SkinPen Microneedling

What is Microneedling?

Medical microneedling of the skin uses the body's natural healing process to stimulate collagen and elastin production. The treatment creates controlled depth micro-injuries to the skin, which helps to lift and rejuvenate the skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and minimize pores, stretch marks, and scars. The microneedling procedure's microchannels also allow optimal absorption of topical products, enhancing their effects in the skin's deeper layers.

What does microneedling feel like?

The procedure feels similar to sandpaper across the skin. Expect areas around the eyes and forehead to be slightly more sensitive, but the short-time discomfort is well worth the results.

How long will a Microneedling take?

Including the application of numbing cream, an entire full-face procedure will take 45 minutes.

When will results be seen after microneedling?

Patients typically notice an immediate glow within the first few days, but the most visible improvement will take about two to four weeks and continue improving for three months.

How many treatments will be needed?

A series of three to four treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is ideal for optimal results. Some conditions like deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks, and acne scars will need 6 – 8 treatments.
