Microneedling with SkinPen in Zurich - Best results with alestetics
Microneedling is one of the most effective methods of skin rejuvenation and is becoming increasingly popular in Zurich. But which technology delivers the best results?
Among the best-known devices are the SkinPen and the Dermapen - both of which rely on proven collagen induction therapy. While both methods have their advantages, at alestetics we deliberately choose the SkinPen because of its FDA approval, gentle application and high precision.
In this article, you will find out what microneedling can do and why we chose SkinPen.
Microneedling & collagen induction therapy - What's behind it?
Microneedling is based on collagen induction therapy (CIT), a method that uses ultra-fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. Sounds unusual at first, but has an enormous effect:
✔ The skin reacts to these stimuli with increased production of collagen and elastin.
✔ Collagen provides firmness, elastin provides elasticity - both decrease with age.
✔ The result: firmer skin, fewer wrinkles and a more even complexion.
This technique is ideal for treating wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation marks, stretch marks and enlarged pores.
But which device offers the best results?
SkinPen vs. Dermapen - What are the differences?
FDA approval: SkinPen sets the standard
The SkinPen is the first and only microneedling device with FDA approval. This means that it has been tested in extensive clinical studies and confirmed as safe and effective.
The Dermapen is also a professional microneedling device that is used in many practices around the world. Although it does not have FDA approval, it still meets high quality and hygiene standards.
Precision and hygiene: both appliances impress
Both SkinPen and Dermapen use sterile, disposable surgical needles that can be customized. Hygiene is the top priority for both devices.
The difference lies in the technology: SkinPen uses a specially developed cartridge that makes it impossible to reuse the needles, which offers additional safety.
Treatment experience & recovery time
Both devices work with adjustable needle depths to adapt the treatment to different skin needs.
- SkinPen is characterized by its gentle vibration, which makes the treatment more pleasant and allows the skin to regenerate more quickly.
- Dermapen's technology offers deeper penetration, which allows for more intensive treatment in some cases, but can lead to a slightly longer recovery time.
So it all depends on your personal skin needs - both devices are high-quality solutions for effective microneedling.
Who is microneedling with SkinPen suitable for?
Microneedling is a versatile method for improving skin structure. It is particularly effective for
- Fine lines and wrinkles - Collagen induction tightens the skin.
- Acne scars - Scars fade through natural cell regeneration.
- Hyperpigmentation & sun damage - the skin tone is evened out.
- Stretch marks - The skin gains elasticity and resilience.
- Enlarged pores - the skin becomes finer and more even.
SkinPen is a proven method for all those who are looking for gentle but effective skin rejuvenation.

Both SkinPen and Dermapen are professional microneedling devices with impressive results. But at alestetics in Zurich, we opted for SkinPen because:
