Pigmentation

Pigmentation

Dermapen also covers the correction of any unwanted pigmentation on your skin. Whether it's hyperpigmentation, sun spots, age spots, or an overall uneven tone, microneedling is a viable solution to achieve smooth, bright, and even complexion. This procedure requires only mid-penetration to jumpstart the process of reducing any unwanted pigment on your skin. Once the Dermapen has made its punctures, the old layer of skin will start to dry out within a week, and the healing process will begin. For this procedure, it'll take only four to six sessions with a gap of four to eight weeks between each session to see the results.

After your treatment

Things to avoid: Any activity related to extreme heat or sweat. This includes being under the sun for long periods and going to the sauna or gym. Things to do: Keep your skin clean and moisturised. This means no makeup or scrubs or heavy masks for the next 48 hours. Use a gentle cleanser to clean the face, and follow up with moisturiser and sunblock. Also, consult your practitioner for a personalised skincare regimen. Stay hydrated. Drink lots of water for the first few days of treatment as this will quicken the healing process. Cold water could also help in easing the post-procedure swelling. Also, it's nice to be hydrated, in general! Eat clean. As stated above, it's best to stay away from processed foods and instead eat food loaded with vitamins and minerals to aid in the healing process.
