Dermapen Microneedling with ÜBER Pro Peel

Yes, microneedling and chemical peels can be combined, but it’s crucial to approach this carefully, as performing both treatments simultaneously can be too harsh for the skin. Our Dermapen Microneedling combined with the ÜBER Pro Peel is specifically designed to be done together. This combination allows the benefits of both treatments to enhance each other, leading to more effective skin rejuvenation and healing. It’s important to consult with a skincare professional to ensure it’s suitable for your skin type and to address any specific concerns you might have. The professional can also guide you on the best practices for aftercare to maximize results and minimize any potential side effects.

While the application of these treatments differs, both aim to improve the appearance of the skin. Their suitability depends on the patient’s skin type, medical history, and desired outcome. 

Microneedling works for all skin tones and can reduce deep wrinkles by boosting collagen and promoting skin healing. Optimal results typically require three to six sessions every two to six weeks. 

Chemical peels are great for removing dark spots, freckles, or surface-level acne. Chemical solutions are used to resurface the skin. Light peels have minimal downtime, while medium to deep peels require two to three weeks of recovery. Patients typically require four to six light peels spaced  3-4 weeks apart to achieve the desired results.

• Consider stopping self-medicated anticoagulants (e.g., aspirin) and supplements (e.g., garlic tablets, omega 3) 7-10 days before treatment to reduce bleeding risk. Continue with aspirin only if the patient accepts increased bleeding risk.
• Avoid using exfoliating products for 3-5 days before treatment.
• Ensure at least 2 weeks have passed since any injectable treatments (Dermal fillers, Botox), laser treatments, and 6 weeks since Radiesse.
• Allow 8 weeks since Dermabrasion or resurfacing/ablative radiofrequency treatments.
• Microdermabrasion, superficial peels (AHA, BHA), and electrolysis can be done 1-2 weeks before microneedling.
• Hair removal should be done 2-3 days before microneedling.
• Wait at least 1 week after the last application of spray or self-tan before microneedling.
• For Vitamin A (tretinoin) and retinoids, wait until the skin is acclimatized with no or minimal erythema (8 weeks) and stop use a week before treatment.

Yes, both microneedling and chemical peels can help with acne. Microneedling promotes skin healing and reduces scarring by creating tiny punctures that boost collagen production. This process can clear pores and improve skin texture, reducing breakouts.

Chemical peels work by removing the top layer of skin, unclogging pores, and reducing inflammation, which can diminish acne and its scarring. When used together, these treatments enhance each other’s effects, offering a more comprehensive approach to managing acne and improving overall skin health.

The results should last approximately 3 months + or longer with maintenance after you complete the course of treatments.

Microneedling can be a bit uncomfortable, depending on factors like needle depth, pain tolerance, use of numbing cream, and treatment area. During the procedure (approximately 15-30 minutes), you may feel light pinpricks. After the procedure, the skin will likely feel tender, similar to a mild sunburn, for up to a couple of days.

The ÜBER Pro Peel is a superficial peel, which is the entry-level medical peel. These are typically very well tolerated. Sensations may include mild tingling or stinging, with minimal discomfort, often described as a warm feeling or slight burning.

ÜBER Pro Peel has special ingredients that help renew cells and treat signs of ageing, discoloration, pigmentation issues, melasma, milia, and acne. This product is great for treating pigmentation, sun damage, signs of ageing, and problem skin. It is safe for all skin tones.
