SkinPen is the only microneedling device authorized by the FDA. Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation technique that helps reduce the appearance of aging, acne scarring, and aging skin.
The controlled micro-injuries caused by the SkinPen microneedling device stimulate the body’s natural wound healing process. Micro-injuries induce the release of hormones and growth factors, which result in reconstruction of tissue and the production of new collagen and elastin.
SkinPen is suitable for all ages and skin types of patients. If you are interested in reducing the appearance of fine lines, creases, and acne scars, as well as rejuvenating tired-looking skin and achieving overall skin tightening, SkinPen is the treatment for you!
Active facial infections, eczema, psoriasis, and atrophic scarring from chickenpox. In addition, individuals with open lesions should not utilize skinpen microneedling. This is due to the fact that it can lead to additional complications, such as infection and worsening of the incision or sore.
The SkinPen’s ability to adjust the depth of its needles makes it suitable for usage on a wide variety of areas of the body, including the face, neck, and chest.
You may feel some discomfort during a SkinPen treatment, but it won’t last long or be too uncomfortable. After a SkinPen treatment, most patients experience little pain at most. However, certain areas may be more sensitive than others, and this will vary from patient to patient.
For best results, we recommend scheduling four to six microneedling sessions, each one four to six weeks apart. However, the total number of treatments required is highly variable and will be based on your particular goals and skin’s current health.
Each patient will have a unique timetable for recovery. Typical symptoms include minor swelling and redness/pinkness (similar to a mild sunburn) for two to four days. Some individuals may have full recovery in just one day.
Patients may immediately observe healthier-looking skin. However, your skin’s natural repair process continues to progress over the course of several weeks. Damage sustained over an extended period of time will not vanish immediately.
Patients can typically resume their normal makeup routine 24 hours after a SkinPen procedure, depending on the treated area and procedure type.
SkinPen is not recommended for pregnant or women who are nursing.
