Dermapen4 micro-needling

Precision micro-needling that triggers the skin's own repair response for smoother, firmer skin.

From $45060 minutes

Usually recommended as an initial course of 3 to 6 treatments, followed by maintenance every few months.

What it is

Dermapen4 is precision micro-needling that creates tiny channels in the skin to trigger its own repair response, supporting collagen for smoother, firmer skin. Skinfresh was one of the first clinics in New Zealand to use it. It can be combined with other treatments to focus on concerns such as signs of ageing, acne, scarring and pigmentation. When a stronger result is wanted, the Vampire Facial Plus is its upgrade: the same needling with your own platelet-rich plasma added.

Who it suits

Suited to uneven texture, fine lines, sun-damaged skin, acne and other scars, enlarged pores and stretch marks. Gentle enough for all skin types and tones. We recommend a course of 3 - 6 initial treatments and then maintenance treatments.
