skin conditions and have different treatment goals.
What problems can the Demei Microneedle Pen improve?
The Demae microneedling pen primarily focuses on improving skin texture and quality, and common treatment needs include:
pitted acne scars
If acne inflammation damages the dermis, it can leave varying degrees of pitting. Microneedling can gradually improve the uneven texture of the skin by stimulating skin repair and collagen regeneration. However, acne scars come in different types and depths. Deeper ice pick, boxcar, or rolling scars require different treatments, and in some cases, they may need to be combined with other scar treatments.
Large pores
When the skin around pores loses its support, or when it's accompanied by oiliness, acne scars, and rough texture, pores tend to appear more noticeable. Microneedling stimulates skin renewal, gradually improving overall texture and making the skin look smoother.
Rough, uneven skin texture
If your skin appears grainy, uneven, or has noticeable texture when viewed up close, the Derma Microneedle can improve it by renewing your skin texture.
Fine lines
As collagen is lost, fine lines may gradually appear on the skin. Microneedling treatments can improve some of these fine lines caused by skin texture and aging by promoting collagen renewal and restructuring.
Uneven skin tone
As skin renews and improves texture, some uneven skin tone and dullness may also improve. However, if the main problem is deep pigmentation spots or specific pigmentation disorders, a doctor will still need to determine whether laser or other treatments are appropriate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Demei Microneedling Pen effective after just one treatment?
A: After microneedling stimulation, the skin needs time to repair and rebuild collagen, so not all changes are completed immediately after the treatment.
The number of treatments required will differ depending on whether you only want to improve mild roughness or treat more noticeable pitted acne scars. The doctor will arrange subsequent treatments based on the severity of the problem and the patient's response to initial treatment.

Q: How often should I get the Deme Microneedling treatment?
A: Treatment intervals need to allow the skin sufficient time to repair, so intensive self-treatment is not recommended. The actual interval will be affected by the depth of treatment, the purpose of treatment, and individual recovery progress, and should be arranged by a doctor according to the skin condition.
Q: How long does it take for the redness to subside after microneedling?
A: Temporary redness, heat, or dryness may occur after treatment. The recovery speed varies depending on the depth of treatment and individual skin condition. The deeper the treatment is set, the longer the recovery time usually needs to be.
Q: Can the Demei microneedle pen treat acne scars?
A: Microneedling is one of the treatment options for improving pitted acne scars, but acne scars are not a single type.
Different types and depths of pitted acne scars may require different treatments. Some people are suitable for microneedling, while others may need to combine it with other acne scar treatments. Therefore, it is recommended to determine the type of acne scar before developing a treatment plan.

Q: Can I get microneedling if I have acne?
A: It depends on the current state of the acne. If the treatment area has a lot of red, swollen, pustular, or obviously inflamed pimples, the inflammation is usually controlled first, rather than proceeding directly with microneedling.
If the acne has stabilized and the main remaining issues are acne scars, enlarged pores, and skin texture, then a doctor can assess the suitability of microneedling treatment.

Q: Which is better, the Demei microneedling pen or the microneedling radiofrequency device?
A: The Demei microneedle pen mainly works through...Minimally invasive stimulation and skin repair mechanismsImproves skin texture.
Microneedle radio waves are addedRadio wave heat energyIn addition to microneedle stimulation, it also generates a thermal effect at the designated skin layers.
If your primary concerns are acne scars, roughness, and skin texture, microneedling treatment can be evaluated. If you also have noticeable pores, acne scars, and a need for firming, your doctor may assess microneedling radiofrequency treatment based on your skin condition. Neither treatment is inherently superior; the choice ultimately depends on your skin concerns and desired results.

Q: Does the deeper the needle pen is inserted, the better the treatment effect?
A: The Dermamicroneedling technique is not about injecting as deep as possible; finding the right treatment settings for you is more important!
While microneedling may seem like simply stimulating the skin with fine needles, the real factors influencing the treatment plan include...Acne scar type, skin thickness, treatment location, microneedling depth, and skin repair ability。
While some people also have large pores, others may also have acne scars, while others may have them related to oiliness, aging, or skin support. Even among acne scars, there may be differences in depth and shape.
Therefore, before undergoing a microneedling treatment, one should first clarify the problems that one hopes to improve, and then plan a suitable treatment method according to the skin condition, rather than simply pursuing a deeper and stronger treatment setting.

Q: Is there a recovery period after the Demei microneedling procedure?
A: Microneedling treatment creates tiny wounds on the skin, so temporary redness after the procedure is a common reaction. Some people may also experience mild heat, tightness, dryness, or peeling.
The actual degree of recovery depends on the depth and extent of treatment, as well as individual skin conditions. If the treatment is set to be deeper, the time for redness and dryness may also be relatively longer.
The most important thing during the post-operative period is not to use a large number of functional skincare products, but to allow the skin to stabilize and repair itself. Therefore, it is recommended to take good care of your skin.Gentle cleansing, moisturizing and sun protectionAnd temporarily avoid irritating products such as acids, exfoliants, and whitening products.
