SkinPen microneedling is a minimally invasive approach that boosts skin health and beauty through a process known as collagen induction therapy. This treatment creates precise micro-injuries on the skin’s surface to kickstart natural healing, resulting in a healthier and more youthful-looking complexion.
SkinPen microneedling is suitable for all skin types and can treat a broad range of cosmetic skin concerns. Most commonly, this treatment is used to reduce the visibility of acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores. Additionally, SkinPen microneedling treatment can be used to treat hyperpigmentation and uneven skin texture.
On average, a SkinPen microneedling session lasts 30 minutes. Due to the minimal downtime and the high safety profile this approach offers, SkinPen microneedling is a popular choice for those looking to rejuvenate their complexion through a minimally invasive treatment.
During SkinPen microneedling, a handheld device featuring a disposable cartridge with small, sterile needles is used. The specialist creates controlled micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating the body’s natural wound-healing response and promoting the production of new collagen and elastin fibers.
After SkinPen microneedling, your skin undergoes three phases: inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. During the inflammation phase, the body’s immune system responds to the micro-injuries, initiating the healing process. In the proliferation phase, new tissue and collagen fibers form. In the remodeling phase, new collagen fibers mature and strengthen, which results in enhanced skin texture and elasticity.
SkinPen microneedling is an effective treatment option for a variety of skin conditions, making it a versatile procedure for skin rejuvenation. Some of the skin concerns that SkinPen microneedling treatment can address include:
• Wrinkles and fine lines: SkinPen microneedling diminishes fine lines and wrinkles, leading to smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
• Acne scars: This treatment reduces the appearance of both old and new acne scars by promoting collagen remodeling.
• Hyperpigmentation: If you have areas of hyperpigmentation you would like to address, such as age spots, SkinPen microneedling could be the right treatment.
• Stretch marks: This approach can be used to reduce the visibility of both old and new stretch marks.
• Large pores: SkinPen microneedling minimizes the appearance of enlarged pores by promoting tighter skin.
The length of recovery after SkinPen microneedling treatment is typically around 48 hours. Most patients experience redness and mild swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, for the first 24 to 48 hours; however, these symptoms typically subside on their own within a couple of days.
During the first week, you may notice some minor peeling as the skin heals and renews. It’s essential to avoid direct sun exposure and use a gentle moisturizer and sunscreen to ensure your skin heals well.
In most cases, you will be able to return to your regular activities immediately after treatment, though it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and makeup for the first 24 hours to allow the skin to heal properly. By carefully following the specialist’s instructions regarding aftercare, you can enjoy the best outcomes from SkinPen microneedling treatment.
The number of SkinPen microneedling sessions needed varies depending on the individual’s skin condition and treatment goals. Typically, a series of three to six sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart is recommended for optimal results from SkinPen treatment.
For those with more severe skin concerns, such as deep acne scars or pronounced wrinkles, additional sessions may be recommended. Typically, maintenance treatments are scheduled every three to six months to sustain the improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
During your consultation session, the specialist will assess your concerns and create a personalized treatment plan outlining the right number of SkinPen microneedling sessions for you.
