SkinPen is an FDA approved device that creates controlled microscopic channels in the skin to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. This process includes remodeling and rejuvenation of the skin.
Three phases of the skin renewal process:
-inflammation: when the needles penetrate the skin’s surface, a natural healing response occurs to disinfect, remove debris, increase blood flow, and activate the creation of new tissue.
-proliferation: rebuilding with new granulation cells, formation of new network of blood vessels to nourish the healing skin during the process of regeneration
-remodeling: new tissue forms, rich in collagen and elastin proteins, which improve overall skin quality
Following a series of treatments, most patients notice:
SkinPen microneedling is safe for all skin types. Commonly, the face and neck are treated; however, the treatment can also be used on other areas of the body to treat scarring, stretch marks, and crepey skin. The variable needle depth allows for versatility and personalization of each treatment by the administering provider.
