How does it work?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that stimulates your natural collagen production. The SkinPen® microneedling device causes controlled micro-injuries that stimulate the body’s natural wound healing process.
The micro-injuries trigger the release of cytokines and growth factors that lead to remodeling of collagen and elastin.
Recommend number of treatments:
The number of treatments recommended depends on your skin and individual goals! During your initial consultation, we’ll recommend a course of treatment to help you achieve the skin of your dreams.
Typically 3-6 treatments is recommended spaced every 4-6 weeks for optimal results.
What to Expect at your treatment
We start each treatment with the application of a topic anesthetic. This helps reduce any potential discomfort during the treatment. The average SkinPen® session typically lasts 45 minutes, and you can expect some mild redness and swelling for 2 to 4 days after treatment, not unlike a very mild sunburn, though many patients heal completely in as little as 24 hours. Individual results may vary.
