Can sebaceous hyperplasia be treated with a Dermapen?

Microneedling can be used with improvement of sebaceous hyperplasia.  A much better response is seen, however, if heat, such as radiofrequency  is combined with the microneedling.  We use radiofrequency delivered through microneedling to treat sebaceous hyperplasia.  In addition, fractionated erbium laser treatment is another option that works well.

The answer is yes. Sebaceous hyperplasia responds to microneedling. In addition, in our practice we use laser resurfacing to improve outcomes.Dr Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member

Consult a Specialist Dermatologist who performs lasers and procedural dermatology. Can one use a Dermapen? Yes... however using a tiny 2mm spot on either an erbium or CO2 laser, or better still 1.2-1.4 watts on a needle tip hyfrecator is much better.Additionally using these devices are partially covered under Medicare!
