What Can You Expect?

SkinPen is a simple, comfortable, and effective treatment for skin rejuvenation. Most people see results in as few as three 30-minute sessions.

Before Treatment

• Your provider will gently cleanse your skin. Topical anesthesia may be administered to assure maximum comfort during the treatment.

During Treatment

• Skin Pen creates millions of controlled microchannels in the skin. This jump starts the production of collagen and elastin and encourages the release of growth factors that recruit and increase reparative cells. The result is a cascade of healing processes that can continue for months following your treatment.
• The SkinPen treatment lasts approximately 30 minutes. Depending on whether an anesthetic is used prior to treatment, your entire treatment session may last up to one hour- still plenty of time to schedule your treatment before work or during your lunch hour. Be sure to speak with your provider before you come to get an accurate estimate, so you know how to plan your visit.

After Treatment

• Your skin may initially appear slightly pink to red, similar to a mild sunburn. This is normal and should subside within 24 to 72 hours.
• Some people see rejuvenated skin after just one treatment, and results may continue to improve for three to six months following your last treatment.
  

SkinPen with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

SkinPen microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a cosmetic procedure that combines microneedling with the application of PRP to enhance skin rejuvenation. Here’s a breakdown of the two components:

1. Microneedling (SkinPen):
   • Procedure: Microneedling involves using the SkinPen Microneedling device, which contains fine needles. These needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, stimulating the body’s natural healing process.
   • Benefits: Microneedling can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and overall skin texture. It stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer and smoother skin.
2. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP):
   • Procedure: PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood. A small amount of blood is drawn, and it is then processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors.
   • Benefits: PRP is rich in growth factors, which play a crucial role in tissue repair and regeneration. When applied to the skin during microneedling, PRP can enhance the healing process, promote collagen production, and contribute to a more youthful and radiant complexion.

The combined procedure:

1. Preparation: Before the procedure, a small amount of blood is drawn from the patient.
2. Microneedling: The SkinPen or a similar device is used to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin.
3. PRP application: The concentrated PRP is then applied to the treated area, allowing the growth factors to penetrate the microchannels created by microneedling.
4. Healing process: The combination of microneedling and PRP stimulates the body’s natural healing response, promoting collagen and elastin production.
5. Results: Over time, patients may experience improvements in skin texture, tone, and elasticity.

Benefits of the combination:

• Improved collagen production.
• Enhanced skin texture and firmness.
• Reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Diminished acne scars.
• Overall skin rejuvenation.

It’s important to note that results can vary, and multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal outcomes.
