SkinPen® is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device designed to stimulate your skin's natural healing process for smoother, healthier, more youthful-looking skin. By creating thousands of precise microchannels, this treatment boosts collagen and elastin production to improve overall skin quality over time.
SkinPen is ideal for improving:
• Acne scars
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin texture
• Enlarged pores
• Mild pigmentation concerns
• Overall skin tone and firmness
Does it hurt?
With minimal physical discomfort, most clients are able to do the procedure without numbing cream and without any noticeable pain. There is no lingering discomfort, and we have a number of strategies we employ to minimize discomfort during treatment. Post-procedure, most people report a “tight” feeling in their skin.
Who can do this treatment?
As microneedling treatments are minimally invasive, they are also safe for all skin types and tones.
If you are allergic to stainless steel or have any underlying condition that significantly impairs your immune system, you should avoid treatment. Examples include but are not limited to active radiation or chemotherapy, uncontrolled diabetes, chronic inflammatory skin disease, Accutane in the past 2 years, hemophilia or similar bleeding disorder. We also discourage treatments for those who are pregnant or nursing.
How long before I can expect to see results?
Though neocollagenesis (the production of new collagen) can take several weeks, it is not abnormal to notice an improvement in the quality and appearance of your skin within the first 24 hours. After 2-3 treatments a thicker more robust, collagen filled cellular matrix will produce more consistent and noticeable improvement. And 6 or more treatments may be recommended for scarring, laxity and wrinkles.
The skin will continue to remodel over a period of 6 months.
Is there down time?
Most clients experience a few days of redness and mild sensitivity. A series of treatments spaced 4 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. SkinPen treatments should not be scheduled within 2 weeks of a major event due to expected downtime.
