Designed to work without heat or stress — SkinPen uses fine needles to create micro-openings in the skin that naturally stimulate the body’s collagen and elastin production. This minimally invasive treatment improves the appearance of acne scars, fine lines & wrinkles, appearance of pores, neck lines, and can improve tone and texture of skin.
To achieve the best results, a series of multiple treatments spaced approximately four weeks apart is recommended. After completing your initial series, maintenance treatments will help sustain your results and keep your skin looking its best. Your provider will be able to tailor a plan based on your specific skin goals.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
SkinPen microneedling treatments are designed to be as comfortable as possible. A numbing cream is applied before the procedure to minimize discomfort, and most patients describe the sensation as light pressure or a mild buzzing.
After treatment, you may experience some redness and a feeling similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a 24-48 hours. Minimal flaking of the skin, dryness, swelling, and pinpoint bruising in bony areas of the face also can occur, and typically resolve within a few days.
Tinted SPF or makeup can be worn 24 hours post treatment to conceal any redness in the skin. Excessive heat, prolonged direct sun exposure, and excessive sweating needs to be avoided for 72 hours post treatment.
Be sure to stop use of your exfoliant/retinol products 3-5 days prior to treatment, and no Botox/fillers less than 14 days prior to treatment.
