Whether caused by acne, surgery or injury, scars can leave you feeling self-conscious about how your skin looks. Dermapen Treatments™ can visibly reduce the appearance of scars.
Scarring Dermapen Treatment
Condition Overview
Scars are caused by damage to the second layer of skin—the dermis. Scars can be frustrating additions to your face and other parts of your body, especially if they're located in a highly visible area. Whatever the size, Dermapen Treatments can help.
Dermapen Treatments involve reducing bulky scar tissue with targeted microneedling, activating regulated collagen to either flatten or plump the scarred region. Specialty Dp Dermaceuticals™ skincare products, such as SSSCAR™, EXO-SKIN SERUM™ and EXO-SKIN MOISTURISER™, support the body's natural healing process and minimise redness or discolouration. Enjoy noticeably smoother and more even-toned skin.
Symptoms
When the skin is injured, it initiates a natural wound repair process, often resulting in scar formation. Scar tissue, which replaces normal skin, can appear indented, raised, or extend beyond the original wound. The appearance and type of scars vary.
Atrophic scars, like ice-pick scars, are narrow and deep, while box-car scars are sunken with flat bottoms. Rolling scars create a wave-like texture without clear indentations. Contracture scars, common in burns, may be both raised and indented, often restricting movement. Hypertrophic scars are raised but remain within the wound's boundary, while keloid scars continue to grow beyond the original injury. Stretch marks, or striae, are thin lines caused by skin stretching or contracting rapidly.
Dermapen Treatments are highly effective at reducing the appearance of mild to severe scars, including hypertrophic, keloid, contracture, and burn scars, helping to restore a smoother, more even skin texture.
Scarring Dermapen Treatments™
Dermapen Treatments for scars are so popular due to the speed, minimal downtime, and safety of the procedure. When microneedling scars, results can be further enhanced with ÜBER MD Peel and topical application of SSSCAR™.
What to expect:
Dermapen 4™ is the only microneedling pen with a dedicated Scar Treatment Setting and Protocols for improving the appearance of deep, indented scars; including surgical, burn contracture, striae (stretch marks) and acne scars.
Not only can the needles penetrate up to 3mm, but the pen automatically calibrates the motor speed, pressure and penetration for targeted precision. There’s no dragging or pulling of the skin. And the needles are the highest quality and incredibly slender for increased comfort.
A professional consultation is necessary to determine how many procedures and at what intervals they should be performed. A combination of therapy options may be suggested. Your microneedling results are enhanced by the infusion of targeted Dp Dermaceuticals™ products during and immediately after the procedure.
For keloids or atrophic scarring, using SSSCAR scar cream in combination with Dermapen microneedling procedures allows the skin to normalise the collagen synthesis cycle.

MicroneedlingSkin Scarring Microneedling - Is it Worth It?
Scarring refers to the formation or appearance of a scar or multiple scars on the skin or other bodily tissue after a wound has healed. When our skin experiences injury, the biological process of wound repair leads to the development of fibrous tissue, w...hich replaces the normal skin. Scars can vary in appearance and may be indented (atrophic), thick and raised (hypertrophic), or extend beyond the original injury (keloid).
The Impact of Skin Scarring
Skin scarring can significantly impact your appearance, depending on factors such as the size, location, and type of scar. Here are some common ways it may affect how you look:
Texture Changes: Scars often have a different texture than the surrounding skin. They can be raised (hypertrophic), flat, or indented (atrophic). The texture can make the scar more noticeable.
Colour Variation: Scars may appear lighter or darker than your natural skin tone. This colour difference can be especially noticeable in areas with lighter or darker skin.
Visibility: Scars on visible areas like the face, neck, or arms can draw attention. Makeup or clothing can help conceal them, but some scars remain noticeable.
Emotional Impact: Beyond physical appearance, scars can affect your self-esteem and emotional well-being. Coping with visible scars can be challenging.
Everyone’s healing process is unique, and some scars fade over time. If you’re concerned about a scar, consult your Authorised Treatment Provider for personalised advice about skin scarring microneedling. Dermapen 4 has a specialty Scar Treatment Setting that can be used to get impressive results.
What Is Skin Scarring Microneedling?
Dermapen Treatments for scars can significantly improve the appearance of scars through several mechanisms:
Collagen Remodeling: Dermapen creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production. As collagen remodels, scars become less noticeable and smoother.
Scar Tissue Breakdown: The microneedling process helps break down scar tissue, leading to a more even skin texture.
Topical Product Absorption: Dermapen channels allow better absorption of scar-reducing creams or serums, maximising their effectiveness.
