How SkinPen Elite Microneedling Works?

SkinPen uses a precise, three-phase process to transform and rejuvenate your skin:

Inflammation

During the inflammation phase, the SkinPen’s microneedles create thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin, which triggers your body’s natural wound-healing response. Immune cells are activated and dispatched to the area to disinfect, remove debris, and increase blood circulation, preparing the skin for repair.

Proliferation

In the proliferation stage, your body begins to form new tissue by accelerating the production of collagen and elastin. These structural proteins are essential for maintaining skin firmness, resilience, and elasticity, laying the foundation for long-term skin renewal.

Remodeling

As the healing process enters the remodeling phase, fresh, healthy dermal tissues replace damaged or aged skin cells. This gradual transformation leads to visibly smoother, firmer, and more evenly textured skin with improved overall tone..

What to Expect From Your SkinPen Elite Microneedling Treatment?

Before Your Appointment

Your provider will gently cleanse the treatment area. The process may be made more comfortable by applying numbing cream to the skin before and during the procedure.

During Your Treatment

Once your skin is numbed, the SkinPen Elite is gently applied to the target areas. Microneedles create microchannels in the skin while ensuring precision control in order to avoid trauma. Patients typically report mild pressure and a slight buzzing sensation as a result of the whole procedure, which usually lasts around 30 minutes.

Aftercare & Recovery

There may be a small amount of redness on the skin immediately following the treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. Other temporary responses may include tightness, dryness, or flaking, which generally subside within 24 to 72 hours. You can resume wearing makeup and applying sunscreen after 24 hours. In order to optimize your results, your provider will give you specific post-care instructions.
