How It Works

DP4 Microneedling is the breakthrough of the decade the most advanced needle cartridge innovation to vertically pierce the skin. DP4 glides over the skin creating millions of fine fractional channels up to 104% faster than other microneedling devices. These channels can carry up to 80% more topical nutrients deeper into the skin. 

In turn our body’s natural response triggers a natural process of repair. The result is an increased production of collagen and elastin, resurfacing, retexturizing and overall skin renewal anywhere on the body from around the eyes, eyelids, nose, neck, or larger areas such as decollete, stomach, and legs for stretch marks.  Doctors say DP4 can be used to treat the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles, acne scarring, sagging skin, stretch marks, pigmentation and enlarged pores.  

An added bonus: Microneedling creates 1000’s of tiny channels in the skin. The channels are a perfect product delivery system to deposit key ingredients (such as growth factors or PRP) deep into the dermis for foundational transformation.

FAQs

How many DP4 Microneedling Treatments will I need?

It is recommended to have a minimum of 3 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart for the most effective results. Maintenance treatments can be repeated as often as desired.

Is the DP4 Microneedling treatment painful?

As with any treatment at Vancouver Laser & Skin Care Centre, a variety of comfort measures are available. Numbing cream is not needed, but can be applied prior to the treatment to ensure a comfortable experience.

What will my skin look like after treatment?

Your skin will likely be red and feel warm similar to a sunburn. This feeling should subside over the next 24 hours with possible residual redness that can last for up to 7 days. You may feel a sandpaper-like texture on the skin and there is a possibility that your face will show a grid like stamping effect, this will naturally slough off over the next 7 days.

How long should it take before I see results?

Typically, you will see results after the first treatment. Lasting, more significant results, will become visible after 3-6 treatments. The condition of your skin will continue to improve over the next 6-12 months after a course of treatments from collage production.
