Dermapen alone gives good results — but combined with the right active vitamins applied through the micro-channels, results multiply. This is the protocol we use in our Medellín practice for patients seeking maximum skin renewal.
Why vitamins enter better through Dermapen
Topical vitamins (C, A, B5, peptides) face a major obstacle: the stratum corneum (outer skin layer) blocks 99% of large molecules. Dermapen creates micro-channels that bypass this barrier, allowing actives to reach deep dermal layers where they actually work.
Vitamin C: brightening and antioxidant
Pure L-ascorbic acid (15–20%) applied immediately post-Dermapen accelerates collagen synthesis, neutralizes free radicals from the procedure, and brightens overall complexion. Patients see noticeable luminosity by week 2.
Hyaluronic acid: immediate hydration
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (5–10%) penetrates deeply through micro-channels, hydrating from inner layers outward. Skin appears plump and glowing for 4–6 weeks. Excellent for dehydrated, mature or sun-damaged skin.
Growth factors and peptides
EGF, TGF-β and peptide complexes accelerate the natural healing response. Reduce post-procedure redness, improve collagen synthesis, and enhance long-term firmness. Especially valuable for acne scar protocols.
Personalized vitamin cocktails
In your consultation with Dr. Catalina Henao, we customize the active cocktail to your skin needs: anti-aging cocktail, anti-acne cocktail, brightening cocktail, or post-treatment recovery cocktail. The same Dermapen with the right active makes the difference between good and exceptional results.
