Microneedling · Berlin Mitte

Smooth skinevery day

Acne scars, first fine lines, enlarged pores — your skin deserves more than surface-level care. Our Dermapen uses sterile single-use needles to create controlled micro-injuries that activate your skin's own collagen induction response. The result: a smoother, more even complexion, firmer skin, and refined pores — no surgery, no downtime. Book directly online.

When your skincare routine hits a wall

AHA serums, retinol, gua-sha — most at-home routines work at the surface, but not at the deeper level where acne scars, collagen loss, and enlarged pores actually start. Microneedling with the Dermapen targets the dermis directly, triggering a regeneration process no daily moisturizer can reach.

Acne scars from your teens that are still visible years later.

Flat, atrophic scars — whether Ice-Pick, rolling, or Boxcar — sit deep in the dermis. AHAs can brighten the surface, but they never reach the scar structure itself. The Dermapen creates controlled micro-injuries directly in the target zone, activating the remodeling of scar tissue from within.

Early fine lines and visible collagen loss.

From your mid-20s onward, your skin loses around one percent of its collagen production every year. The eye area, forehead, and nasolabial folds show the first signs. Serums deliver active ingredients only as far as the upper epidermis — the Dermapen channels hyaluronic acid and peptides directly into the dermis and stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen.

Enlarged pores despite a careful skincare routine.

Large pores develop when collagen around the pore canal breaks down — no cleanser in the world can tighten that. Microneedling stimulates new collagen formation around the pore, visibly reduces pore size, and lastingly improves skin texture over a course of Treatments.

Pigmentation spots and an uneven complexion.

Melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after acne, sun damage — pigmentation spots form in the epidermis and upper dermis. The microchannels opened by Microneedling allow vitamin C and brightening actives to be delivered exactly where they're needed, while the accelerated cell turnover works toward a more even complexion.

Who is
Microneedling right for?

Microneedling works especially well for normal to resilient skin with acne scars, combination skin with enlarged pores, mature skin with fine lines and early signs of laxity, and skin with pigmentation spots or stretch marks. The eye area — think dark circles and crow's feet — benefits from a targeted treatment too. It's suitable from age 18 (acne scarring) through midlife and beyond — Anti-Aging from 30 onwards is a classic use case. It's less suited for active, inflamed acne, very sensitive skin, Couperose, or Rosacea — for those, our Nanoneedling with the nanoGLOW 3D system works needle-free and purely epidermal, and is expressly designed as a gentler alternative. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and blood-thinning medication rule out a treatment.

How Microneedling really works — and why Dermapen makes all the difference

Microneedling might sound unusual at first: tiny needles that puncture the skin. But what's behind it is your body's own regeneration cascade — not a chemical intervention, but a precise repair signal. The Dermapen, an electrically motorized pen with sterile single-use needles, makes this mechanism predictable, hygienic, and precisely adjustable to every zone. The result of a course of 3–6 sessions: more collagen, a more even skin tone, and visibly reduced scars and pores.

Our Micro- needling

Dermapen Treatment
for Collagen Renewal

  1. A classic dermaroller drags needles diagonally through the skin — creating uncontrolled micro-tears and a higher hygiene risk. The electric Dermapen stamps vertically, each needle hitting the precise target depth (0.25–2.5 mm depending on the zone and skin type), while sterile single-use tips prevent cross-contamination.

  2. Your skin reads those tiny punctures as an injury signal. Fibroblasts in the dermis respond immediately, synthesizing new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid — a mechanism known as collagen induction therapy, and one that delivers lasting improvement to your skin.

  3. The microchannels opened by the Dermapen allow active ingredients to penetrate directly into the dermis — percutaneous absorption is many times higher than with topical application alone. Hyaluronic acid, peptides, and vitamin C cocktails get to work exactly where they're needed.

