9-Pin Cartridge

9-Pin Cartridge

Precision in a small footprint. The compact 9-needle head lets you work on one spot at a time, so it suits individual acne scars, small stretch marks and expression lines such as those above the upper lip. With fewer needles, each one meets less resistance, giving cleaner, more controlled treatment on uneven or scarred skin.

Helps improve the look of: scars, including acne scars; small stretch marks; fine expression lines.

Best areas: Individual scars and marks, upper lip and small targeted areas. Not for use around the eyes.

Available in packs of 5 or 10 sterile, individually sealed, single-use cartridges designed exclusively for the Olapen.

How it works

The compact 9-needle head is built for precise, targeted treatment of small areas, such as individual acne scars, small stretch marks and expression lines above the upper lip.

Each pass creates thousands of tiny, controlled micro-channels in the skin. These prompt your skin's natural repair process, including the production of new collagen. Results build gradually over a course of sessions spaced weeks apart. With fewer needles, each one meets less resistance, giving clean, controlled treatment on uneven or scarred skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can Olapen help improve?

Olapen supports microneedling treatments for concerns such as fine lines, uneven skin texture and certain acne scars. It can also be used for scalp microneedling as part of a hair-care routine. Results vary.

How does Olapen work?

Olapen uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating its natural repair response and collagen production. Interchangeable cartridges allow for different skin and scalp treatments.

How soon will I notice results?

Some improvements in skin appearance may become noticeable after several weeks. More substantial changes can require multiple treatments over several months. Results depend on the concern, treatment and individual response.

Can I use Olapen for both my face and scalp?

Yes. Olapen supports both facial and scalp treatments using the appropriate cartridges and settings. Always follow the instructions for your treatment area.

What's the difference between microneedling and nanoneedling?

Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled punctures in the skin. Nanoneedling works more superficially and is generally used for surface-level skin care rather than deeper collagen stimulation.

Is Olapen easy to use at home?

Olapen features a cordless design, adjustable settings and interchangeable cartridges. Read the instructions before use and seek professional guidance before performing needle-based treatments at home.

How often should I microneedle?

Frequency depends on the cartridge, needle depth and your skin's recovery. Allow sufficient healing time between sessions and follow the recommended treatment instructions.

Does microneedling hurt?

You may experience discomfort, redness or sensitivity during and after treatment. The sensation depends on the treatment area, needle depth and individual sensitivity.

Can Olapen help with thinning hair?

Scalp microneedling may support certain hair-loss treatments. Research into its benefits is ongoing, and hair regrowth is not guaranteed.

Are the cartridges reusable?

Needle cartridges are single-use and should be safely disposed of after each treatment. Never reuse or share needle cartridges.

What's included with my Olapen?

Your order includes the Olapen device, two 9-pin cartridges, a USB charging cable and an instruction manual.

How long will delivery take?

Delivery typically takes 5–10 business days from the date you order.

What if I need to return my order?
