Why it worked
The video uses a clear 'before and after' visual transformation, which is a highly effective format for skincare and beauty products to demonstrate efficacy without needing a spoken pitch.
Summary
The creator demonstrates a year-long microneedling journey by showing herself using Dr. Pen devices on her skin. The video contrasts her skin's appearance in 2025 versus 2026 to highlight the results of consistent use.

Product placement
(a) Dr. Pen M8S: The creator uses this device on her face to perform microneedling. It acts as the primary tool for the skincare transformation shown. (b) Dr. Pen M9: The creator uses this device on her face in the second half of the video. It acts as the primary tool for the skincare transformation shown. Removing these would change the video entirely as they are the subject of the demonstration.
