These are standard replacement cartridges for use with the Hydra Pen H3 that we currently retail. They are also suitable for the H5, should you have ordered one of those models from elsewhere.

Only $3 per cartridge! That is the cheapest price per cartridge in New Zealand. If you find a lower price from a domestic retailer we will beat it. These more commonly retail for $6 per cartridge (and you're often obliged to buy in packs of 10). How are we so much cheaper? Volume, volume, volume - we buy in bulk from the factory so we can sell at a lower price (we also work on much slimmer margins).

Compatible Models:

Hydra Pen H3.
Hydra Pen H5 (as of July 2024 not yet released).

Cartridge Availability:

12 Needles: This cartridge is great for spot treating smaller areas. You can use it for a range of applications, but it is intended for working with deeper and more specific problems, such as acne scars. Note that the H3 microneedling pen is primarily intended to increase serum absorption and as such only goes to a maximum depth of 1.00mm. If you need a device with greater needle depth please see the Dr. Pen A9.

Nano HR: This cartridge is intended to aid in serum absorption. With many tiny, tightly packed needles you can increase absorption rates many times over. It also has some effect on fine lines and overall vibrance of your skin.

Features:

Three levels of liquid release (it is recommended not to use thin/watery serum as this can be released too quickly regardless of the setting chosen).
Protective cap for each cartridge.
Durable titanium needles.
Individual sterile packaging (it is recommended to sterilize before use regardless of this).

* The Hydra Pen H3 cartridges cannot be used with the older H2 model. The H2 requires using custom cartridges as it lacks depth control on the pen.

Hygiene & Safety:

It is recommended to use a new cartridge with each treatment. This is for hygiene primarily. A new cartridge also means sharper needles. However, if you intend on reusing your cartridges please sterilize them before and after use. Never share cartridges.

We recommend that you apply a skin rejuvenation cream/serum before, during or after the treatment. You should stick to serums which are not too strong (so no Retin-A). Hyaluronic acid is a safe option.

Change of Mind Returns & Warranty:

If upon receiving your order you are undecided about using it, please do not open the packaging. We can accept returns for products which remain sealed, but, for health reasons anything opened from its sealed packaging cannot be returned (as we cannot resell it). Upon return we will refund your order in full. This applies to change of mind returns.

The cartridge also comes with a one year warranty starting from the date of delivery. In case of a warranty claim we will replace or refund at our expense. Note that the cartridges are a consumable product, and the warranty will no longer apply after they are consumed (i.e. the needles become blunt through use).
