Dermafix – automated pen device
The Genosys automated pen device, the ‘Dermafix’ also stimulates the growth of collagen fibers by creating superficial breaks in the skin.
A topical anesthetic is not needed so therefore treatment time and cost are reduced.
How microneedling products work
Microneedling results in the natural response to wounding of the skin, even though the wound is minute and mainly subcutaneous.
A single needle prick would cause an invisible response.
However, when thousands or tens of thousands of fine pricks are placed together one gets a “field effect”.
This, therefore, promotes the normal post-traumatic release of growth factors and infiltration of fibroblasts.
This reaction is automatic and produces a surge of activity that inevitably leads to fibroblasts being instructed to produce more collagen and elastin.
