Dermapen
Microneedling

From the age of 20, collagen production starts to decline each year until skin aging, observed as thin, dull, and sagging skin becomes apparent. Medical microneedling follows a process of controlled microinjuries made at speed with fine microneedles.  These fine dermal punctures stimulate a controlled healing process which induces fibroblast cells in the dermis to produce collagen and elastin.  This stimulates an increase in the quality and support structure of the skin resulting in a tightening, brightening smoothing and overall rejuvenating effect.  Microneedling can further treat a wide variety of skin concerns as it creates safe channels for deeper product delivery.  It allows a doctor to apply medical grade serums specifically formulated for dermal injection.  This may include prescription medications, hyaluronic acid, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.  Dr Silberbauer does not mix any of these ingredient preparations herself but uses sterile premixed serums from reputable medical aesthetic companies.  Concerns treated include pigmentation, poor skin texture, enlarged pores, mild acne and acne scarring, melasma, sun damage, fine lines, rosacea, striae/stretch marks, alopecia/hair loss and keratosis pilaris.  The Dermapen™ 4 Pro medical device is a microneedling device exclusive to doctor’s practices with well worked out protocols for the safe administration of this procedure.  Other than the face, areas that are commonly treated include the décolleté and hands for anti-aging, buttock, abdomen inner arms and thighs for stretch marks, and body areas with trauma scars.
