DP4® is a treatment that can be performed on the face, neck, décolletage, hands, and other parts of the body. In addition, the DP4® microneedling treatment is suitable for all skin types, for both men and women, and can be performed at any age.

Our body generates electrochemical currents. These currents can be measured and visualized (e.g., an electrocardiogram). Our skin is, figuratively speaking, a very flat battery that generates a current. If we pierce the epidermis, the current will be irreversibly destroyed. However, if the epidermis is punctured with microneedles, the blood supply to the puncture site will be temporarily cut off, but the body will repair the damage immediately.

Microneedles, which have very fine, sharp tips, are atraumatic—that is, they do not cause injury. These are harmless because they remain on the surface of the epidermis. However, as the body has registered a disturbance in the epidermal layers, it reacts and begins within milliseconds to produce new cells that repair the damage at the site of the puncture. These new cells integrate into the existing cellular structure and expand it: the thickness of the epidermis increases.

The tip is for single use, and the motion is automated.

As side effects, redness may appear and a slight tingling sensation may be felt, especially on more sensitive skin, but these effects will disappear very quickly after the treatment. You can resume your normal activities the day after the treatment, which makes this care practical and not very constraining.
