What Dermapen is for
Dermapen creates micro-channels in the skin at a controlled depth. The skin responds by repairing itself and producing collagen, and it is this process that, session after session, gradually improves texture and evenness.
It is an autumn and winter treatment: the skin needs to stay out of the sun in the weeks that follow.
A course, not a single session
Microneedling works cumulatively. At Hippie Chic it is done as a course of three sessions, about four weeks apart, so the skin has time to recover.
It all starts with the free skin consultation: we confirm whether Dermapen is right for you and explain the course and the price before you book.
