In recent years, SkinPen has grown wildly popular as the breakthrough treatment to combat the appearance of:

  • Wrinkles
  • Fine Lines
  • Acne Scars
  • Stretch Marks
  • Skin Texture Challenges

If you’re sick of spending money on expensive anti-aging and skin correcting products or nervous about invasive procedures, you have a new option!

SkinPen micro needling is a skin rejuvenation procedure that helps to improve your skin’s appearance by stimulating its natural ability to produce collagen and repair itself.

The SkinPen microneedle device is a non-invasive but effective procedure to tackle your skin concerns.

What to Expect

The SkinPen uses tiny needles to create controlled “damage” in the form of micro incisions that stimulate the body’s collagen production as the natural defense to repair and rejuvenate the skin. The collagen works to tighten and contract the skin.

The best part? This non-invasive procedure takes less than an hour! Meaning little to no downtime and minimal side effects afterward.

Most patients experience a sunburn-esque pinkness and mild swelling, however, most people don’t need to take time off of work or even hide their faces after the procedure.

Results can be immediate but expect your skin to continue to progress over the next several weeks. Your skin may even continue to improve for the next 3-6 months.

How does all of this sound? If you’ve never heard of SkinPen before it may seem a little overwhelming, but we’ve got some more exciting information to help convince you.

1. Effective for All Skin Types

Because SkinPen doesn’t impact the epidermis (where the skin pigment resides), it can be used on all skin types. Our certified esthetician can answer any specific questions and provide more information on this.

2. It’s Versatile

SkinPen can be used to improve any number of skin concerns, such as the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks and acne scars.

SkinPen can be used on many different body parts, including:

  • Face and Neck
  • Décolletage
  • Arms and Hands
  • Legs and Abdomen

SkinPen needles adjust to different lengths, allowing your SkinPen provider to customize your procedure based on skin’s thickness and your specific needs.

3. It’s Natural

As we described earlier, SkinPen is a micro needling tool that uses sharp needles to create micro holes in your skin signaling your body to react naturally and produce collagen and elastin.

We are not injecting any substances, chemicals, heat, toxins, nor does it burn or remove layers of your skin or paralyze your facial muscles.

SkinPen is considered by many as a more gentle approach to skincare rather than alternative treatments like chemical peels microdermabrasion, and various laser-assisted techniques.

These other procedures can be harsh, require longer recovery periods, or cause hyperpigmentation in patients with certain skin types or if performed by unqualified technicians.
