MICRO-NEEDLING
DermaFrac™ is a new, exciting alternative for skin rejuvenation therapy offered by Kassir Dermatology for patients in the Dallas area. (SEE VIDEO BELOW)
DermaFrac™ is a patent-pending, dermal micro-channeling system that offers simultaneous delivery of infused ingredients in a virtually painless, minimal downtime treatment that can be administered by a medical professional.
It is similar to hand-held dermal needling with the added benefit of simultaneous active infusion of topicals without anesthesia. With DermaFrac™ it is now possible to deliver high-grade active ingredients near the dermal layer like never before – and get better results.
This treatment can infuse anti-aging peptides, skin lighteners, hyaluronic acid moisturizers, acne treatments and more.
For some types of scars, we also offer hand held microneedling and other vertical needling devices.

DermaFrac™: An Innovative New Treatment ⠀
The precision-controlled DermaFrac™ hand piece pulls the skin under vacuum into contact with hundreds of micro-needles that painlessly penetrate through the epidermis and into the upper dermis.
DermaFrac™ micro-channels create pathways for introducing the infusion solution into the area of the skin that is most beneficial to the natural rejuvenating process.
The depth of the needles on the DermaFrac™ hand piece has been carefully selected so that the channels are created near the dermal-epidermal junction and just above capillaries and nerve endings.
This ensures minimal to no bleeding or pain. Plus, the specially formulated viscosity and molecular size of DermaFrac’s™ topical solutions help to further enhance the treatment.

Is there any downtime after the procedure?
No. You can return to your normal activities immediately following the procedure, including applying cosmetics. It is common to experience some pinkness or redness, but this should fade fairly quickly. It is highly recommended to minimize sun exposure for several days and apply sunscreen daily. You should avoid waxing or using any scrubs, peels, or astringent products to the treated area 3-4 days prior to or after the treatment.
How often should one get treatments?
It is recommended to receive a treatment every two weeks followed by maintenance treatments every one to two months.
Is microneedling painful?
Generally, it is not painful at all. Some patients have some mild discomfort, like mild prickling sensation, depending on one's sensitivity and needle length.
Are there different types of needling devices?
There are many different needling devices. At Kassir Dermatology in Dallas, Texas, we may use or multiple different devices on the same patient. After you are evaluated by Dr. Kassir, he will formulate an individualized treatment plan for your skin and specific indications. We use hand-held needling devices, needling with simultaneous infusion, and needling "pens" or a combination depending on the patient's specific condition.

Cost can vary, depending on the area being treated, the specific indication(s), and the number of treatments. Call our office for more details.
