Questions Buyers Ask Most

Clean the handle and cables with a medical wipe before and after use. Never reuse needle cartridges.

36 needle cartridges cover larger areas faster, while 12 needle heads suit smaller, precise areas. Both work well when used at the right depth.
How often can I use a home device?
Most home devices are used every 2 to 4 weeks. Follow the manufacturer interval to avoid over treating the skin.
