About this deal
You may notice skin irritation and redness within the first few days of the procedure. This is a natural response to the minor “injuries” made by the needles in your skin. These are some of the very best art pens for drawing and are composed of single pigments that are waterproof and bleed-free. Given you use compatible sketching paper, of course. If you’re a longtime sketcher, you’ll know that fountain pens make for some of the best art pens for creative work besides writing. They allow you to create bolder, more fluid linework than that achieved with a fineliner or ballpoint pen. Instantly after your microneedling treatment, your skin is likely to be red and inflamed, but it’ll be plumped and dewy thanks to all of the good cells and platelets rushing to the surface. From days 7 to 14 and onwards, you’ll experience the full effect of the microneedling glow. This is the perfect amount of time for the skin to fully heal and send all of that extra collagen to the surface. Applying active ingredients and retinol shortly after microneedling is what everyone assumes will get them an even deeper, longer-lasting glow. In reality, applying actives and retinol too early into the healing process may damage the skin, and may inhibit the skin's natural healing abilities. Microneedling works best when you use hyaluronic acid only during the healing phase, this is an ingredient your body already naturally produces.
They’re perfect for drawing at your craft desk or on the go, and their chunky pen body makes them extra comfortable to hold.

While derma rollers work under the same principle as microneedling, they don’t penetrate the skin as deeply as microneedling does.
Nano-needling stimulates collagen production in the skin by safely infusing active ingredients from your serum through tiny nano-channels. This is very similar, but less invasive than microneedling and allows up to 97% product absorption. This treatment combats fine lines, acne, hyperpigmentation, and other skin blemishes through the transdermal delivery system for increased effectiveness of serums. Unlike microneedling, nano-needling does not require any numbing cream and will painlessly smooth the skins texture to leave your skin glowing by triggering your body’s self-rejuvenation process. The recommended nanoneedling length is .25mm and you may perform this procedure with your Dr Pen device every week. It’s best to see a board certified dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or cosmetic surgeon for this procedure. In some states, an aesthetician may also be able to perform the procedure if supervised by a physician.
