This condition can affect all skin types, conditions and colours, and both sexes. Stretch marks may appear as red or purple lines that fade to a white / silver colour. As stretch marks are a condition of the dermis.
We Recommend
Many Practitioners and Patients have claimed that Dermapen Treatments have been far more effective for the treatment of Stretch Marks than other traditional methods (ie; Laser or superficial creams). The Dermapen process encourages the production and distribution of new collagen that will progressively remodel the stretch mark scar whilst greatly reducing its appearance.

\nABOUT AMWC: Over the last 14 years AMWC has played a key role in underpinning the scientific understanding of global anti-aging management.\n This mission is still very important today and the congress program addresses how to achieve effective aging prevention by comprehensively examining\n approaches in aesthetics (dermatology and surgery) for external appearance while applying anti-aging medicine for internal wellbeing.
\nTo meet these goals, AMWC 2016 will showcase cutting edge presentations by some of the most sought after experts in the fields of Aesthetic Dermatology,\n Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery and multidisciplinary Preventive & Anti-Aging Medicine.
\nThe main theme of AMWC 2016 will be the role and importance of PREVENTION in aesthetic/anti-aging practice. Prevention is an active process,\n which makes the theme of the congress challenging and very relevant. Throughout the conference, the AMWC experts will discuss the following questions:\n The evolving role of prevention in health care and wellbeing of your patients - The impact of prevention on slowing the aging process and putting off\n aesthetic and surgical interventions – Striking the right balance between prevention and treatment
\nEvery year, this highly awaited event attracts about 10 000 participants coming from more than 120 countries. Over 300 leading international companies, showcasing throughout the 4-floor exhibition area,\n will be there to help you discover their latest products, technologies and services.

Skin needling can treat any skin type – and an array of skin issues. Inskin Cosmedics CEO and founder, Marie Enna-Cocciolone, talks Dermapen3™, and everything we need to know about this latest technology in skin needling.\n
\nInskin Cosmedics has been offering skin needling for almost eight years, and with the announcement that\n the company has been appointed the exclusive Australian distributor for DermapenWorld, Inskin Cosmedics CEO and founder Marie Enna-Cocciolone is well\n placed to talk about the technology. We talk about the latest version of this leading skin pen – and why it could be just the technology for your salon\n business.

