SkinPen is FDA-cleared microneedling that triggers your skin's own collagen renewal, so acne scars soften, pores tighten and the products you already own finally reach where they need to go.
SkinPen Precision in treatmentIt isn't a discipline problem or the wrong product. Your skin was never given a reason to rebuild.
Precision micro-channels prompt the skin to rebuild itself. No creams, no promises, just the body's own repair response.
The repair response switches on within hours of treatment.
New collagen and elastin form over the following weeks.
Skin becomes smoother, tighter and more even over the following months.
Numbing cream goes on first, so the treatment itself is close to painless.
Mild pressure and a light vibration. Most patients describe it as a scratching sensation.
Like a mild sunburn. Sunscreen and makeup are fine the next day.
A comprehensive look at your skin. If SkinPen isn't right for your skin he'll say so.
How many sessions, how far apart, and what to expect after each.
Minimal discomfort, limited downtime, performed under physician oversight.
A finite plan with one number. No open-ended subscription.

Natalie SchultzAn FDA-cleared microneedling device that creates controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate natural healing and new collagen and elastin.
Acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven texture, enlarged pores and other visible signs of aging.
It varies. A series of about three treatments spaced roughly four weeks apart is common. You'll get your exact plan at the consultation.
Numbing cream is applied first. Most patients feel mild pressure, vibration or a light scratching.
The microneedling itself is about 30 minutes, plus time for numbing and prep.
Minimal. Redness, sensitivity or mild swelling that looks like a light sunburn usually settles within a few days.
Gradually. Some improvement within several weeks, with results continuing to develop over months as collagen rebuilds.
Not immediately. Your provider will give you timing and aftercare instructions, usually the next day.
SkinPen suits many skin types and tones, but not everyone. The complimentary consultation covers your skin, history and goals.
