What is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen Microneedling is a clinically validated, versatile, and safe skin-rejuvenation treatment with broad efficacy for scars, aging, and texture improvements. SkinPen creates controlled micro?injuries in the skin, prompting a three-phase wound-healing cascade—inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling—leading to increased collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin
With its FDA clearance, adjustable precision, and strong safety profile—even for darker skin tones—it offers substantial cosmetic enhancement with minimal downtime. For optimal results and safety, it should only be administered by trained professionals following tailored protocols and aftercare.

Microneedling treatments we offer:

Microneedling with platelet-rich plasma, enhances traditional microneedling by incorporating the regenerative power of your body’s own platelets. The growth factors in PRP help repair tissue more efficiently, making this treatment especially effective for aging, sun-damaged, or scarred skin.
Microneedling with Sculptra combines collagen induction therapy with the regenerative power of poly-L-lactic acid to enhance skin firmness, volume, and overall quality. This treatment is ideal for clients seeking a non-surgical solution to improve skin laxity, firmness, and texture.

How long will my results last?

For long-term benefits, many clients opt for maintenance treatments 1–2 times per year, along with a good skincare routine, sun protection, and a healthy lifestyle.
Keep in mind that natural aging continues, so periodic treatments help sustain and enhance results over time.
