WHAT IS SKINPEN® MICRONEEDLING?
SkinPen Microneedling uses a state-of-the-art device equipped with fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny channels stimulate your body’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production. The result is smoother, firmer, and more refined skin with visible improvements in fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and enlarged pores.

- Smooths fine lines and wrinkles

ENHANCING RESULTS WITH PRF (PLATELET-RICH FIBRIN):
To enhance the benefits of SkinPen Microneedling, we offer the option to combine your treatment with PRF. PRF is an autologous addition prepared from your own blood; it concentrates platelets, fibrin, and the growth factors they release. PRF is sometimes added to other in-office treatments as part of an individualized aesthetic plan; it is not FDA-approved or cleared as a dermal filler.
Here’s how PRF works during your treatment:
- A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed to separate the platelet-rich fibrin (PRF).
- The PRF is then gently applied to your skin during or immediately after the microneedling session.
- The microchannels created by the SkinPen allow for deeper penetration, enhancing absorption and maximizing your overall results.
Adding PRF to your treatment can further boost skin elasticity, hydration, and overall rejuvenation—enhancing your results and giving your complexion a healthier, more youthful glow.
HOW DOES THE TREATMENT WORK?
During your SkinPen session, our skilled providers will gently guide the device across your skin, precisely targeting areas of concern. The controlled micro-injuries activate your body’s natural three-phase healing process:
- Inflammation: Triggers the skin’s natural immune response to cleanse and prepare the area for healing.
- Proliferation: Generates new granulation tissue while stimulating collagen and elastin production.
- Remodeling: Replaces old, damaged cells with fresh, healthy skin for a smoother, more radiant complexion.
Each session typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. A series of 3 treatments is recommended, with maintenance treatments approximately every 3 months thereafter. It is one of the in-office treatments we use most often when patients want to support skin texture, and it can be combined with other treatments as part of your plan.
