What is SkinPen® Microneedling?

Microneedling is a safe, effective, and non-invasive treatment that has been used for decades to renew skin’s health and appearance. If your once-glowing complexion has been muddled by acne scars or telltale signs of aging like wrinkles, fine lines, or a dull complexion, this no-downtime treatment is safe and effective for all skin types, at any time of year. SkinPen® microneedling uses the body’s natural wound healing process to create beautiful, youthful-looking skin.

How does SkinPen® Microneedling work?

The SkinPen microneedling device creates hundreds to thousands of “micro” skin punctures per second to stimulate the skin’s natural wound healing process. This process results in the formation of two proteins predominantly responsible for the structure of the skin, namely collagen and elastin, and prompts tissue remodeling while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact. With short, 30-minute treatment sessions, we’re able to effectively treat many skin conditions and improve the appearance of your complexion.

Recovery & Results

There is little-to-no downtime associated with SkinPen microneedling treatments, and most patients can return to normal activities within 24 hours. You may experience a sensation similar to that of a sunburn immediately following treatment, but this should resolve quickly. Depending on your skin condition and the concern being addressed, a series of 3 treatments spaced 30 days apart may initially be recommended for best results. SkinPen microneedling effectively treats acne scars, wrinkles and fine lines, and improves skin texture and tone on all body parts, including the face, neck and décolletage. Following your treatment you can expect firmer, smoother skin, with results lasting up to 6 months.
