What Is SkinPen®?
SkinPen® is an FDA-cleared microneedling device designed to stimulate your skin’s natural healing process. Using a series of tiny, controlled micro-injuries, SkinPen® triggers collagen and elastin production — the essential building blocks of smooth, firm, youthful-looking skin.
Unlike more aggressive treatments, SkinPen® works with your body to gradually improve your skin from within, making it a safe and effective option for a wide range of skin types and concerns.
How SkinPen® Works
During your treatment, the SkinPen® device creates precise microchannels in the skin. These micro-injuries activate your body’s natural repair response, leading to increased collagen production and cellular turnover.
This process helps to:
- Boost collagen and elastin for firmer, more resilient skin
- Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
- Improve skin texture and tone
- Minimize the appearance of pores and imperfections
Over time, your skin becomes smoother, clearer, and more even — with results that continue to improve as collagen rebuilds.

What Can SkinPen® Treat?
SkinPen® is a versatile treatment that can address a wide range of common skin concerns.
It’s ideal for improving:
- Fine lines and early signs of aging
- Uneven skin texture
- Dull or rough skin
- Mild acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Overall skin tone and clarity
Because it’s customizable, your treatment can be tailored to your specific skin goals.
What to Expect
SkinPen® treatments are quick, comfortable, and require little downtime.
During treatment:
- A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort
- The device is gently passed over the skin to create controlled microchannels
After treatment:
- Mild redness similar to a light sunburn for 24–48 hours
- Skin may feel slightly dry or tight as it heals
- Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two
For best results, a series of treatments is typically recommended, depending on your goals.
Enhance Your Results
SkinPen® can be performed on its own or combined with other treatments to further enhance your results.
Many patients choose to pair microneedling with regenerative add-ons to boost collagen production, accelerate healing, and maximize outcomes. During your consultation, we’ll create a personalized plan based on your skin’s needs.
