How does micro-needling work?
The dermafix pen is passed over the area to be treated, inserting tiny sterile needles into the skin. This can feel uncomfortable but not usually painful. The tiny punctures inflicted from the needles create a wound healing response and renew the cells. As your skin repairs, the production of collagen and elastin is triggered to rejuvenate the skin.
