Dermapen Microneedling HIP DIP in Mirdif, Dubai uses fine medical needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin of the hip dip. Your body then repairs them with fresh collagen.
Hip dips are skeletal
The dip marks where your femur meets your pelvis. Because it follows bone rather than fat, almost everyone has one. No exercise removes it, so we set that expectation before any treatment begins.
Device-based needling, and what that means
A motorised needling device moves a sterile cartridge at a fixed speed and depth. Because the stroke is consistent, coverage stays even across the whole area. Hand-held rollers cannot match that control, which is why we use a medical device instead.
We change the cartridge for every patient and every session. Sterility is not negotiable on body skin, since the areas we treat carry a higher bacterial load than the face.
How it works
The device moves at a fixed depth matched to the thickness of skin in the area. Because each channel closes within hours, the surface recovers quickly while the deeper remodelling continues for months. Dr Sarah treats in overlapping passes, so no strip of skin is left untreated.
Needling does not remove tissue. Instead it injures the dermis just enough to restart collagen production. Since that process runs on your own biology, results appear slowly and build steadily rather than arriving on the day.
What it will not do
Needling adds no volume. If your concern is shape rather than texture, this treatment will disappoint you and we will say so at consultation.
This treatment does little for deep cellulite dimpling, because the fibrous bands causing it sit well below needle reach.
How the appointment runs
We cleanse the area and apply topical anaesthetic for about forty minutes. Then Dr Sarah treats in overlapping passes. Finally we apply a calming serum and a protective barrier before you leave.
After numbing, the treatment itself takes roughly twenty to thirty minutes depending on the area. You will feel pressure and a scratching sensation. Most patients find it uncomfortable rather than painful.
Who we cannot treat
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Active infection, eczema or psoriasis in the area
- A history of keloid scarring
- Isotretinoin within the last six months
- Bleeding disorders or anticoagulant therapy without clearance
- Recent tanning or sunburn over the area
Recovery and aftercare
- Expect redness like mild sunburn for two to three days
- Cleanse gently and moisturise twice daily
- Apply sunscreen to exposed treated skin for four weeks
- Avoid pools, saunas and the gym for seventy-two hours
- Pause retinoids, scrubs and acids for one week
Risks we discuss before you book
Redness, swelling and pinpoint bleeding are expected on the day. Temporary darkening can follow in deeper skin tones, so we treat conservatively and insist on sun protection. Infection is uncommon, although you should call us about spreading redness, pus or fever rather than waiting.
What decides your final price
This treatment starts from AED 1,399. Nevertheless the figure you pay depends on your assessment rather than a price list, because the variables below change the total.
- Number of sessions in the course
- Whether we combine needling with serums or injectables
- Whether maintenance sessions form part of the plan
- Skin thickness, which changes the protocol

Frequently asked questions
Is hip dip the same treatment under different names?
Patients search for this as hip dip and violin hip. All of those words describe the same area, so the treatment itself does not change with the wording.
How much does this cost in Mirdif, Dubai?
Treatment starts from AED 1,399. Because the area and the number of sessions vary between patients, Dr Sarah confirms your full plan in writing after assessing you.
When will I see results?
First changes appear around eight weeks, with continued improvement for six months. Collagen remodels slowly, so early assessment misleads.
How many sessions will I need?
Typically four to six, spaced four weeks apart. Mature marks and thicker skin usually need the upper end of that range.
Is it painful?
We apply topical anaesthetic for forty minutes beforehand. Most patients describe pressure and heat rather than sharp pain.
Who should not have this treatment?
We do not treat during pregnancy or breastfeeding, over active infection, or where a keloid history makes the area risky. Dr Sarah screens you fully at consultation.
Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, provided we treat conservatively. Temporary darkening is the main risk, so sun protection afterwards matters a great deal.
Is there any downtime?
You can return to desk work the same day. However we ask you to pause the gym, cycling and saunas for the period we specify at your visit.
