When considering the aging process, it's essential to understand that facial aging involves three key components: Deterioration of skin, Deflation of facial volume, and Descending facial tissues. Effective facial rejuvenation targets one or more of these "3 D's" to restore a youthful, refreshed appearance.
The Dermapen offers an innovative and effective solution for the deterioration of the facial skin. This advanced microneedling device, available at Mitchell Plastic Surgery under the care of Dr. Ryan Mitchell, DO, FAOCO, FAACS, addresses the cumulative effects of sun exposure, genetics, and lifestyle choices that contribute to aging skin. As a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with over 20 years of experience, Dr. Mitchell is recognized for his expertise in cosmetic treatments, ensuring you receive safe, professional care. Dermapen treatments target common signs of skin deterioration, including fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, mottled pigmentation, and dullness, helping to rejuvenate your skin with noticeable results.
What Is Dermapen?
Dermapen is a state-of-the-art, vertically automated, fractionated microneedling device that addresses the visible signs of aging, such as:
- Fine lines and wrinkles.
- Large pores.
- Stretch marks and scars.
- Uneven pigmentation and dullness.
The treatment creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin's surface using 11 closely grouped needles. The microchannels created by the treatment stimulate the body’s innate healing response, driving collagen and elastin regeneration through the release of growth factors. The result? A smoother, firmer, and more youthful complexion.
This process is similar to ablative laser treatments but with several advantages:
- Suitable for all skin types, including darker skin tones.
- Minimal downtime—most clients experience redness for about 24 hours.
- Effective results are comparable to chemical peels or laser treatments without the associated risks.
How Dermapen Rejuvenates Skin
Sun exposure, genetic predisposition, and lifestyle influences accelerate skin deterioration, causing visible signs such as fine lines, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, and enlarged pores. Dermapen harnesses the body's innate ability to heal itself, remodeling skin from within by:
- Stimulating collagen and elastin production.
- Enhancing the skin's vascular matrix for improved circulation.
- Smoothing the skin and enhancing its firmness and vibrancy.
This natural process makes the skin appear healthier, more radiant, and noticeably rejuvenated.
What to Expect During a Dermapen Treatment
At Mitchell Plastic Surgery in Henderson and Las Vegas, your comfort and results are our top priorities. Here's what you can expect:
- Preparation: Your skin is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic cream is applied to ensure comfort.
- Microneedling Process: The Dermapen device gently glides over your skin, delivering micro-injuries while infusing a biohydra serum to hydrate and soothe.
- Post-Treatment Care: A case-specific serum is applied to target individual skin concerns.
The entire procedure for the face takes about 60 minutes and is well tolerated, with minimal discomfort. Post-treatment, your skin will be pink for about 24 hours, during which time makeup should be avoided.
4-6 treatments spaced four weeks apart are typically recommended for optimal results.
