Dr. Pen M8S Face and Body Combo Cartridges (5-pack)
$27.00
This Dr. Pen M8S Combo Cartridge Pack is tailored for comprehensive face and body treatment, effectively addressing signs of aging, surgical and acne scars, pigmentation, as well as scarring and stretch marks on the body. It’s also beneficial for stimulating hair growth in those experiencing hair loss.
Designed as an all-encompassing kit for both facial and body skin concerns, this pack is your go-to solution.
The 12-pin Microneedle Cartridge is engineered to enhance the facial skin by diminishing fine lines, acne scars, and improving overall skin texture through collagen production stimulation.
The 36-pin Microneedle Cartridges are suitable for targeted body area skin concerns, such as:
- Acne scarring and other body scarring
- Surgical scars
- Stretch marks
- Body skin texture irregularities
- Hair loss issues
And if you really want to boost your microneedling results, try adding in some gentle nano needling sessions in between your microneedling treatments with the round nano cartridge.
Nano needling creates nanochannels for your face to better absorb your favourite skincare products AND it stimulates collagen production. (TIP: Pair nano needling with a Femvy Peptide Complex Serum).
Each pack contains 5 high-quality stainless steel cartridges for your Dr. Pen M8S Professional Microneedling Pen.
For Best Results:
- Schedule microneedling sessions every 4-6 weeks.
- Incorporate nanoneedling weekly, ideally between microneedling treatments, for enhanced results.
Key Features:
- The needles are crafted from high-quality stainless steel, suitable for a range of applications including surgical scars, deep wrinkles, and acne scarring.
- Cartridges are designed for single use to ensure maximum hygiene and efficacy.
- This pack is compatible with the new Dr. Pen M8S (note: device is sold separately).

Important: Microneedling cartridges must be sterilised before each use to ensure the treatment is safe and hygienic. It is essential to follow these steps carefully to ensure that the microneedling cartridges are properly sterilised. Here are the steps to sterilise microneedling cartridges:
- First, ensure that you have all the necessary equipment for sterilisation; gloves, isopropyl alcohol solution (70% or above) and a clean container to hold the solution.
- Put on your gloves to avoid contaminating the cartridges during the sterilisation process.
- Check on your cartridge; ensure the needles are in perfect condition (i.e. not bending) and remove any debris.
- Pour enough alcohol solution into the container and dip the cartridge needle into a sterilisation container, then soak for a couple of minutes.
- If you have alcohol solution in a spray model, you can spray it towards the needle head of the cartridge.
- Once the sterilisation is complete, allow the cartridge to air dry before using it.
- Finally, your cartridge is ready for use.
How to use
- To ensure there is no cross-contamination, cartridges must be sterilised before treatment.
- Fully tie back your hair, away from your face.
- Double-cleanse (cleanse and repeat), then wipe the skin clean with an alcohol wipe.
- Work in small areas and apply the serum (recommended: Femvy Hyaluronic Acid Serum) to each area before needling. This will help to ensure that the pen does not drag or pull on the skin.
- The recommended pattern to move the pen for best results is vertical, horizontal, and then diagonal in both directions. Repeat this motion over each area twice using light pressure and without dragging.
How to use nano needling
- Start by tying the hair to keep them away from the face. Wash the face using a cleanser to eliminate all makeup, dirt, oil, and other debris on the skin.
- Open the new nano cartridge and carefully attach it to the Dr. Pen device.
- Do not touch the tip of the disposable cartridges to prevent contamination.
- Apply a few drops of a hydrating serum (Femvy Hyaluronic Serum or Femvy Peptide Complex Serum) to the face just before working in small areas.
- Move the M8S microneedling pen in vertical, horizontal, and then diagonal directions.
- It is recommended to work in a grid to ensure that every area is treated well.
- Only put light pressure on the skin when using the device.

How to Use Microneedling Devices: A Comprehensive Guide
I. Preparation
Required Products:
- MTSPEN microneedling device (such as Dr. Pen A11, M8S, A9, or Hydra Pen H5)
- New microneedle cartridge (must be replaced for each use)
- Disinfecting alcohol solution (60% alcohol mixed with purified water)
- Cotton pads
- Facial cleanser
- Hyaluronic acid serum (recommended for microneedling treatment)
- Clean towel
- Optional: surgical gloves
- Optional: numbing cream (containing 5% lidocaine)
Pre-Treatment Preparation:
- Avoid Specific Substances: Refrain from taking anti-inflammatory medication, alcohol, or fish oil supplements for 3 days before treatment to reduce bleeding risk.
