SkinPen Microneedling
As the very first FDA-cleared microneedling device, SkinPen is trusted by leading dermatologists, aestheticians, and other skincare professionals. Three steps in as little as thirty minutes targets facial acne scars and neck wrinkles, for smoother, more radiant, younger-looking skin.
Who is a good candidate? Who is NOT a candidate?
Good candidates for SkinPen micro-needling include individuals with concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, or mild skin laxity. Unsuitable candidates for SkinPen micro-needling may include individuals with active skin infections, open wounds, or significant dermatological conditions in the treatment area. Those with a history of poor wound healing, keloid scarring, or certain skin conditions may also not be suitable.
How is the treatment done?
SkinPen micro-needling is performed using a handheld device with fine, sterile needles. The device is gently applied to the skin's surface, creating controlled micro-injuries. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural wound healing processes, leading to increased collagen and elastin production.
