SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen is the first microneedling device cleared by the FDA and shown to be clinically effective and safe to treat facial acne scars and fine lines and wrinkles on the neck. The procedure causes small microchannels in your skin which stimulates the body’s wound healing process and increases collagen and elastin.

Here are some frequently asked questions about SkinPen:
How does SkinPen work?
SkinPen works by stimulating your skin’s natural healing processes. It features a set of fine, sterile needles that create controlled micro skin punctures, which trigger your body’s natural collagen and elastin production. As the skin heals, it becomes firmer, smoother, and more rejuvenated. SkinPen is a safe and effective way to address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven texture.
What are the benefits of SkinPen?
The benefits of SkinPen are numerous and can significantly improve the appearance and health of your skin. Some key advantages include improved skin texture, enhanced collagen production, reduced pore size and even skin tone.SkinPen has a short recovery period, making it a convenient option for busy individuals.
What is the procedure like?
After your initial consultation, we start your SkinPen procedure by applying a numbing cream to the treatment area, to ensure your comfort during the procedure. Using the SkinPen device, we will gently move it across the skin’s surface, creating controlled micro-punctures that stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. Following the treatment, you may experience temporary redness and mild swelling, akin to a sunburn, but this typically subsides within a day or two. We will offer you personalized post-treatment care instructions, which might involve sun avoidance and the use of recommended skincare products.
What areas can be treated with SkinPen?
SkinPen is a versatile treatment that can be used on various parts of the body such as the face, neck, chest, and hands. SkinPen can also be used to improve the appearance of scars, including surgical and traumatic scars.
What can I expect after the treatment?
After a SkinPen treatment, you can expect some immediate and ongoing changes in your skin. In the short term, you may experience redness and mild swelling, similar to a sunburn, which typically lasts for a day or two. Most individuals can resume their regular activities within a day or two post-treatment. Over the following weeks and months, you’ll notice a gradual improvement in skin texture, tone, and the reduction of fine lines and scars. We may recommend specific products to enhance and maintain your results. It’s essential to protect your skin from the sun and follow their post-treatment care instructions for the best outcome.
