Revitalize Your Skin with SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen microneedling is a small device that creates big transformations. Bring your beauty to the surface and boost your confidence with SkinPen. SkinPen rejuvenates skin from the inside out for younger-looking skin. Results are natural, safe and effective for all skin tones and types. Jump-starts new collagen without heat or chemicals. Quick-and-easy with little to no downtime. Skin Pen creates millions of controlled microchannels in the skin. This jump starts the production of collagen and elastin and encourages the release of growth factors that recruit and increase reparative cells. The result is a cascade of healing processes that can continue for months following your treatment. Some people see rejuvenated skin after just one treatment, and results may continue to improve for three to six months following your last treatment.
Each treatment uses a SkinFuse Hyaluronic acid serum for glide and hydration while microneedling. Post treatment, you will take any leftover treatment serum and the SkinFuse Skin Rescue posttreatment serum to encourage your skin to heal with minimal discomfort.
SkinPen is a simple, comfortable, and effective treatment for skin rejuvenation. Most people see results in as few as three 30-minute sessions.
Level up your microneedling treatment with platelet-rich plasma
Your blood is made up of four main components: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. Platelet-Rich Plasma is concentrated component from your own blood that contains nutrient-rich cells and protein growth factors.
Platelet-Rich Plasma is produced when a small amount of blood is drawn and placed into a sterile, disposable container and then, spun to separate the platelets from your blood sample, resulting in a platelet-rich plasma.
Platelet-Rich Plasma is safe because it comes from your own blood, therefore, there is minimal risk for allergic or immune reaction. Side effects or complications with Platelet-Rich Plasma are extremely rare and must be conducted by a licensed and trained medical professional. Consult your physician for more information.
The platelets play a vital role in healing and contain growth factors that stimulate cell reproduction and tissue regeneration in the treated area. PRP is applied to the skin as a serum and absorbs through the holes created by microneedling. PRP will enhance collagen and elastin synthesis deeper in the skin. Microneedling with PRP more effectively treats acne scars, surgical scars, wrinkles, and fine lines, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, large pores, uneven skin texture irregularities, and will help to reduce the appearance of stretch marks. PRP will reduce the common side effects of redness, swelling, and flaking during the healing process. Addnig PRP to microneedling gives better results than microneedling alone.
Answers to commonly asked questions about Microneedling including its uses, expected results, and potential side effects.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural collagen and elastin production, leading to smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
Microneedling triggers the skin’s natural healing response, which involves the production of new collagen and elastin. As these essential proteins are replenished, the skin becomes firmer, and fine lines and wrinkles are diminished.
Microneedling is effective in treating fine lines and wrinkles on various areas of the face, such as crow’s feet, smile lines, forehead wrinkles, and vertical lip lines.
Most patients find microneedling to be well-tolerated. Before the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort during the treatment.
The number of sessions needed can vary depending on the individual’s skin condition and the treatment goals. Typically, a series of 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, is recommended for optimal results.
After microneedling, there is usually mild redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually subsides within a day or two, and most patients can resume their regular activities shortly after the treatment.
Microneedling stimulates collagen production, and the results can continue to improve over several weeks to months following the treatment. Maintenance treatments are recommended to prolong the results.
Microneedling is a safe procedure when performed by a trained professional. Mild side effects may include temporary redness, swelling, or minor skin sensitivity.
es, microneedling can be combined with other treatments such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), growth factors, or hyaluronic acid-based serums to enhance results and address specific skin concerns. We offer the PRP add on for $300, and use the SkinFuse HA serum during treatment to increase hydration and aid in reducing signs of aging.
Microneedling is suitable for most skin types and can be customized to address various signs of aging. A consultation with our experienced medical practitioners will determine if microneedling is the right treatment for your specific needs.