- Cleanse Your Face:
- Tie your hair back completely away from your face
- Thoroughly cleanse your face twice with your preferred cleanser to remove all traces of makeup and lotions
- Any dirt, oil, or stray hairs touching your skin can increase infection or irritation risk
- Apply Numbing Cream (Optional):
- If your skin is sensitive, use numbing cream containing 5% lidocaine
- Apply approximately half the tube to the treatment area
- Leave on for 20-30 minutes, then thoroughly remove
- Use 60% alcohol mixed with purified water or 0.1 chlorhexidine to wipe off any remaining numbing cream
- Removing the numbing cream ensures it won't enter the microchannels created during treatment
- Prepare Your Device:
- Ensure the device is fully charged or near a power source
- Sterilize the device surface and work area
- Keep alcohol readily available
- To avoid cross-contamination, don't touch anything other than your skin and device during treatment
- Consider pouring serum into a small bowl and applying with a brush to maintain hygiene
II. Microneedling Procedure
- Apply Serum:
- Apply hyaluronic acid serum to the treatment area to lubricate the skin
- The serum helps needles glide smoothly over the skin, preventing pulling
- Avoid using Vitamin C, retinol, exfoliants, or brightening ingredients during treatment as they may cause irritation
- Install the Cartridge:
- Ensure your hands are clean; wear gloves if preferred
- Open a new microneedle cartridge package and attach it to your device
- Do not touch the needle tips
- Adjust Needle Depth:
- Select your desired needle depth by rotating the dial on your device
- Recommended depths for different facial areas:
- Forehead: 0.25-0.5mm
- Around eyes: 0.15-0.25mm
- Cheeks: 0.5-1.0mm
- Chin/jawline: 0.5-1.0mm
- Nose: 0.25-0.5mm
- Upper lip: 0.25-0.5mm
- Neck: 0.5-1.0mm
- Body: 0.5-1.5mm (for fleshier areas)
- Perform Microneedling:
- Work in small areas, applying serum to the skin just before needling each section
- The recommended movement pattern is vertical, horizontal, then diagonal in both directions
- Work in a grid pattern so you know exactly which areas you have and haven't treated
- Use light pressure and keep the skin taut with your free hand
- Repeat this motion twice over each area
- Body Area Considerations:
- When treating body areas (such as legs or hands), avoid needling over bony parts (especially on legs)
- Only use 36-42 pin cartridges for body microneedling
- For legs, use 0.5mm needle depth
- For fleshier areas, depths up to 1.5mm can be used
III. Post-Microneedling Care
Immediate Aftercare:
- If desired, gently wash your face with lukewarm water
- Immediately apply hyaluronic acid serum to the treated area to provide hydration and soothe the skin
- Mild redness, swelling, and pinpoint bleeding after microneedling treatment are normal and nothing to worry about
- Avoid exercising/sweating or applying makeup for 24 hours
- Apply high-protection sunscreen when going outside
- If makeup is unavoidable, use products specifically designed for post-treatment or sensitive skin to avoid irritation
24 Hours After Treatment:
- Cleanse your face with a gentle cleanser and apply a nourishing moisturizer
- Avoid products containing fragrances, active ingredients (vitamin C, A/retinol), acids (lactic, AHA, BHA), physical scrubs, or toners that may cause irritation
- Your skin may experience mild swelling, bruising, peeling, and flaking. Minimize these effects by keeping the skin moisturized, which will reduce shedding and alleviate tightness
- Continue to avoid exercising, excessive sweating, swimming, or applying makeup for 24 hours
- Always apply high-protection sunscreen when outdoors and avoid prolonged sun exposure
48 Hours After Treatment:
- Optional: If you have dry/flaking skin, you can begin gently exfoliating to speed up recovery
- Do not use chemical or harsh physical exfoliants; opt for a washcloth with gentle pressure
- If your skin feels sensitive, do not exfoliate—the dryness and flaking will naturally subside
- Continue hydrating your skin morning and night
3-5 Days After Treatment:
- Continue applying high-protection sunscreen daily and avoid direct and extended sun exposure
- Focus your skincare routine on hydrating and moisturizing products
- Continue avoiding active ingredients, acids, scrubs, and toners
7+ Days After Treatment:
- You may return to your regular skincare routine
- Wait at least 4-6 weeks before your next microneedling treatment to allow full skin recovery
