Anyone have experience with these microneedling pens (Rejuvapen and Skinpen)? Which one is better and why? I want to go to an office that provides microneedling with the best pen. I am not considering offices with other pens like Eclipse Micropen or Dermapen but if you think those are better than Rejuvapen or Skinpen, please let me know why. Thanks!
Answer: Rejuvapen vs. SkinPen Thank you for your question about micronpen treatments. Microneedling is a great method to treat a myriad of things with little downtime. It generally takes several treatments to see improvements in fine lines or acne scarring. The addition of growth factors will often amplify the result. In addition, adding PRP (platelet rich plasma) can improve the results even more. This is the procedure of drawing your own blood, spinning it down to extract the PRP, and needling it into the skin. As for the device used....Rejuvapen vs. Eclipse pen....is probably not going to impact your results. Depth of needling and the amount of needles on the head of the pen are factors that can make an impact, in addition to the growth factor/PRP. To be sure, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Microneedling results--Add prp and lasers Each Doctor will have their preferred microneedling device. With microneedling, I always combine with prp and lasers to have a more robust outcome. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Why to Choose the SkinPen I highly recommend the SkinPen simply because it is the first and only FDA approved microneedling device on the market. Its innovative technology prevents cross contamination making this device very safe to use. I suggest you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon to see if you are a good candidate for this procedure.

Answer: Rejuvapen vs. SkinPen Hello, I have used all 4 of the microneedling devices. I feel that I have had better results with the Revapen. I also think that it depends on the experience that the Physician or Nurse doing the treatment also helps. I would consult with all offices and see their before and after photos. Best wishes to you,

Answer: Microneedling Pens, Rejuvapen, Dermapen, Skipen Micro-needling motorized devices are basically the same. Variables include the number of needles per head piece, the depth of needling and the speed setting. Adding platelet rich plasma to the skin prior to the procedure should improve results. Several sessions (usually more than two) are required to produce noticeable results albeit subtle. Different degrees of acne scarring require more aggressive treatments which may include but are not limited to resurfacing LASER, radio-frequency treatments, fat, Bellafill, Sculptra injections and the gold standard fo patients who are willing to undergo several days of redness (Dermabrasion or Phenol peel). More than one treatment modality is typically required to obtain significant improvement in acne scarring. Please consult in person with an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon prior to making treatment decisions.
