I had much better success with this pen than the dermaroller. I am far more careful on how much pressure I am applying. Just be careful what you put on your skin right after. A couple of my serums that are usually pretty gentle, stung quite a bit when I applied them right after.

I really like this Dr Pen microneedle device. It comes almost fully charged and doesn't take much longer to become charged the rest of the way. It's actually pretty easy to use. I haven't had any issues with it, my only complaint is that the booklet doesn't state if you can use the needle heads more than once (self use) or dispose of afterwards.

Seeing skin improvement after first use. Well worth the money!

This microneedling pen is wonderful! I have had this done at the spa a few times and it always gave great results, but it's expensive. This is a good alternative. I have owned a cheaper brand pen before, but I never saw results and it was so painful.

This one does not hurt and has several different settings and needles to choose from. This is good because you should not use the same one size fits all for your unique skin types. I have not tried this for hair growth, but I do use it for fine likes and wrinkles. It works well without irritating my skin.

The price is a little high, which normally I would not be okay with... However, I have used cheaper ones with no results so in this case I'd say it's worth the extra money to have a quality product that will actually get you results.

This micro needling tool is fantastic for your skincare routine. Easy to use, sterile, and high quality. Highly recommended.

I find this product to be the easy way to get spa type or med type microneedling at home. Simple enough to where you can use it on yourself, or on a friend. Just remember to never share anything that scrapes even a small layer of skin.
I watched an online video in order to acquaint myself with this particular product. It's nice that they have them available since it can be intimidating for beginners.
I've also found that this is quite a well-known brand, popular with influencers.
If you're considering spending a fortune to get it done at a spa, and having a bit of sticker shock, this might be the way to go for you.

First, this pen does more than just vibrate. It does move up and down, it just goes so fast that you can not tell. I bought one once off the auction site. It was a knockoff, only vibrated and did more damage than good. Professionals use and trust this pen! Anyway, because this pen moves so fast it may make gliding along the skin more difficult so I highly recommend a gel or hyaluronic acid. I also recommend lidocaine. You are essentially stabbing yourself hundreds if times. These little tears produce collagen, plumping skin and repairing it. It helps wrinkles, redness, acne and stretch marks. Don't expect results overnight, though. This takes patience and persistence. I've used rollers and manual wands for years. When I have stuck to it, I have seen huge improvements in my stretch marks. No, they will never go away, but they have shrunk and are thinner and not as deep. This pen will help new ones fade faster too. This pen is magical because it does the stabbing for you so fast you don't notice. Taking a roller to your face is hard, and many give up. This pen is portable and wireless which is fantastic. I hate cords but if it does die, you can also use it plugged in. It has six speeds, and you can adjust the depth to the area you are treating. Follow the recommendations, going too deep on your face can cause damage you don't want. This pen is well made. Each needle tip comes individually wrapped for hygiene. They are also easily bought on Amazon. If you have been looking for a derma pen, don't waste your money on the other ones!

 I got this Dr. Pen M8 micro-needling pen. It's their newest model so the difference between this pen and the Dr. pen A6 is that the M8 is definitely longer and it has a sleeker handle, it’s really easy to hold now the A6 the numbers where you can adjust the millimeters 0.25 goes up to 2.5 millimeters you can really see these numbers very easily but this M8 is hard to see/read. I wish that companies like this would realize that some eyes like mine can't see this, so that's kind of a drawback with this pen is that in order to see the millimeter I have to have my glasses on and it's still very hard to see while A6 you can easily read. The display on M8 is better and brighter than A6. You can very easily read the display. The cartridges of M8 are definitely thinner compared to A6, please keep in mind they are not cross-compatible with each other. There are not as many cartridge styles of the M8 so they have 16 pins and 32 pins and I really didn't see any other variation where the A6 has a ton of different pins.

The glide with these thinner needles is very easy and painless. love the design where it really is able to be held almost like a pencil and I felt like I had a lot more control in holding the pen in my application the glide of the thinner needles I thought was superior.

If you're just looking for like a basic pen keep it at a cosmetic needling or even go up to up to a one millimeter and you have thin skin and you've been hesitant to do it I think that m8 is a great choice.

I have had microneedling done in the salon several times. It is typically a semi-painful experience but the results are well worth it. However, it is expensive (typically $125+). When I saw this at home kit, I really wanted to try it. I will say that it is pretty comparable to what I get in the salon. I have used this twice in the last month. Not that easy, for me anyway, to do this on my own face. I have a tendency to 'take it easy' on the areas that I think may be sensitive, so I did not concentrate on all the areas the same. I used some great serum here as the base and my skin did feel amazing after use. I did convince a girlfriend to try this tonight, figure it might be easier if we each do it on each other's face. Other than my not being able to do it to myself properly, I highly recommend this microneedling pen.

I had been on the market for a Microneeedling Pen for a long time as I was interested in both the benefits microneedling could provide for both my skin and my hair. Based on some basic research I did into how microneedling works, its my understanding that the idea is to penetrate the skin with the microneedles and increase absorption of skincare products and promote regrowth of collagen and in the case of hair regrowth there is some evidence that it promotes the return of blood flow to areas dormant hair follicles.

I had always seen and heard of the quality of Dr Pen microneedling pens so I finally decided to get this one. From the moment you take the Dr Pen M8 out of the packaging you can feel its premium quality and weight. The pen has a very sleek metal finish and comes with 8 replacement cartridges of different numbers of pins and a charging cable and adapter. The pen has adjustable depths and speeds which make it easy to adjust to the different areas of your skin. I would recommend looking up a microneedling chart that explains what depth to use on different parts of your face. In terms of microneedling the hairline, I stuck with targeting my temple areas, but did not use any product. This was my first time using a device like this and it was not difficult. I would definitely recommend the Dr Pen M8 to anyone interested in dipping their toes into the world of mirconeedling.