\n Dermapen3 is the latest release in skin needling\n technology.
\nWhy did Inskin Cosmetics decide to take on Dermapen? \n
\n“Our Skin-Inject and DNC rollers have been super effective and successful,” says Marie Enna-Cocciolone, CEO and founder of Inskin Cosmedics.\n “Technology notoriously changes quickly and people look for easier, faster and just as effective advances – skin needling is no exception. We had been\n searching for a pen for almost three years and Dermapen was our benchmark; never had we imagined we would have the honour of working with the original\n and global leader itself. We love the fact that Dermapen3 is where we are starting from. We have missed the trials and errors of the first pen, we\n have benefited from the refining of the Dermapen2 model and we get to start off with the absolute best.”
\nWhat is exciting about this newest version? \n
\n“As an automated skin needling device, Dermapen is easy to use and the results are simply outstanding,” says Enna-Cocciolone. “The oscillating stamp-like\n pen harmoniously vibrates and glides over the skin providing the most efficient control, safety and comfort possible, whilst delivering treatment in\n the shortest time frame with no downtime for your patients. Dermapen with its unique needle tip and strong motor is capable of creating approximately\n 1300 micro channels per second into the skin. “The concept is made even better with ‘DP Dermaceuticals’ a specially formulated skin care range with\n just the right level of actives to support skin rejuvenation and wound healing.”
\nWhat issues can skin needling correct? \n
\n“Used by practitioners in over 50 countries Dermapen effectively treats multiple skin conditions including… ageing, wrinkles, various\n types of scars, acne, dilated pores, stretch-marks, hyper and hypo pigmentation, rosacea, telangiectasia, milia, keratosis pilaris and alopecia,” says\n ays Enna-Cocciolone. “It also stimulates angiogenesis [the formation of new blood vessels.]
\nHow painful is skin needling? \n
\n“The needle depth is adjustable according to the skin condition you are treating with fully adjustable oscillation speed,” says Enna-Cocciolone. “Because\n of this speed and comfort, patients can enjoy their Dermapen treatment sans topical anaesthetic.”
\n![\"DP](\"//cdn3.professionalbeauty.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Dermaceuticals.jpg\")
\n DP Dermaceuticals’ is a specially formulated skin care range with just the right level of actives to support “skin rejuvenation and wound healing”.
\nWhat technology has gone into Dermapen3?\n
\n“Dermapen3 is the gold standard of C.I.T/ Fractional Rejuvenation, which uses an automated needling system,” says Enna-Cocciolone. “Over\n the years the device has been taken through its paces to provide what we know today as a benchmark device.”
\nThis device automated, what does that mean for salons? \n
\n“The vertical needle entry has no needle bend risk and is automated to allow for a quick and effective way of treating small or curved\n skin areas. The treatment is non thermolytic [doesn’t break down molecules] and non-ablative, which eliminates the risk of heat and other injuries,”\n says Enna-Cocciolone. “The electrically charged automation, powered with a high duty cycle motor with AOVN (Automated Oscillating Vertical Needle)\n Technology, reduces epidermal damage, discomfort and procedural downtime.”
\nIs it an easy piece of technology for salons to incorporate into their treatment menu? \n
\n“Incredibly easy, but that’s not to say it doesn’t require a dedicated training day to ensure a full theory and practical understanding,”\n says Enna-Cocciolone. “Both the technology and device are easy to learn and apply, the conditions they treat extensive and non-invasive making Dermapen\n an effective corrective treatment choice for almost every skin condition. Given that more and more of our partners are enjoying treatments without\n the need for an anaesthetic cream and considering the speed of the treatment the ROI is also far better than most modalities.”
\nDo you offer education to your clients? \n
\n“Not only do we offer it, we insist on it,” says Enna-Cocciolone. “We won’t sell any of our devices/modalities/brands\n without training. Our aim is to ensure our partner’s investment is effective, their treatment plans and solutions upgraded and that their customers\n keep coming back. The Dermapen treatment, whilst easy, has a very serious side and one we ensure it is taught thoroughly.”

\nWith media blitz focusing on Hollywood celebrities’ perfect looks and appearance, the ordinary people are pushing for ways and means to achieve youthful\n appearance, radiant skin and stress-free looks. More men and women, young and old are into celebrity-inspired skin care rituals and practices, as they\n seriously wait for the advertised results.
\nMany skin clinic businesses benefit from such media blitz about youthful skin and appearance. When celebrities endorse certain products\n or procedures, people search forlocal skin clinic that offers the same\n procedure or service. And if you are in this business, you should know that there are other easy ways to get more clients or customers for your skin\n clinic business. Check the list below:

Aesthetic patients today won’t tolerate being treated like second class citizens. They will give their disposable income\n to the practice that makes them feel special.
\nRemember there is always someone behind you who is looking at taking your place in the market.
\nCreating a successful aesthetic practice in times of economic uncertainty is a daunting challenge. Emphasising the patient’s experience, effectively using\n social media and the web, and an ego-devoid introspective analysis of the flaws of your practice are essential for any successful aesthetic practitioner\n to grow and be prosperous despite any shortfalls in the economy.
\nThe core principles in medicine and business can, at times, be contradictory. However, the essential fundamentals of medicine are consistent with the best\n strategies in business. For example: doing the right thing, selflessness, and empathy – bode well in business also. However business is a\n competitive world and the success of any company is mainly measured in financial statements. We all know that cosmetic medicine is not a general medical\n business; aesthetic practitioners are selling an expensive luxury, not a health necessity. However, it is important to remember that aesthetic medicine\n is still, first and foremost, medicine, and beyond any other profession or business, practitioners have an enormous responsibility to always do what\n is in the best interest of their patient rather than themselves. No other profession is granted such responsibility or high standards. Success should be measured in the patients’ well-being and not just the bottom line.
\nAesthetic practitioners have a responsibility to treat the patient first using the most responsible and most appropriate treatments while keeping in mind\n the luxuries of retail to keep consumer driven patients happy and to remain profitable. So how can practitioners practice this fine balance in a down\n economy and still thrive?
\nMost importantly, the ‘product’ has to be good. Regardless of the economy, only a business providing a good product will succeed in the long term. If the\n product is less than promised, the consumer may be fooled for a limited period of time by creative and expensive advertising, but eventually, the individual\n will catch on to the inferiority and the business will fail. In aesthetic medicine, the practitioner and staff are the product!
\nThat means any service offered by the practice or persons who represent the practitioner must be aligned with the highest standards of quality. Their competency\n will be perceived as a reflection of the practitioner. Additionally, the practitioner will have to be well versed in the medicinal products offered\n and continue to perfect his or her technical skills.
\nIf the product (practitioner) is no good, word spreads fast. This is true in any economy, but with the limited opportunities and increased competition,\n a practice cannot tolerate even a minority of disappointed patients. For an established doctor seeing a decline in business, now is the time to act\n fast and implement measures to ensure the practice thrives in the current downturn. Those seeing a reduction in business need to re-evaluate their\n current policies with an ego-devoid introspection and attention to the following formula so they continue to grow and prosper, as your competitors\n wonder what happened.
\nThe following success formula will address all of the above and, if implemented, will keep your phones ringing, your patients buying and referrals coming\n to you. The point is to first check your mind-set. Are you buying into media pessimism? If you are, you are not going to be open to opportunities and\n possibilities so fix that first.

