This At-Home Acne Injection Pen Could Revolutionise Treatment—But Dermatologists Have Reservations

Acne Injection Pen.

Having acne can be debilitating: this is something I learnt last year when I developed terrible hormonal breakouts at 33. So, innovation in dermatology is always welcome to patients, and the current tech garnering the most media traction is Indomo's ClearPen. A US-born at-home acne injection device, the brand's team hopes ClearPen will bridge the gap between professional and at-home acne treatments and revolutionise the space. But what do UK dermatologists think?

It's important to note that ClearPen is still in the early stages of development in the US and is not approved for use outside of clinical trials as it stands. Indomo is hoping this changes very soon, so it can reach acne sufferers in America. With this in mind, availability in the UK is not guaranteed and is certainly not expected in the immediate future. Here's what you need to know about ClearPen.
