What Is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen is a microneedling technology that uses thin needles to create tiny microchannels in the skin, triggering the skin's healing response process and stimulating collagen production. SkinPen kickstarts new collagen production without using heat or chemicals, making it safe for all skin tones and types. Effective for improving texture, tone, and skin quality, SkinPen delivers radiant results.

How To Prepare For Your SkinPen Treatment
To ensure optimal preparation for your SkinPen service, it is recommended to steer clear of extended sun exposure and any cosmetic treatments or product ingredients that may lead to irritation. Since this treatment is personalized to suit your needs, our experienced provider will offer detailed pre and post-care guidelines during the assessment and consultation process.
During Your SkinPen Treatment
Upon arrival, you will cleanse your skin of any makeup or sunscreen. Following this, a topical numbing cream will be applied to reduce any potential discomfort. After around 30 minutes, the numbing cream is wiped off, and the treatment by your esthetician begins, lasting approximately an hour. The experience is often likened to a prickly sensation and is generally well-tolerated by the majority of clients.
SkinPen Aftercare & Recovery Timeline
After the treatment, some discomfort, redness, and swelling are normal, much like a sunburn. Within a few days, small micro scabs might appear, and it's important to be cautious to protect your healing skin barrier. Keep in mind that excessive blood flow and sweat can lead to irritation, so it's crucial to refrain from hot baths, exercise, massages, and harsh skincare products or exfoliants to properly care for the treated areas.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
The number of treatments recommended is personal, and depends on your skin concerns and goals. Often, a series of 4-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is advised for the best outcomes. Many clients opt for regular SkinPen treatments as part of their skincare regimen for graceful aging.
What Kind Of Results Can I Expect?
SkinPen microneedling offers a variety of solutions ranging from skin resurfacing and regeneration to reducing wrinkles. As your skin undergoes collagen remodeling over 3-6 months, you will observe improvements in overall rejuvenation and skin texture.
Which Areas Can Be Treated With SkinPen?
SkinPen can be used on the face, neck, decollete, and certain areas of the body where there may be loose skin or stretch marks. Our highly experienced Sheletha King is an expert in treating all areas.
Is SkinPen Right For Me?
For those seeking to improve sun damage, discoloration, fine lines, crepey texture, enlarged pores, or scars, SkinPen is a valuable treatment option. Following a thorough discussion of your objectives in your consultation, your skincare expert will assess if SkinPen is the most suitable option for you.
