Microneedling

Clinically tested to reduce the appearance of acne scars, SkinPen is the first microneedling device for scar management.

This innovation works by first creating a low-level trauma on the skin surface, then stimulating an immune response.

The skin then heals by forming new dermal tissue and blood vessels, remodeling scar tissue to leave the skin smoother with a reduction in visible scarring.

Recent clinical studies suggest that 90% of people treated, aged 22 and older, with acne scars on the face would recommend SkinPen to family and friends.
Three sessions of this non-invasive treatment should be spaced 30 days apart to start seeing amazing improvements in your skin quality.

Microneedling : frequently asked questions

Does it hurt?

The treatment may sting slightly, but most patients tolerate the sensation well. A numbing cream and gel can be used to reduce friction during the treatment.

Are there side effects?

The face may feel sore or tender after the treatment due to the microtrauma created during application. The science behind this procedure is to induce minor trauma to trigger an inflammatory and healing response. Any side effects will be discussed during the pre-treatment consultation.

What results can I expect?

We usually recommend starting your SkinPen plan with 3 treatments spaced 30 days apart. The interval may vary depending on how your skin responds. We will design a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs. After treatment, you will see a noticeable reduction in acne scars. Maintenance treatments may be needed to support and optimize results.
