The microneedling procedure for your skin is minimally invasive. A thin needle is used to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin by your healthcare provider. As a result of the damage, your skin produces more collagen and elastin as it heals. Your skin is kept firm and smooth by these proteins.

The majority of people get microneedling on their faces, but you can also get it on your legs, back, neck, and other areas where your skin is damaged or aging. To achieve your desired results, you may need multiple treatments. As microneedling penetrates deeper into the skin than alternatives such as microdermabrasion, it may be more effective at treating acne scars.

Using the SkinPen Precision System, microscopic punctures are made in the outer layers of the skin. Healing punctures trigger the remodeling process, improving acne scars’ appearance.

The SkinPen® Precision System is a microneedling device and accessories designed to improve the appearance of acne scars on the face in adults 22 or older. With SkinPen Precision, you can remodel your skin by creating temporary microscopic channels in your skin. In order to elicit your body’s natural wound healing cascade, SkinPen Precision creates millions of controlled microchannels in the skin.

You can improve the appearance and texture of your skin with microneedling. Other skin concerns can be minimized, such as scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, etc. A facial rejuvenation procedure that uses heat, light, or lasers may cause skin discoloration. As a result, microneedling is ideal for people with darker skin tones.

SkinPen’s needles can be adjusted to varying depths, allowing the treatment plan to be tailored to the individual’s needs and aesthetic goals, making it useful for improving the appearance of shallow fine lines and acne scars. As its stainless steel needles are vertical, SkinPen delivers consistent micro-injuries as set by the clinician automatically. For added safety and economy, disposable needle cartridges are sterile and single-use.

The results of microneedling are long-lasting and transformative and associated downtime is minimal. Microneedling might cause your skin to burn or feel tight in the days and weeks following treatment. The use of moisturizer can also help people who experience dry, flaky skin as a result of the procedure. The procedure of microneedling is an outpatient one, so you can go home afterward.

For up to five days, your skin may be red and swollen. Irritation and discomfort can be reduced with an ice pack. The day after the procedure, most people can wear makeup, but they should remain out of the sun until their skin has healed. Microneedling usually requires multiple treatments, usually three to eight weeks apart. You can expect to see results in three to six months. The procedure may need to be repeated once a year for maintenance.

By stimulating collagen production through microneedling, skin concerns can be treated minimally invasively. Skin is composed of collagen and elastin, two proteins that provide support and elasticity. These fibers break down as we age, and the process leads to wrinkles. Skin regeneration can help you look more youthful by restoring collagen and elastin. Those who want to reduce the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks may benefit from this treatment.

SkinPen has been clinically proven to be effective for both men and women of all skin types. SkinPen microneedling may be right for you if you have wrinkles, acne, scars, age spots, or large pores.
