SkinPen is a medical grade, state-of-the-art microneedling device designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and scars on the face and body by stimulating collagen production.

SkinPen Microneedling is used to treat a variety of skin conditions that cause depressions in the skin such as acne scarring, surgical scars, other scars, burns, enlarged pores, wrinkles (rhytides), and stretch marks (striae).

SkinPen Microneedling works by creating a series of hundreds of microscopic channels into the dermis to stimulate the skin’s natural production of new collagen and elastin, helping skin to look and feel healthier.

Also known as collagen induction therapy, SkinPen Microneedling is a pen-like handpiece that contains 14 fine needles that repeatedly pierce the skin. SkinPen Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries to stimulate the skin’s natural wound-healing process while minimizing cellular damage.

You may need between one and six SkinPen Microneedling treatments to achieve your desired results.

If you’re trying to minimize your pores, you should only expect to need one treatment session.

You may need two or three treatment sessions to erase moderate-to-severe wrinkles and folds.

Individual results will vary, but typically you can expect the results of your treatment to last between four and six months.

Results tend to last longer in individuals with mild-to-moderate dynamic wrinkles.

After a SkinPen Microneedling procedure swelling is typical up to 48 hours.

Flaking or peeling after microneedling is also relatively common.

Other side effects, like bumps, breakouts, and dry skin, are also common after microneedling — but not everyone will experience them.
