DERMAPEN4™ MICRONEEDLING (COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY)

Dermapen4™ Microneedling is designed to be as comfortable as possible. At Botanica Wellness Spa and Clinic, we use the Dermapen 4™ device, which delivers controlled, precise micro-needles during treatment. This device delivers targeted results with minimal discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as mild and very tolerable, though sensitivity can vary depending on the treatment area and individual skin condition.

Dermapen4™ Microneedling may be suitable if you are looking to:
> Reduce acne scarring or post-acne marks
> Improve skin texture and uneven tone
> Address fine lines and early signs of ageing
> Minimise enlarged pores
> Support skin regeneration and collagen production
> Improve the effectiveness of your skincare routine

Dermapen4™ Microneedling is suitable for all skin types and skin tones. It can be used to address concerns such as acne scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, enlarged pores, stretch marks and uneven skin texture.
Microneedling may not be suitable if your skin is currently inflamed, infected, or experiencing active cystic acne. To ensure safety and optimal results, all clients are required to complete a REVEAL skin consultation and professional skin assessment prior to treatment.

Dermapen4™ Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment with little to no downtime. You may experience redness, mild swelling, warmth or sensitivity immediately after your treatment. These effects typically subside within a few hours and up to two days, depending on your skin and the intensity of the treatment.

Post-treatment care is essential for achieving the best results from microneedling. Your senior skin therapist will provide personalised Dermapen4™ aftercare instructions and a tailored at-home skincare prescription.
General post-care guidelines include:
> Avoid sun exposure and apply recommended SPF regularly
> Avoid makeup for at least 24 hours. If necessary, use non-comedogenic, oil-free products
> Avoid hot showers, baths, saunas and steam rooms for 24 hours
> Avoid intense exercise for 24 hours
> Avoid alcohol for 24 hours
> Use only the recommended skincare products and avoid active ingredients as advised
Following these instructions supports optimal skin healing, collagen stimulation and long-term results.

Most clients achieve the best results with a course of Dermapen4™ Microneedling treatments. While some improvement may be visible after one session, a series of treatments allows collagen and elastin production to build progressively.
Your skin therapist will recommend a personalised treatment plan during your consultation, based on your skin concerns, goals and your skin’s response.

At Botanica Wellness Spa and Clinic, we recommend O Cosmedics skincare. This medical-grade, prescription-only range is designed to support skin repair, enhance collagen induction and maximise the results of Dermapen4™ Microneedling treatments.Your skin therapist will advise on the most suitable products based on your skin goals and post-treatment needs.

You may notice an immediate post-treatment glow, with ongoing improvements in skin texture and firmness developing over the following weeks as collagen production increases. Results continue to improve with a consistent treatment plan and correct home care.

These terms all refer to the same advanced skin needling treatment. Dermapen4™ Microneedling is a form of collagen induction therapy that uses controlled micro-needles to stimulate the skin’s natural healing response, improving texture, tone and overall skin quality.
