Dr. Pen Ultima M8 Professional Microneedling Dermapen, USB Rechargeable, 5pcs 24pin Cartridges Replacement Pack
This is my first micro-needling device and I would prefer it over the suction devices (said to provide similar results for fine lines) and manual tools. Yes, these are literally fine needles like pins but it's not as horrible as you'd expect. You have CONTROL over the density (IE: how deep this is inserted into your skin) and you can adjust the needle length with a simple turn of the knob. The needle heights range from 0.00 - 2.5+.
You can also adjust the speed which will help you get used to the device's intensity. It goes from level 1 up to level 6. However, my LED screen had some of the numbers upside down although the device works just fine. For example, the level 3 = E, 4 = h, 6 = 9, but 1/2/5 are reading correctly. The screen lights up, so it's easy to read and the options are simple to adjust (turn the knob or push button).
The other manual micro-needling pens don't offer as many customizations as this device which is a must for beginners. For more experienced users, you can switch out the needles for advanced ones (up to 50 Nano) since Dr. Pen offers other options (this device doesn't come with it). The power button is NOT marked so you need to reference the instruction manual to locate that. This device also comes with a 6-month product warranty, AC/DC adapter with the removable USB cord, and the carrying bag. This device is easy and thrilling to use as you become more familiar with it.

Over the past couple years, I've found that I really love microneedling, especially along my face. Having a good bit of age on me, my face shows some of those lines we all get with age. Though I do moisturize and treat my skin with various skincare products, microneedling really helps to make sure that I'm being treated on a much deeper level. Dr. Pen's microneedling pen takes that treatment to a much deeper level than I'd ever imagined.
This pen reminds me a bit of one of those pens that diabetics use when they test their glucose levels, except that this one is much more high end. It has a metal casing and is somewhat weighted. Feels very comfortable in the hand when using. Very easy to attach the needle end. The needle has a cap to keep the area clean between uses. There's also a needle length adjustment nob around the barrel towards the top. It's ridged for better gripping. There are fractional numbers for various lengths. You align your selection with an arrow next to the ringed nob.
I do wish though that the numbers were larger and bolder because I do find them very difficult to read, especially not having anymore the great eyesight that I had in my youth. In fact, I didn't even see them at first until I looked really hard under some bright lights. Hopefully, they will improve the readability with future models.
Make sure that you first prepare your skin with some sort of serum or moisturizer before using. You'll need that. Also, I very highly suggest that when you use this for the first time that you set the pin length to the shortest possible selection. This particular pen in pretty intense and goes deeper than others that I've tried. If you find that it's too short for your needs, you can always increase its length. Facial skin especially should use a shorter length. Other body parts might benefit from a longer pin length. Again, work your way up. Then set your speed and you are ready to go.
Though I'm an experienced microneedler, I've found that this is the most intense microneedler that I've ever used. Not for the faint of heart. Usually I use this along my face with more concentrated use in various areas. It feels stimulating and can even have a little bit of what almost feels like a burning feeling, depending on your selected penetration. Also, after using, I still feel a bit of stinging for about an hour afterwards. In fact, the areas of my face where I've concentrated more intense use will be red. That will last for about an hour. That will go away, as well as that stinging feeling. It does help my skincare products to penetrate more deeply which ultimately provides me with a much better facial treatment.
A great product to use for anyone who is a serious microneedler and want a much more intense and deeper skincare treatment. Just make sure you study the instructions before use and work your way up very gently.

I was a little unsure when I first started looking into these meat tenderizers, the fine needles move fast and only slightly pierce the outer skin surface. Its almost like aerating your lawn premoting new skin cells to grow. I'm just staring out so time will tell the full story, I'll update if I see good or bad changes. Be sure to keep the heads clean and sterile.

Can be used both wired and wireless. It has an ergonomic shape design and 6-speed digital speed display, which allows you to use the product more conveniently. This set can help the skin to better absorb facial serum, such as vitamin C serum, hyaluronic acid serum. It is also a good choice as a gift for a friend.

I am just amazed how different this is to use vs. my roller! It is like a total change and you get to see results so much faster! If you have not used a pen before there are some great videos out there to get you started! I do recommend getting some numbing cream (I am a whimp) as it can be painful. Make sure you read the directions before you start. My fine lines are gone and my face is glowing!

Dr. Pen M8 is a beast at unleashing intense treatment that softened both my unsightly stretch marks and my cavernous furrows. It not only helped the healing of additional surgical scarring, it hydrated and brightened my complexion. I’m not sure if I’m more impressed by all of its many benefits or the fact I was able to experience its goodness while sitting on my love sofa!

Starting out home micro-needling and I started on my breast to see if I could get rid of some stretch marks. With plenty of hyaluronic acid the needle works great up to 2mm. I did test a patch on my thigh, where I also have some stretch marks, and I can't get the needle to work well at any depth greater than 2mm. Perhaps it is my technique, but I changed nothing and as soon as I go above 2mm the needles begin to catch and stop gliding. Either way it's a fair product for the purchase price, just be aware that you may have issues going to greater depths with this needle.

I saw some YouTube videos of people microneedling at home and this was a top recommendation. SO glad I took the plunge and got this pen because it has changed my skin substantially in just the two months I've been using it. Replacement cartridges for this unit are affordable and easy to find.
