Dermapen and Its Effects on the Skin
What is Dermapen?
Dermapen is a microneedling treatment used to rejuvenate the skin and address various skin concerns. It involves creating microchannels in the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating natural healing processes. This promotes collagen and elastin production, resulting in skin rejuvenation and improved appearance.
