Skin Pen Microneedling

We are proud to offer Dermapen microneedling, a leading system for skin rejuvenation. During treatment, tiny needles are used to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin in order to aid in the production of collagen and elastin. The skin’s repair process results in a thicker epidermis with a softer appearance of wrinkles. These micro needles break down old scar tissue and stimulate skin cells to proliferate. This cell multiplication results in the formation of new tissue layers of elastin and collagen fibers, as well as new capillaries for an improved blood supply.

What Microneedling Treats:

Mild to moderate acne scarring; any new or old scars

  • Stimulates tissue regeneration

  • Disfiguring scars, especially acne scars, can be improved as new collagen fibers elevate the depressed scar tissue with the periphery skin

  • Pore size reduction

  • Improves the appearance of stretch marks

Microneedling Benefits:

The SkinPen Microneedling Procedure:

  1. Consultation: Discuss your skin concerns, medical history, and treatment goals with Dr. Stubbs or your Aesthetician to determine if SkinPen microneedling is suitable for you.

  2. Preparation: The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort during the procedure.

  3. Microneedling Treatment: The SkinPen device is gently moved across the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries. These tiny punctures stimulate the skin's natural healing response.

  4. Post-Treatment Care: A soothing serum or moisturizer may be applied to the treated skin. Sun protection is essential following microneedling treatments.

Recovery:

  • Immediate Recovery: Mild redness and swelling are common immediately after the procedure, which typically subside within a few hours to a day.

  • Downtime: Minimal downtime is needed, and you can usually resume normal activities within a day or two.

  • Full Results: Gradual improvements in skin texture and tone can be noticed over several weeks as collagen production continues.
