A minimally invasive treatment designed to improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and overall skin texture— without heat or chemicals.
SkinPen® microneedling is a clinically proven treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural ability to repair itself. By creating controlled micro-channels in the skin, this process activates collagen and elastin production, helping improve tone, texture, and overall skin quality.
As we age, collagen and elastin naturally decline—leading to visible changes like fine lines, loss of firmness, and uneven texture. SkinPen works with your body’s natural healing response to restore a smoother, healthier-looking appearance over time.
Safe for all skin types and tones, SkinPen is an excellent option for patients looking for natural-looking results with minimal downtime.
How SkinPen® Microneedling Works
SkinPen uses a precision-controlled device with sterile, single-use needles to create thousands of micro-channels in the skin at a consistent depth and speed. These controlled micro-injuries stimulate the body’s wound-healing process, triggering new collagen and elastin production.
Unlike many resurfacing treatments, SkinPen does not use heat or chemicals, making it a safe and effective option for a wide range of skin tones and concerns
SkinPen® Works in Three Simple Steps
Inflammation
Controlled micro-channels are created in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing response. Blood flow increases, and the skin begins clearing debris and preparing for repair.
Proliferation
New tissue forms as collagen (type III) and elastin are produced, helping rebuild the skin’s structure and improve elasticity.
Remodeling
Collagen matures into stronger type I collagen, helping refine skin texture, soften fine lines, and improve the appearance of scars and pores.

Benefits of SkinPen® Microneedling
Why SkinPen®
SkinPen® Precision is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device indicated for the treatment of acne scars.
It is backed by clinical studies demonstrating improvement in acne scar appearance after a series of treatments.
What to Expect During Treatment
A topical numbing cream is applied prior to treatment for comfort. Once the skin is prepared, the SkinPen device is passed across the treatment area in a controlled pattern to create precise micro-channels.
Treatments are customized based on your skin type, concerns, and goals to ensure safe and effective results.
Most treatments take about 30–60 minutes, depending on the area.
Downtime & Aftercare
You can expect mild redness and sensitivity following treatment—similar to a light sunburn.
- Redness typically lasts 24–72 hours
- Skin may feel tight, warm, or slightly dry
- Most patients resume normal activities after 24 hours or as advised by your provider
Post-treatment care is essential. We recommend medical-grade products designed to support healing and reduce inflammation.
Your provider will guide you through a personalized aftercare plan to optimize your results.
When Will I See Results?
You may notice an initial glow within the first week, with continued improvement over time as collagen production increases.
For best results, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced ~4-6 weeks apart is typically recommended.
