The Step Everyone Misses: Priming Your Micro-Infusion Device
When it comes to at-home micro-infusion skincare systems like Derminous GeneLift™, most users focus on the active ingredients—PDRN, peptides, niacinamide—and rightly so. These clinically backed compounds drive real anti-aging results[1] . But there’s one critical step that’s often overlooked, yet determines whether those potent actives actually reach your dermis: priming the micro-infusion device.






Priming isn’t just a “nice-to-have”—it’s the difference between patchy delivery and uniform, deep penetration. The Derminous system uses a 24K gold-plated micro-infusion tip made of medical-grade stainless steel, engineered for precise fluid dynamics[2] . However, air trapped in the micro-channels can block serum flow, leading to inconsistent application or wasted product.

Here’s how to do it right:
After attaching the sterile tip to the serum vial, shake the bottle vigorously 3–4 times upright, then invert it and gently press onto the back of your hand. If no serum appears, repeat shaking—this ensures the viscous, high-concentration formula fully saturates the micro-needle channels[3] . Skipping this? You might be gliding over your skin without delivering a single drop of those patented actives.

This simple ritual aligns with the brand’s core philosophy: precision, efficacy, and empowering home care. As Derminous states, “It’s not just skincare—it’s a ceremony of transformation”[4] . And like any effective ritual, every step matters—even the quiet one before the glow begins.
