Microneedling
Hitting reset on your skin can be as simple as a 60-minute microneedling treatment. SkinPen creates micro-channels (microscopic holes) at a rate of 1600 per second. These wounds stimulate your skin, kicking its healing process into high gear. Best of all, SkinPen doesn’t rely on heat or chemicals, so the results are natural and safe for all skin tones and types.
In a clinical study, 90% of patients said they would recommend SkinPen.
SkinPen Follows A 3-Step Process
1
Inflammation
SkinPen’s micro needles pierce the skin, triggering your immune system to disinfect the wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow, and begin to create new tissue.
2
Proliferation
The micro-wounds created by SkinPen are rebuilt with new granulation cells that include collagen proteins. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops.
3
Remodeling
Remodeling the wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels which are comprised of rich collagen and elastin proteins. These proteins improve skin youthfulness.
Treatments consist of 4-6 sessions once every 4 weeks to achieve maximum results.

The SkinPen offers a completely safe and clean solution because it uses disposable needle cartridges. The Needles are straight and sterile (see above on far left). Furthermore, treatment sessions with the SkinPen are far shorter than those necessary with the traditional dermal rollers.

As the only FDA-approved tool for microneedling, the SkinPen is your best option for treating acne scars.
SkinPen penetrates slightly deeper into the dermal layer, which significantly stimulates the collagen recruitment and healing process, thus providing a solution to deeper and broader scarring problems.
By doing so, the process causes the skin to start healing in a uniform process, which creates a smooth and even texture where scars once existed.
