Dermapen Treatments™ are a popular, non-invasive, and effective option for those with uneven skin tone, age spots and thinning, sagging skin, caused by environmental factors or simply as part of the skin's ageing process.
Ageing & Sun-Damaged Skin Treatment
Condition Overview
By far, sun exposure has the biggest extrinsic impact on skin ageing. Photoaging is the technical name for damage caused by UV rays. Signs of photoageing include uneven skin tone, dullness or loss of skin elasticity, particularly for skin that's regularly exposed to the elements.
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 the skin's natural collagen production, boosting elasticity and repairing flaws. The potent anti-ageing and repairing actives in our Dp Dermaceuticals™ Meso-Glides™ are infused directly into the skin for enhanced results.
Symptoms
UV rays affect the skin differently depending on the layer they penetrate. UVB rays, which are shorter, primarily impact the top layer of the skin, the epidermis, causing it to thin over time. UVA rays, being longer, reach the dermis, where they damage collagen and elastin, leading to skin aging. Blood vessels in this deeper layer can also be harmed by UVA exposure. Pigmentation issues, like age spots or liver spots, often appear on the face, hands, and arms due to sun exposure.
Additionally, wrinkles or sagging skin can develop prematurely from UV damage. Dry, itchy skin becomes more common with age as UVB rays contribute to skin thinning.
Ageing/ Sun-damaged Skin Dermapen Treatments™
Dermapen Treatments are a proven way of promoting more collagen and elastin in the skin for up to 2 years. The result is visibly plumper, smoother skin with fewer lines, wrinkles, or pigmentation. It works by creating flawless micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulates the repair function and boosts collagen.
What to expect:
The Dermapen 4™ device is capable of creating an impressive 1,920 micro-channels a second in the skin with virtually no pain, thanks to our sophisticated, ground-breaking technology. The process ignites natural collagen and elastin production from within repairing the surface layers to result in healthier-looking skin.
Clinical procedures can be performed anywhere on the body. And are highly effective on tell-tale areas such as the hands or décolleté, which can be prone to sun-damage and the signs of ageing, for a uniformly radiant appearance.
There are many different ways that sun damage can present. Our Authorised Treatment Providers are equipped with proven DermapenWorld Protocols to tailor a solution specifically to patients’ skin. Part of these Protocols is to advise patients about an at-home regime using Dp Dermaceuticals for long-lasting results.
Dermapen HOME™ device can be used safely at home in between clinical procedures to see faster progress for the age- or sun-damaged skin. And always, always protect the skin from further damage by covering up with the revolutionary COVER RECOVER™ SPF30 from Dp Dermaceuticals.

MicroneedlingWhat is the Best Treatment for Sun-damaged Skin?
The sunshine brings warmth and Vitamin D, but it also packs a punch with harmful UV rays. These rays—UVA and UVB—cause trouble for our skin. They are well known for their cancer risk, but did you know UV rays are also responsible for our skin looking ...older than our years?
While wearing good quality sunscreen is a must, Dermapen Treatments are also a non-invasive way to improve the visible damage caused by the sun.
What is Photoageing?
Photoageing is the term for visible skin damage caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. In a nutshell, UV rays accelerate the aging process and make you look older. Common symptoms of sun-damaged skin include wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven pigmentation, giving your skin a prematurely aged appearance.
How Does a Dermapen Treatment for Sun-damage Help?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that stimulates collagen production by creating tiny, controlled injuries on the skin’s surface using sterilised needles. The Dermapen 4™ and Dermapen HOME™ are superior, safe microneedling devices that get impressive results. Here’s how Dermapen Treatments for Sun-damage helps:
1. Collagen Boost: Collagen is essential for maintaining youthful, firm, and elastic skin. Microneedling triggers the skin’s healing response, leading to increased collagen production.
2. Skin Texture Improvement: By promoting collagen synthesis, microneedling smooths and firms the skin. It’s effective for minimising wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven texture.
3. Hyperpigmentation: Dark spots caused by sun damage or other factors may fade with microneedling. Dermapen Treatments help even out skin tone.
4. Minimal Downtime: Microneedling is safe and minimally invasive, with little to no downtime. You might experience minor redness and irritation for a few days after the procedure.
What products are the most effective?
The serum used during microneedling plays a crucial role in enhancing the Dermapen Treatment’s effectiveness. Here’s why:
1. Boosting Absorption: Microneedling creates tiny channels in the skin, allowing the serum to penetrate deeper. The right serum can deliver active ingredients (like hyaluronic acid, growth factors, or peptides) directly to the target areas, maximising their impact.
2. Customisation: Different serums address specific concerns. For example:
* Hyaluronic Acid: Hydrates and plumps the skin.
* Vitamin C: Brightens pigmentation and fights free radicals.
3. Post-procedure Healing: The correct serum soothes and accelerates healing after microneedling. It reduces redness, inflammation, and discomfort.
4. Collagen Synthesis: Some serums contain ingredients that further boost collagen synthesis, complementing microneedling’s effects.
However, not all serums are safe to be infused into your skin. The ground-breaking Meso-Glide (MG) serums are used by Authorised Treatment Providers to help the Dermapen 4 device glide across the skin while needling in targeted active ingredients for the very best results. Exclusively developed for professionals, MG-Collection™ represents a breakthrough in skin technology.
A twice-daily personalised routine of Dp Dermaceuticals together with Dp Dermaceuticals L.E.D. can help you get even more noticeable results faster.
