SkinPen® Microneedling Stimulates Your Own Collagen

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM MICRONEEDLING

Microneedling is an advanced and quite versatile aesthetic treatment suitable for individuals of various skin types and concerns. It has been clinically proven to help with the following:

1. Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Microneedling can diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making the skin look more youthful and radiant.
2. Acne Scars: By stimulating collagen production, microneedling can significantly reduce the appearance of acne scars and other types of facial scars.
3. Uneven Skin Tone and Texture: Microneedling can improve the skin’s texture, reducing the appearance of rough patches and refining the overall complexion.
4. Hyperpigmentation: This treatment can help fade areas of hyperpigmentation, such as sunspots and melasma, resulting in a more even skin tone.
5. Large Pores: Microneedling can minimize the appearance of enlarged pores, making the skin look smoother and more refined.
6. Stretch Marks: For individuals with stretch marks, microneedling can be an effective option to reduce their visibility.

HOW MICRONEEDLING TREATMENTS WORK

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device with fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin.

This device can be a derma roller — a handheld roller with needles, or a microneedling pen, a pen-like instrument with disposable needle cartridges.

The tiny punctures created by the needles stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing process. This includes the release of growth factors and the production of new collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that maintain the skin’s structure and elasticity.

While that may sound a little scary or painful, rest assured that microneedling is a very safe and pain-free process. These “micro-injuries” are minuscule and do not cause significant damage to the overall structure of the skin. However, they stimulate the body’s innate wound-healing mechanisms.

The skin perceives these tiny punctures as “injuries,” triggering a natural healing process to repair the affected area. As part of the healing process, the body releases various growth factors, cytokines, and other signaling molecules that initiate an inflammatory response. This inflammatory phase is crucial for cell recruitment and activation.

One of the key benefits of microneedling is its ability to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. Collagen is a protein that provides structural support to the skin, while elastin gives the skin its elasticity. Both of these proteins play essential roles in maintaining the skin’s firmness, texture, and overall youthfulness.

SIGNS & SYMPTOMS THAT MEAN YOU COULD REQUIRE MICRONEEDLING TREATMENT

Since it stimulates the production of new elastin and collagen, microneedling is commonly used to address various skin concerns, such as fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, and overall skin texture.

Some of the specific symptoms or skin conditions that microneedling is commonly used to treat include:

• Fine Lines and Wrinkles
• Acne Scars
• Hyperpigmentation
• Enlarged Pores
• Uneven Skin Texture
• Stretch Marks
• Scars from Injuries or Surgery
• Sun Damage and Age Spots
• Melasma

It’s worth noting that while microneedling can be effective for many skin concerns, individual results may vary, and multiple sessions are often needed to achieve the desired outcome. Additionally, some skin conditions may require a combination of microneedling with other treatments or modalities for optimal results.

During your initial consultation with our microneedling specialists, we will determine what type of microneedling treatment will work best for you and how many return visits you are likely to require, given your skin’s condition and your aesthetic goals.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM MICRONEEDLING TREATMENT?

1. Cleansing: The treatment area will be cleansed to ensure there is no makeup or impurities on the skin.
2. Topical Numbing: A topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize any potential discomfort during the procedure.
3. Microneedling: Our skilled professional will gently and precisely move the microneedling device over the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries.
4. Soothing Serum: A soothing and nourishing serum will be applied post-treatment to enhance results and aid in the healing process.
