What is the Hyaluron Pen treatment?
The pen was actually first designed to eliminate the use of needles for those who suffer from diabetes, and has since been used by the beauty industry to allow for no needle fillers.
The pressure from the pen is strong enough to force the filler into the skin.
The active ingredient used, hyaluronic acid, rejuvenates and lifts the lip area, as well as stimulating collagen production.
This technique is supposed to be less abrasive than other procedures since there are no needles involved. The risk of bruising and swelling is also extremely low.
How the Hyaluron Pen Treatment Works
The Hyaluron Pen (also known as hyaluronic acid pen) is a small handheld medical device that is used to administer hyaluronic acid fillers into the face. This “pen” was originally created for diabetic patients to offer a needle-free, pain-free way to deliver insulin into the subcutaneous tissue.
The Hyaluron Pen works by creating enough pressure external to the tissue to “push” hyaluronic acid filler into the skin without using a needle. It is most commonly being used for lip injections.
Advantages of the Hyaluron Pen Treatment
With age, the hyaluronic acid levels become depleted, thus making our lips, forehead and overall face look less youthful.
Here are a few reasons why using the Hyaluron Pen as part of your beauty treatments regime could be advantageous:
- Hyaluronic acid is a natural chemical
- Significantly reduced pain and bruising
- Instant results
- No downtime
- Plumper and more hydrated lips
- Great for clients who suffer from trypanophobia (fear of needles)
Patients that may not be eligible for the treatment
Due to certain health conditions, some may not be allowed or may be evaluated further to take this treatment. This is for the protection of the health and safety of the patient.

How long does this treatment last?
