Dermapen Microneedling Berkshire

If you are looking for a clinically proven, results-driven treatment that addresses a wide range of skin concerns in a single session, Dermapen microneedling is one of the most versatile and effective options available in professional aesthetics today. At OG Skinhouse, we offer Dermapen 4 microneedling in Berkshire — the most advanced microneedling device currently on the market — delivered by our founder and skin specialist Olga Grigorita with the precision, expertise and personalised care that every client deserves.
 

Whether you are dealing with acne scarring, fine lines, pigmentation, enlarged pores, stretch marks or general skin dullness, Dermapen microneedling works with your skin's own biology to stimulate genuine, lasting improvement from the inside out.
 

What Is Dermapen Microneedling?
 

Dermapen microneedling is a form of collagen induction therapy — a clinically proven technique that uses a device containing ultra-fine sterile needles to create thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin's surface. These micro-injuries are precisely calculated to be small enough to cause minimal discomfort and downtime, but significant enough to trigger the skin's natural wound healing and regenerative response.

When the skin detects these micro-channels, it immediately begins producing new collagen and elastin — the structural proteins responsible for firmness, elasticity and youthful skin quality. Over a structured course of treatments, this process progressively rebuilds and remodels the skin from within, delivering improvements that go far deeper than surface-level skincare can achieve.

Typically you can expect improvements in the skin's appearance and texture after just one session. After 8 to 12 weeks you will start to notice more lasting and significant results, with your skin continuing to improve for up to 12 months, particularly if you follow the recommended post-treatment care.
 

What Is the Dermapen 4 and Why Does It Matter?
 

Not all microneedling devices are equal. At OG Skinhouse we use the Dermapen 4, the world's leading professional microneedling device and the gold standard in clinic-grade needle therapy. The difference in device quality directly affects your results, your comfort and your safety — which is why the device we use matters as much as the treatment itself.
 

AOVN Technology (Advanced Oscillating Vertical Needle)
 

The sterile single-use needles penetrate the skin with consistent vertical pressure, known as Advanced Oscillating Vertical Needling or AOVN Technology, for less skin damage, less downtime and superior results. Unlike traditional dermarollers, which create an arching cut through the skin, the Dermapen 4 needle enters and exits in a precise vertical motion — causing significantly less trauma and dramatically improving both comfort and recovery.
 

16-Needle Cartridge with Up to 1,920 Holes Per Second
 

The Dermapen 4 has a total of 16 needles that produce up to 1,920 holes per second — 47.69% more than its predecessor. This means faster treatment times, more consistent coverage and superior stimulation of the skin's healing response across the entire treatment area.
 

Adjustable Needle Depth from 0.1mm to 3.0mm
 

The penetration depth of the needle can reach up to 3.0mm and can be adjusted in 0.1mm increments for the treatment of different areas including the face, scalp and body. This precision allows Olga to tailor the depth of treatment precisely to each area, each skin concern and each client's individual skin thickness and sensitivity — something no fixed-depth device can achieve.
 

Dedicated Scar Treatment (ST) Setting
 

Dermapen 4 is FDA-cleared for the treatment of facial acne scars and is the only device on the market with a dedicated Scar Treatment setting, alongside multiple innovations that ensure safety, comfort and precision during each treatment. For clients with post-acne scarring, atrophic scars or surgical scars, this dedicated protocol reaches the depth required to genuinely remodel scar tissue rather than simply improving the skin's surface.
 

RFID Smart Cartridges
 

Each treatment uses a single-use sterile cartridge with built-in RFID technology that automatically calibrates the device for drag-free, precise penetration — guaranteeing consistent results and eliminating any risk of cross-contamination between clients.
 

What Skin Concerns Can Dermapen Microneedling Treat?
 

Dermapen 4 is one of the most versatile treatments in clinical aesthetics. At OG Skinhouse we use it to address a wide range of skin concerns, often in combination with other treatments for enhanced results.

Acne Scarring
 

One of the most in-demand applications of Dermapen microneedling. The dedicated ST scar setting allows Olga to reach the precise depth needed to break down fibrous scar tissue, stimulate new collagen formation and progressively smooth and fill atrophic acne scars over a course of treatments. Typically 4 to 5 sessions, six weeks apart.
 

Fine Lines and Wrinkles
 

By stimulating collagen and elastin production deep within the dermis, Dermapen microneedling visibly plumps, firms and smooths fine lines and deeper wrinkles — particularly around the eyes, mouth and forehead. Typically 4 sessions, six weeks apart.
 

Pigmentation and Sun Damage
 

Microneedling accelerates cell turnover and helps break down areas of concentrated melanin, making it an effective treatment for post-acne pigmentation, sun spots and age-related uneven skin tone. Most effective when combined with brightening serums applied during the treatment session. Typically 3 to 6 sessions, two to four weeks apart.
 

