What is the best professional microneedling pen on the market right now?

Question

I recently started researching micro needling to help improve the appearance of stretch marks on my breasts after some recent weight loss. However, as I am visiting different medical spas each one has a different micro needling pen they use. Is there one pen in particular that's more superior/advanced than others? How do I know which one will work best for me? The three different pens that I've heard of so far is the Dermapen, SkinStylus and the SkinPen II.

Yes, each Doctor will have their preferred device. Keep in mind, a combination approach gives the most improvement to stretch marks. I recommend a combination of microneedling/prp, lasers (Erbium/Fraxel Laser, Excel V, Pulsed Dye Laser) or radiofrequency devices. Stretch marks can't be cured and it will take a series of treatments lifelong. I recommend you see an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for your question.  Everyone wants to know what's the best _______?  Sorry, there isn't one answer for any question that is right for everyone.  For microneedling, the most important question is how much experience the technician has and are they supervised by a physician?  Have you considered other treatment options?  We have more than a dozen treatment options in our office including microneedling.  We haven't had a patient choose microneedling in over 2 years.  There are many other options available with less risks and downtime.  Best of luck.
