What Does Skinpen Do?

SkinPen microneedling is a small device that creates big transformations. Bring your beauty to the surface and boost your confidence with SkinPen.

Is Skinpen for Me?

  • SkinPen rejuvenates skin from the inside out for younger-looking skin
  • Results are natural, safe and effective for all skin tones and types
  • Jump-starts new collagen without heat or chemicals
  • Quick-and-easy with little to no downtime

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.

Is SkinPen the same as microneedling?


SkinPen and microneedling are related treatments, but they are not exactly the same. Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. It stimulates collagen production and enhances skin texture and tone. Microneedling is used to improve fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks.

SkinPen is a specific type of microneedling device. It’s an FDA-approved medical-grade microneedling pen that offers precision and consistency during the procedure. SkinPen uses disposable needle cartridges and adjustable needle depths. One of the key advantages of SkinPen microneedling is that it allows for customizable treatments based on your unique skin concerns.

What is SkinPen microneedling good for?

 
SkinPen microneedling is an effective and versatile treatment that can be used to address various skin concerns and improve your overall skin health. The procedure is particularly beneficial for:

Reducing fine lines and wrinkles – SkinPen stimulates collagen and elastin production, which minimizes the prominence of fine lines and wrinkles.
Treatment of acne scars – Microneedling effectively breaks down scar tissue to encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. With several sessions, SkinPen microneedling can lead to improved skin texture and reduce the visibility of stubborn acne scars.
Evening skin tone and texture – SkinPen evens out skin tone and texture by promoting the production of new skin cells. This also minimizes hyperpigmentation in treated areas.
Minimizing enlarged pores – This treatment tightens the skin and reduces the size of enlarged pores, leading to a more refined complexion.
Enhancing product absorption – The micro-channels created during the procedure enhance the absorption of topical skincare products, maximizing their effectiveness.

Furthermore, SkinPen microneedling is suitable for all skin types and can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands. It’s a safe and non-invasive treatment option to achieve smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin. It’s essential to consult a qualified skincare professional to determine if SkinPen microneedling is the right choice for your specific complexion goals.

How long does it take for the SkinPen to heal?


The healing process after a SkinPen microneedling treatment requires little downtime, as it’s quick and hassle-free. However, it’s normal to expect some redness, localized swelling, and minor discomfort immediately after the procedure. These side effects typically subside within 24 to 72 hours. In most cases, the skin will still appear slightly pink or flushed for a few more days.

In the first few days after the treatment, it’s essential to avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen diligently to protect the treated skin. It’s also recommended to refrain from using makeup or harsh skincare products for a few days to allow the skin to heal properly. Within a week, the majority of the visible side effects should have diminished. As the body naturally produces new collagen and elastin, you will notice a gradual improvement in skin texture and appearance over the weeks following your procedure.

How often should you do SkinPen microneedling?


The frequency of SkinPen microneedling treatments depends on a combination of factors, including your skin’s condition, treatment goals, and the advice of the skincare professional. Most people undergo a series of SkinPen treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. For skin rejuvenation and addressing mild concerns, 3 to 4 sessions are typically sufficient to achieve noticeable results. If you have more significant skin issues, such as acne scars or deep wrinkles, your skincare professional will likely recommend additional sessions for optimal improvement.
 
After completing the initial series of treatments, many people opt for maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months to sustain the benefits of the procedure and keep their skin looking radiant and youthful. It’s essential to work with an experienced professional to create a tailored treatment schedule that aligns with your skin goals. Our team will carefully assess your skin’s response to the treatment and adjust the schedule accordingly to ensure the most desirable outcomes for your skin’s health and appearance.
