The Dermatech Pen is an automatic facial and body microneedling device designed to stimulate the natural regeneration of the skin. Thanks to an electrically powered micro-needle module, it generates controlled micro-injuries that activate collagen and elastin production. This action helps improve skin firmness, density, and texture, achieving a visible overall anti-aging effect.
The Dermatech Pen system offers adjustable depth and speed, making it possible to personalize the treatment according to skin type and area being treated. Higher speeds produce gentle stimulation, while slower speeds create deeper micro-injuries for more intense results. This level of control ensures that each session is safe and effective, respecting the integrity of the skin.

How Long-Term Treatment Plans Produce Advanced Skincare Correction
It’s no longer about booking a single facial or even committing to a series of treatments. Clients and patients are partnering with skincare professionals for lifetime skin health strategies. Professionals aren’t just service providers; they’re trusted guides who help their clients navigate the biological changes, environmental stressors, and lifestyle shifts that impact skin health across decades.
Think of it as a shift from one-off fixes to skincare mentorship. The role of the esthetician or medical skincare professional now extends beyond the treatment room, providing holistic planning, seasonal adjustments, and support through hormonal and life stage changes.
Two Types of Applicators
There are two types of applicators: 36 sterile surgical needles and sterile 3D tips. The first is used for global anti-aging treatments on all skin types except sensitive skin or skin with imperfections. The 3D tips are designed for sensitive skin, delicate areas, and specific treatments such as the eye and lip contours, as well as for preparing the skin before other procedures.
On the other hand, one of the greatest benefits of the Dermatech Pen is that it does not alter natural features. Regeneration occurs from within, through a controlled inflammatory response that activates fibroblasts and triggers collagen and elastin synthesis. As a result, it provides skin rejuvenation, improved texture, firmness, even tone, and the softening of fine lines and wrinkles.
Dermatech Pen and Expert Lab Cocktails
Combining the Dermatech Pen with Germaine de Capuccini’s Expert Lab cocktails enhances the results. Each cocktail contains specific active ingredients that complement the action of the microneedles, increasing absorption and treatment effectiveness. Cocktails are selected according to the skin’s needs and the goal of each session.
For example, the Glow Complex is an antioxidant and illuminating treatment that revitalizes dehydrated or dull skin. Using it with the Dermatech Pen allows for deeper penetration of its actives, unifying skin tone and improving surface texture.
The EGF Complex is indicated for mature or aging skin, as the growth factors it contains promote cellular renewal, increase elasticity, and reduce wrinkles and expression lines. Applied together with microneedling, its rejuvenating effects are significantly enhanced.
The Liquid Collagen Complex has an immediate firming effect, ideal for skin that has lost firmness or density. Its action, combined with the Dermatech Pen, improves skin structure and provides a natural lifting effect in delicate areas, including the eye contour.
The Lift Complex is an intensive treatment that strengthens firmness and elasticity, especially for aged or sagging skin. Combined with the Dermatech Pen, the result is denser and plumper skin, softened expression lines, and a more youthful overall appearance.
The Rejuvenating Complex focuses on lines and wrinkles, loss of volume, and dehydration. When applied with the Dermatech Pen, it enhances skin regeneration, offering a global anti-aging effect that improves firmness, texture, and luminosity.
To protect the skin from environmental damage and oxidative stress, the AOX System Ferulic is recommended, which also unifies tone and improves hydration. Using it with the Dermatech Pen allows its antioxidants to penetrate deeper layers, increasing the effectiveness of each session.
In cases of spots, melasma, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, the Dark Spot Complex and BIO RDS Retinol treatments are ideal. The controlled micro-aggression of the Dermatech Pen helps the actives reach deeper layers, reducing spot intensity and evening skin tone faster and more effectively.
The number of sessions depends on the area being treated and the specific objective. For example, 2 to 4 sessions are recommended, spaced 7–15 days apart depending on the cocktail and applicator. Safety is guaranteed, but it is not indicated for pregnant women, people with cancer, severe heart problems, hemophilia, active or severe acne, rosacea, patients treated with Roaccutan, anticoagulants, or treatments that could cause skin hypersensitivity, nor during fever or facial herpes episodes.
The Dermatech Pen is a high-tech professional device, designed to provide the highest standards of efficacy and safety for non-invasive beauty and wellness therapies. Continuous updates and personalization of protocols and products guarantee visible results from the first session. In addition to its effectiveness, the device stands out for its comfort during treatment. The technique is fast, safe, and virtually painless, with minimal recovery periods, allowing it to be combined with other cosmetic treatments to maximize results without disrupting the patient’s routine.
Microneedling generates controlled skin aggression, causing an inflammatory response that releases growth factors and stimulates fibroblasts. The increase in collagen and elastin results in firmer, revitalized skin with even tone. It also improves the texture of thick skin and reduces pore size, achieving a healthy and natural appearance.
Depth and speed adjustment, together with the appropriate applicator selection, allow each session to be adapted to the skin type and treatment protocol. This flexibility makes the Dermatech Pen suitable for global anti-aging treatments as well as specific care for delicate or sensitive areas.
For all these reasons, the Dermatech Pen, combined with Expert Lab cocktails, offers a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation. It improves firmness, density, texture, and tone, softens lines and wrinkles, and revitalizes the face and body without altering natural expressions. The combination of advanced technology and innovative formulas delivers visible and safe results, making it an essential tool in professional aesthetic treatments.
