Microneedling Skinpen

SkinPen Microneedling is a safe and effective skin renewal treatment that uses tiny sterile needles to improve the appearance of your skin. It is the first FDA cleared microneedling device in the United States. SkinPen works by creating controlled micro injuries in the skin that trigger your body’s natural healing process. This process boosts collagen and elastin production, helping your skin become smoother, firmer, and more even. Many patients choose SkinPen to reduce acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and improve overall skin texture with minimal downtime.

How It Works

The SkinPen device has very fine, adjustable needles that gently penetrate the top layers of your skin. These tiny channels encourage the skin to repair itself by producing new collagen and elastin. The treatment activates three natural stages of healing: inflammation to clean the area, new cell growth, and long term tissue remodeling. Because it does not use heat or chemicals, it is safe for all skin types and tones and can be done any time of the year.

What It Improves

• Acne scars and other types of scarring

• Fine lines and wrinkles, especially on the neck

• Rough or uneven skin texture

• Large pores

• Dull or tired looking skin

• Mild skin laxity on the face and neck

The Treatment Procedure

• Consultation - Your provider examines your skin, reviews your medical history, and discusses your concerns and goals.

• Preparation - The skin is cleaned thoroughly and a numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable.

• Microneedling - Our provider gently moves the SkinPen device over the treatment area. The session usually takes 45 minutes depending on the size of the area.

• Aftercare - A soothing serum or hyaluronic acid is often applied right after to help with healing.

What to Expect During and After

• During the treatment - Most people feel only light pressure and a mild buzzing sensation.

• Right after - Your skin will look red, similar to a mild sunburn.

• First 24 to 48 hours - Redness and mild sensitivity are common. The skin may feel tight or slightly swollen.

• Days 2 to 7 - Redness fades and your skin starts to feel smoother.

• Full results - Improvements continue for several weeks as new collagen forms. Best results are usually seen after completing the full series of treatments.
