Microneedling 101: Everything You Need to Know About Skin Pen

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is one of the most popular and effective treatments for skin rejuvenation. Using the state-of-the-art Skin Pen, we can safely and effectively address a host of common skin concerns with minimal downtime.

What is Microneedling? 

Microneedling uses a device with fine, sterile needles to create thousands of tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process might sound intimidating, but it’s the key to the treatment’s success. These micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural wound-healing response, which involves a surge in collagen and elastin production—the two essential proteins that keep your skin firm, smooth, and youthful.

The Skin Pen is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, known for its safety and precision.

What Can Skin Pen Treat? 

The beauty of microneedling is its versatility. It can improve:

  • Acne scars
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Enlarged pores
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Hyperpigmentation and sun spots
  • Stretch marks

What to Expect During Your Treatment 

First, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort. Then, the Skin Pen is gently glided across the treatment area. The entire process for the face typically takes about 30-45 minutes. Your skin will appear reddish, similar to a mild sunburn, for about 24-48 hours afterward.

For enhanced results, we can combine your Skin Pen treatment with Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), using the regenerative power of your body’s own growth factors found in our EZGel treatment.

See the Results for Yourself 

While you may see a glow shortly after treatment, the most significant results appear over the next 4-6 weeks as your skin produces new collagen. For optimal results, a series of 3-6 treatments is typically recommended.
