. The pen uses delicate microneedles to create a series of microscopic channels in the surface of the skin, kick-starting the body’s natural healing process. Those who schedule a SkinPen™ session should experience little to no discomfort. The treatment is often used in conjunction with a customized selection of topical treatments designed to provide you with your ideal results.

Microneedling can be used on any skin tone or complexion, providing a highly versatile treatment option that can be appropriate for the majority of clients.

How Does Microneedling Work?

The microscopic channels created with the SkinPen™stimulate the natural healing factors within the skin, leading to an accelerated rate of collagen and elastin production across the entire treatment area. The channels also allow various skin treatments, like powerful skin serums, to penetrate more deeply, increasing the overall effectiveness of each application.

In short, microneedling combines your natural, accelerated healing process with topical treatments that deliver proven results.

What Are the Results?

Microneedling can be used to produce a healthier and more youthful-looking complexion as collagen remodels and irregularities, like scars or uneven texture, fade away. After treatment, the treated areas may be slightly red, though redness normally subsides within a few days.

While some improvements may be seen quickly, it may take multiple treatments to achieve the full results. Since each treatment plan is customized to the needs of the client, information regarding your specific results will be covered by your medical aesthetician prior to your treatment.