Enlarged Pores
 

By rebuilding the collagen structure around pore walls, Dermapen microneedling visibly tightens and reduces the appearance of enlarged or congested pores over a course of treatment. Typically 4 sessions, five weeks apart.
 

Skin Texture and Overall Skin Quality
 

For clients whose primary concern is dull, rough or uneven skin texture, a course of Dermapen microneedling delivers a visible and cumulative improvement in skin smoothness, radiance and overall quality — restoring a naturally healthy complexion.
 

Stretch Marks
 

Dermapen 4 is the only microneedling device on the market with an exclusive system specifically designed for the revision of deep and atrophic scars, surgical scars, burn contractures and stretch marks. The deeper needle settings allow treatment of stretch marks on the body, including the abdomen, thighs and décolletage, that surface-level treatments cannot effectively reach. Typically 4 to 6 sessions, six weeks apart.
 

Hair Loss and Thinning Hair
 

Dermapen microneedling applied to the scalp stimulates blood circulation, promotes growth factor activity and enhances the delivery of hair-supporting actives to the follicle — making it an effective non-surgical option for clients experiencing thinning or hair loss. Typically 4 to 6 sessions, four weeks apart.

Ageing and Sun-Damaged Skin
 

For clients experiencing the cumulative effects of UV exposure and natural ageing — including skin laxity, loss of elasticity and surface dullness — Dermapen microneedling rebuilds the skin's structural foundation and restores the vitality that time and sun damage erode. Typically 4 sessions, six weeks apart.
 

What to Expect During Your Treatment at OG Skinhouse
 

Consultation
 

Every Dermapen microneedling journey at OG Skinhouse begins with a thorough consultation. Olga will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and goals, and design a personalised treatment plan — including the appropriate needle depth, session frequency and any complementary treatments or serums to be used alongside microneedling.
 

Preparation

A medical-grade numbing cream is applied to the treatment area and left for approximately 20 to 30 minutes prior to the session, ensuring your comfort throughout.
 

Treatment

Olga applies a carefully selected serum — chosen for your specific skin concern — to the treatment area. The Dermapen 4 is then glided across the skin in a precise, controlled pattern, creating the micro-channels through which the serum penetrates deeply into the dermis. Treatment time for a full face is typically 30 to 45 minutes.
 

Immediately After
 

Your skin will appear pink to red, similar in sensation and appearance to mild sunburn. This is a completely normal and expected response and typically settles within 24 to 48 hours. Most clients are comfortable returning to normal activities the following day.
 

Post-Treatment Care
 

Olga will provide detailed aftercare instructions including which products to use and avoid in the days following treatment. Sun protection is essential. We recommend avoiding makeup for 24 hours, avoiding heat, saunas and strenuous exercise for 48 hours, and using only gentle barrier-supporting skincare in the immediate post-treatment period.
 

Dermapen Microneedling Combined With Other Treatments
 

For enhanced results, Dermapen microneedling works exceptionally well alongside other treatments offered at OG Skinhouse.
 

Combined with Dermalux LED Therapy
 

LED light therapy applied immediately after microneedling accelerates the skin's healing response, reduces post-treatment redness more quickly and amplifies the collagen-stimulating benefits of the microneedling session. You can read more about our Dermalux LED Therapy treatment on its dedicated page.
 

Combined with Chemical Peels
 

Used in a structured programme, chemical peels and microneedling address different layers and aspects of the same concern — peels improving surface pigmentation and texture, microneedling rebuilding the deeper dermal structure. Find out more about our Chemical Peels at OG Skinhouse.

Combined with DermaClear Hydradermabrasion
 

An excellent preparatory treatment before beginning a microneedling course, ensuring the skin is thoroughly cleansed, well-hydrated and primed to respond optimally to microneedling. Learn more about our DermaClear Hydradermabrasion treatment.

Olga will recommend the most appropriate combination programme based on your individual skin assessment and the concerns you want to address.

Frequently Asked Questions
 

Is Dermapen microneedling painful?
 

Numbing cream is applied before every session, making the treatment comfortable for the vast majority of clients. Most people describe a mild warmth or pressure sensation during treatment rather than pain.

How many sessions will I need?

This depends entirely on your skin concern. Most conditions respond well to a course of four to six sessions. Olga will give you a clear recommendation at your consultation based on your individual assessment.
 

When will I see results?
 

Results can be seen as early as 10 days post treatment, however for most people results are visible within 6 to 8 weeks, with continued improvements for up to 1 year after your first treatment.
 

Is it safe for all skin types?
 

Yes. Dermapen microneedling is safe for all skin types and tones, including darker skin tones where some laser-based treatments carry additional risk. Olga will assess your skin and confirm suitability at your consultation.
 

Can I wear makeup afterwards?
 

We recommend avoiding makeup for 24 hours after treatment to allow the micro-channels to close fully and reduce any risk of irritation.
