Needle Speed Guide - Dr. Pen Store

When it comes to microneedling, it's important to adjust your device's settings to the optimum level for the area of the skin that you're treating, as well as your skin concerns. This will ensure that you get the best result possible and your skin is kept comfortable during the process.

On your Dr. Pen Store device, you can adjust the speed of needle penetration, as well as the depth of the needle itself. Here, we're discussing the speed of the needles - but make sure to also take a look at our Needle Depth Guide before you get started microneedling. 

Most Dr. Pen Store microneedling pens have a speed range of 1-5. As a general rule, the faster you set the speed on your microneedling pen, the deeper the needle will penetrate into your skin.

If you're using the pen on your face or other sensitive areas, we recommend using a lower speed - this gives you a more precise control of the pen and its movements.

We also recommend starting off on a lower speed if you're new to microneedling, as this will allow you to get a sense of how the pen moves and get used to using the device. As you build up your control and confidence, you may then like to adjust the speed of the device accordingly. 

If you're microneedling on the body, you may wish to adjust the speed of the pen to be higher (for instance, when microneedling on stretch marks, deep scars or deep wrinkles).