  4. Cosmetic Microneedling in the studio works within the upper dermis — more than enough for acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, and pigmentation. Non-invasive, no anaesthetic, 79–129 € — compared to 250 € and more at a medical practice. For deep scars, we'll honestly refer you to a dermatologist.

  5. Collagen renewal is a process, not an instant fix. Full results build cumulatively over 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart — that's when scars, pores, and fine lines show a real difference. After that, a single maintenance session per quarter or every six months is all you need.

How Microneedling works on your skin in 3 phases

What's actually happening in your skin while the Dermapen is at work? Microneedling triggers a three-stage regeneration cascade — from the first controlled micro-injuries, through the activation of fibroblasts, all the way to collagen maturation over several weeks. The interplay of these three phases is exactly why a single session delivers a visible glow, and a course of Treatments creates lasting improvement in your skin.

  1. Controlled Micro-Injuries

    Step 1

    The Dermapen uses fine single-use needles (0.25–2.5 mm depending on the zone) to create thousands of tiny channels in the epidermis and upper dermis. Each needle hits its target structure vertically — scar tissue, a fine line, a pore edge — opening a precise channel. At the same time, active ingredients are delivered directly into the deeper layers through these channels.

  2. Your Skin's Own Regeneration

    Step 2

    Your skin reads the microchannels as an injury signal. Fibroblasts in the dermis kick off collagen induction therapy: new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid are synthesized. Inflammatory mediators set the regeneration process in motion — targeted, controlled, and without causing lasting damage to your skin.

  3. Collagen Maturation Over 4–12 Weeks

    Step 3

    The new collagen matures over several weeks. Scar tissue remodels, your skin's structure becomes denser and firmer, and pore edges tighten. Full results build up cumulatively with a course of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart — with complete collagen maturation reached at around 3 months.

Your Solution for Deeper Skin Concerns

Microneedling reaches with its needles all the way into the upper dermis — right where scar tissue, collagen breakdown, and deeper wrinkles live. These six indications show when the Dermapen really comes into its own. For more surface-level concerns like dehydration or Couperose, our Nanoneedling is the better fit.

    • Online questionnaire right in the booking process

    • Setting the needle depth (0.25–2.5 mm), treatment zones, and your personalised active ingredient cocktail
  2. Cleansing & Prep

    Clean skin, zero fuss — a thorough cleanse for optimal ingredient absorption:

    • Make-up and residue gently removed, skin disinfected
    • Active ingredient cocktail prepared to match your skin type and treatment goal
    • You relax, we get everything ready — no waiting around for anaesthetic to kick in

    • Sterile single-use tip for every session — no cross-contamination
    • Systematic treatment of the target zones depending on the option (face, eye area, neck, décolleté)

    • A little redness right after is completely normal and fades within 24–48 hours
  4. Finish & Home Care Recommendations

    To help your skin recover and keep your results looking their best:

    • Soothing post-care with non-comedogenic products
    • SPF 50+ sunscreen is a must for 7 days — your skin will be more sensitive to UV
    • No exercise, no sauna, no makeup for 24 hours after your treatment
    • Recommended follow-up: a course of treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart

An honest look: what Microneedling can do — and what it can't

Microneedling isn't a miracle cure — but for the right indications, it's one of the most effective non-invasive procedures in professional skincare. Here's an open look at its strengths and limitations, so you know exactly what to expect and when an alternative might make more sense.

Your benefits with
Microneedling

  • Target acne scars and pigmentation directly — at the dermal level
  • Collagen induction for lasting skin tightening and a fuller, denser complexion
  • Zero downtime — back to your everyday routine within 24 hours
  • More affordable in a cosmetic studio setting (79–129 €) compared to a medical clinic (from 250 €)
  • Can be combined with Aquafacial (beforehand) or Microdermabrasion (at least 2 weeks apart)

When Microneedling
isn't the right fit

  • Not suitable for active acne with inflammation, a Rosacea flare-up, Couperose, or a herpes outbreak — for Couperose and sensitive skin, our Nanoneedling is the needle-free, gentle alternative
  • Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding; if you're on blood thinners, please check with your doctor first
  • Deep scars or pronounced wrinkles call for medical-grade Microneedling — we'll honestly refer you to a dermatologist
  • For lasting scar and wrinkle correction, a course of Treatments is key — a single session delivers glow, not a permanent structural change

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about our treatments, prices, and appointment booking.

Microneedling is available in five variations. The introductory treatment (45 minutes, one-time offer for new clients) and the eye area treatment (45 minutes) each start at 79 €. The regular facial treatment is 99 € (45 minutes), face and neck 109 € (60 minutes), and face, neck, and décolleté 129 € (75 minutes). All options are clearly listed in our online booking system — no hidden costs.

Yes — for the right indications. The Dermapen creates controlled micro-injuries in the dermis, triggering your skin's own collagen induction therapy: fibroblasts synthesize new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Its effectiveness for acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, and pigmentation is dermatologically recognized — multiple clinical studies confirm the collagen induction effect of Microneedling. A course of 3–6 sessions delivers lasting results that continue to build over weeks.

Microneedling — as collagen induction therapy (CIT) — is a dermatologically recognized procedure for scar treatment, wrinkle reduction, and pore refinement. Professional Microneedling in a studio setting works in the upper dermis — sufficient for cosmetic indications. For deeper scars, medical diagnoses, or complex skin conditions, we recommend consulting a dermatologist beforehand. We make no medical claims, but we'll always be honest with you about the limits of what we offer.

Not at all — quite the opposite. The classic age range for Microneedling is between 30 and 60, when collagen loss, fine lines, and skin laxity become increasingly visible. From age 18 onwards, Microneedling is also used successfully to treat acne scars. More important than your age is your skin type: active inflammation, Rosacea, or pregnancy rule out a treatment — not how old you are.

Some redness right after the treatment is completely normal and usually fades within 24–48 hours. Your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays for 7 days — SPF 50+ sunscreen is a must during this time. Microneedling isn't suitable if you have active acne with inflammation, a Rosacea flare-up, Couperose, a herpes outbreak, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are taking blood thinners. A single session won't be enough for lasting scar or wrinkle correction — a course of Treatments is what you need for that.

For an instant glow and a first improvement in your skin's texture, one session does the trick. For lasting correction of acne scars, fine lines, and pigmentation, we recommend a course of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart — the results build cumulatively, and full collagen maturation takes around 3 months. After that, one session per quarter or every six months is enough to keep things looking great.

Cosmetic Microneedling in a studio setting (like here at Sanft & Schön) works with needle depths reaching the upper dermis — effective for acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, and pigmentation spots. Non-invasive, no anaesthesia, 79–129 €. Medical Microneedling at a clinic uses greater needle depths and potentially radiofrequency — suited for deeper scars and more complex concerns, from 250 €. The right choice depends on how deep your concern goes — and we'll give you an honest steer.

Microneedling works with needles in the dermis and stimulates collagen production — highly effective for acne scars, wrinkles, and skin tightening. Microdermabrasion exfoliates with a diamond-tip head at the surface only — great for texture, pores, and an instant glow. For deeper corrections, Microneedling is the better choice; for a quick surface glow or as a gentler introductory treatment, Microdermabrasion is well worth it. Both treatments complement each other nicely — just leave at least two weeks in between.

Microneedling uses fine needles reaching into the upper dermis, triggering collagen induction through controlled micro-injuries — ideal for acne scars, stretch marks, and pronounced wrinkles. Nanoneedling with the nanoGLOW 3D system is needle-free and works purely at the epidermal level — using nanoTIPS, EGS, and radiofrequency. It's particularly well-suited for Couperose, Rosacea, and sensitive skin, where Microneedling isn't an option. We offer both treatments — and we'll figure out which one suits you best in your initial consultation. The price range is the same for both (€79 to €129).
