Microneedling With SkinPen®
reduce the signs of aging and enhance your skin's appearance!
What is SkinPen® Microneedling?
SkinPen® microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure used to improve the appearance of the skin. It involves the use of a handheld device called a SkinPen, which contains fine needles. These needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, stimulating the body’s natural wound healing process. As the skin heals, it produces collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that contribute to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

How does SkinPen® Microneedling Work?
SkinPen® microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that works by stimulating the skin’s natural healing processes. Here’s how it works:
Micro-Needling: During a SkinPen® treatment, a device equipped with fine, sterile needles is used to create thousands of tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries are very small and not visible to the naked eye.
Collagen and Elastin Production: The micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural wound-healing response. As the skin repairs itself, it produces increased amounts of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins responsible for maintaining the skin’s structure, firmness, and elasticity.
Skin Remodeling: Over time, the new collagen and elastin fibers replace damaged tissue, leading to skin remodeling. This process results in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
Product Absorption: The micro-channels created during the treatment also enhance the absorption of topical skincare products. This means that any serums or skincare products applied during or after the procedure can penetrate more deeply and be more effective.
Safe and Controlled: SkinPen® is a safe and controlled procedure performed by trained professionals. The depth of the micro-injuries can be adjusted to suit individual skin types and concerns, ensuring a tailored treatment approach.
Minimal Downtime: SkinPen® treatments typically have minimal downtime. Patients may experience some redness and mild swelling immediately after the procedure, which usually subsides within a day or two. Most people can resume their regular activities shortly after treatment.
Progressive Results: While some improvements may be noticeable after a single session, SkinPen® microneedling often requires a series of treatments to achieve the desired results. The full benefits become more apparent as the skin continues to regenerate and remodel over several weeks to months.
The science behind SkinPen®
SkinPen® microneedling is a cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen production and promoting tissue remodeling.
It involves the use of a device equipped with fine, sterile needles that create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural wound healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. As collagen and elastin increase, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance.
SkinPen® microneedling is an effective treatment for a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and overall skin texture and tone improvement.

What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a cutting-edge skin rejuvenation procedure that harnesses the power of tiny, sterile needles to stimulate the skin’s natural healing processes. These minuscule punctures, while causing minimal discomfort, initiate a healing cascade, promoting the production of essential substances like elastin and collagen. These substances are vital for achieving smoother, more elastic skin. Traditional microneedling offers subtle rejuvenation, but for enhanced results, consider RF microneedling, such as Agnes, which excels in promoting collagen and elastin production.