Acne scarring occurs because depressions or pits in the skin have formed abnormally from the inflamed acne spot.
\nMicro needling technology uses either a mechanical device that incorporates surgical steel micro-needles in a wheel, which is used to roll over\n the surface of the skin in a patterned formation or a mechanical pen-like motorized devise which punctures and stamps the skin by needles moving\n in and out at a very fast rate of 1000 punctures per second.
\nMicroneedling is highly effective repairing abnormal healing as the micro needles penetrate from between 0.25mm -2.5mm below the skins surface.\n This creates microscopic channels deep into the dermis of the skin. Micro injury targets the area where the dermal inflammation has occurred\n and breaks-up fibrous tissue to fill-in where there has been a loss at the site of the acne lesion.
\nIn our article How To Remove Back Acne Scars we described eight\n of the latest treatment methods for treating acne scars: Dermabrasion, Laser Skin Resurfacing, Acne Chemical Peels, Acne Scar Surgery, Collagen\n Injections, Fat Transfer and Microdermabrasion.
\nWe discovered that most of these treatment methods involved the removal of layers of skin to allow healthier skin cells to surface faster. Several\n treatments caused coagulation of tissue and the fast-tracking of collagen and elastin production to quickly move through the dermal layers\n to the epidermis which in turn plumps-out skin where indentations from scars have occurred thereby revealing smoother skin at the surface.
\nLike wrinkles, most acne scars are visible because they are lower or deeper than surrounding skin. Microneedling will even out the complexion and\n improve the appearance of scars.
\nOne of the main benefits is that skin tightens and improves long after the treatment itself. Micro needling promotes inner healing of the dermis\n to tighten and smooth the skin as collagen begins to lay down in a more regular manner through the layers of the skin to the upper layers where\n smoother more regular.
\nMany men and women with acne scarring are enjoying the benefits of significant reduction of scar depth even after a single treatment and although\n results vary from person to person and it is likely that you’ll have to undergo several treatments to get the appearance that you are looking\n for.
\nThe team at SkinHealthShop have a solution and provide two options of Micro needling home hand held devices that are FDA cleared and safe enough\n for you to conduct your own treatments in the privacy of your own home.
\nYou can choose from: Scientia Derma Roller – a light-weight hand held skin\n roller with 192 surgical steel micro-needles which part the pores of the top layer of the skin without causing skin damage. Note: Different\n rollers are required with different needle lengths to be able to treat a wide range of conditions.
\nOr
\nScientia Derma Stamp – a light-weight hand held needling devise with adjustable\n needle dial for a multi-purpose use. Derma Stamp is the home hand held needling devise equivalent to the Professional only use – Derma Pen.
\nSo now you can repair your acne scarred or surgery scarred skin when you purchase your own home microneedling for acne scars device and restore\n your skin so that it becomes more elastic, thicker, tighter, smooth and acne scar free.
