SKINPEN® MICRONEEDLING
SAY GOODBYE TO ACNE SCARRING!
The world's first and only FDA-cleared medical microneedling device, created for microneedling to be performed by a physician or trained skincare professional. An extremely effective treatment to naturally rejuvenate the skin, dramatically improve acne scars, and eliminate fine lines and wrinkles.
WHAT IS SKINPEN®?
SkinPen® is a microneedling procedure that creates hundreds to thousands of “micro” skin punctures per second to stimulate the skin’s natural wound healing process, which triggers new collagen synthesis. The result is smoother, younger-looking skin. Multiple treatments may be required to achieve optimal results. Most patients can return to normal activities within 24 hours.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Skinpen microneedling is designed to stimulate skin cell turnover and promote collagen and elastin by creating controlled micro-injuries in the dermis to stimulate our skin's repair process and wound healing process, while minimizing cellular damage. The result is effective remodelling of scar tissue, while keeping the overall structure of the skin safe and intact.
​
There are three phases to the wound-repair process:
-
Phase I: Inflammation. Piercing the skin triggers your immune system to disinfect the wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow and begin to create new tissue.
-
Phase II: Proliferation. The wound is rebuilt with new granulation cells, which are part of the extracellular matrix. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops.
-
Phase III: Remodeling. The wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels.
