At Amara, medical microneedling with Rejuvapen is one of the most effective tools we have to promote collagen growth and elastin production.
The importance of collagen and elastin as structural components of your skin cannot be underestimated which is makes Rejuvapen a powerful treatment option when addressing multiple skin concerns.
What is Rejuvapen?
Rejuvapen is a medical microneedling tool used to address multiple skin concerns by stimulating the body’s natural healing responses. As a result of treatment, your skin produces collagen and elastin which greatly improves your skin’s appearance in a number of ways.
How does Rejuvapen work?
Rejuvapen works by puncturing the very top layer of your skin and inducing your body’s natural repair mechanisms. This promotes the production of collagen (strength and structure) and elastin (skin elasticity) as a response to the micro damage.
Rejuvapen perforates the skin in a very precise way. Depth, spacing and angle are all highly controlled so the treatment is very structured. The micro perforations are invisible to the eye but detected by the body’s repair systems. Once detected, the body shifts natural repair systems up a gear and production of collagen and elastin begins. This response is completely natural, it’s just that Rejuvapen induces it.
What is Rejuvapen for?
Rejuvapen effectively addresses multiple skin concerns. It is a powerful tool for addressing:
Pore size | Acne scarring |
Fine lines and wrinkles | Sagging and loose skin |
Hyperpigmentation | Dull, lifeless skin |
Stretch marks | Scars |
What does Rejuvapen feel like? Does Rejuvapen hurt?
Clients describe the sensation as similar to that of fine sandpaper vibrating like an electric toothbrush against their skin. A topical anaesthetic is applied to the skin and allowed to take effect before the procedure which means patients describe it as very tolerable.
What are the results of treatment with Rejuvapen?
The stimulation of collagen and elastin production has a regenerative effect on many common skin concerns:
Pore Size | Improves pore structure and stability lessening the chances of clogging and blockages associated with acne, breakouts and blemishes |
Acne Scarring | Improves the appearance of acne scarring by stimulating collagen and elastin to compensate deficiencies in scars formed due to acne damage |
Fine Lines and Wrinkles | Restoring lost collagen and elastin smooths out fine lines and wrinkles |
Sagging and Loose Skin | Sagging and loose skin is caused by loss of structure and elasticity, the two thing Rejuvapen provides. |
Hyperpigmentation | The improved circulation and regenerated tissue greatly diminishes the appearance of hyperpigmentation |
Dull, lifeless skin | Promoting natural skin regeneration is the perfect way to rejuvenate dull and lifeless skin |
Stretch marks | Increasing the levels of collagen and elastin in the skin can improve stretch marks |
Scars | Improves the appearance of skin scarring through the stimulation of collagen and elastin which compensates for scar deficiencies |
