As we age, our skin undergoes significant changes, and one of the most noticeable is the reduction in collagen production. Collagen is the protein responsible for keeping the skin firm, smooth, and elastic. When collagen production slows down, the skin becomes more prone to developing fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging. This also limits the skin’s ability to repair itself, making it more vulnerable to scarring and discoloration.

Microneedling is a powerful and minimally invasive treatment that addresses these skin concerns by using a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing process and encourage the production of new collagen and elastin. This process helps to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and fade acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and other skin discolorations.

Stimulate Collagen Growth

SkinPen Microneedling is a cutting-edge, medical-grade procedure that can only be performed at licensed medical aesthetic practices. Sometimes called microchanneling or microtherapy, this non-laser treatment is considered one of the best solutions for addressing scarring, including acne scars, by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production.

During a microneedling session, tiny, controlled micro-injuries are created in the skin using the SkinPen device. These microscopic channels trigger the skin’s natural repair process, boosting collagen and elastin production, which leads to healthier, firmer skin over time. Additionally, these channels enhance the absorption of topical products, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin and be more effective.

The microneedling process accelerates the skin’s healing, helping to reverse sun damage, improve scarring, reduce pore size, and even out skin tone and texture. A series of SkinPen Microneedling treatments provides long-term benefits, leaving your skin smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking.

SkinPen MicroNeedling offers a natural solution that is safe and effective for all skin types and improves skin’s appearance through the body’s own healing and collagen production abilities. SkinPen MicroNeedling utilizes rotary needles and adjusting depths to create microchannels in your skin. By puncturing the skin’s surface with the tiny needles, the SkinPen MicroNeedling stimulates healing and collagen production so that new skin cells repair old blemishes from wrinkles to hyperpigmentation to scars.

The unique design of SkinPen MicroNeedling allows for individualized settings, which makes the treatment quite comfortable for our patients. The pain is very similar to a deep microdermabrasion treatment but with many more aesthetic benefits.

The number of treatments required will be determined by your skincare professional based upon your individual treatment goals and the health of your skin. You will see results in one treatment. However, it is recommended that most patients receive a series of 3 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart for optimal results. For patients with very deep wrinkles, advanced photoaging, stretch marks, or very deep acne scars, the recommendation is to receive 6 sessions at 4 to 6 week intervals.

Immediately following the treatment, you will notice a healthy pink glow. We will recommend specific product protocols to aid your skin’s natural healing process. Total healing time depends on the severity of the damaged skin and the depth of the repair process required. On average, patients are lightly pink for two to three days. Some patients heal completely in 24 hours.

You will notice healthier-looking skin immediately. However, the natural repair process of your own skin continues to progress over the course of a month. Dermal collagen remodeling takes place over time, and it will continue to improve for up to 6 months after your final treatment.

SkinPen MicroNeedling is extremely versatile and can be used on all parts of the body including the face, neck, décolletage, arms, hands, legs, abdomen, and back. This versatility makes SkinPen MicroNeedling especially helpful when addressing acne scars on the back and stretch marks on the body.

A sterile, disposable cartridge containing 12 tiny microneedles is attached to the tip of the pen. A thin layer of topical serum is applied to the skin, and the appropriate microchanneling depth of treatment is selected for a particular type of skin. Then the pen is glided across the targeted repair area in a gentle motion. The procedure typically takes 30 minutes depending upon the size of the area and the severity of skin damage.

One of the most exciting things about microneedling is that it can be used on all types of skin to address a wide range of problems, including any area requiring cell regeneration or an intense repair process.
