What is Dermapen 4 microneedling?
Dermapen 4 is a medical-grade microneedling treatment that uses ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. Those micro-channels trigger the skin's own repair process, stimulating natural collagen and elastin production. At Minori Skincare in NoMad, Manhattan, it is used to improve texture, soften acne scars, reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, and address early signs of aging.
How does a Dermapen 4 session work at Minori?
Your clinician first assesses your skin and cleans the area being treated. A handheld device with very fine needles is moved across the skin in a controlled pattern, creating micro-channels. A professional serum is then applied to the treated area — those channels allow the serum to reach deeper layers than it would otherwise. The session ends with a protective product. You can book a Dermapen 4 treatment at Minori Skincare online or by calling the studio.
What can Dermapen 4 improve, and what can it not do?
Dermapen 4 is used for early signs of aging, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. The same micro-channel mechanism works across all of these concerns. It cannot address significant scarring, deep wrinkles, or skin conditions that require a different approach — and it does not replace a surgical or laser treatment for those conditions. If you have a specific concern, a consultation determines whether Dermapen 4 is the right starting point.
Who is Dermapen 4 microneedling suitable for?
It is suitable for most skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and other areas. People with active skin infections, certain skin conditions, or who are pregnant should discuss suitability with their clinician before booking. A consultation at Minori Skincare answers these questions and builds a plan specific to your skin.
What can you expect after a Dermapen 4 session?
The skin typically looks flushed and feels warm or tight, similar to a mild sunburn, for the first day or so. This settles without intervention. Your clinician will advise on which products to use and which to avoid in the days following treatment. Direct sun exposure should be limited while the skin is healing. A course of sessions is typically recommended for the best results, though the exact number depends on your skin goals and is discussed at consultation.
