I'm having dermapen treatment. What type of cream or serum can I use for aftercare? (Photo)

After microneedling or dermapen treatment, I would advise patients to use Melarase creams to help reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

HA is rather expensive, and simple emollients are cheap. The fact that you are having Dermapen is the difference....not the creams after. The depth and passes will be determined by the Specialist you are seeing. I would personally stretch the skin, and use the Professional Dermapen, followed by Retinol prescription 9 days later. This is an entry level treatment. Most Specialist would treat your striae or stretch marks with CO2 Fractional laser. This works better than Dermapen because it gives CONTROLLED heating of the dermis and remodels scars more efficiently. As a suggestion, you should see a Specialist that offers a variety of treatments.
