Microneedling can create drastic results on the skin. With the impactful SkinPen device, we can help induce collagen production in your skin and address skin concerns such as fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and mild acne scars.
What is SkinPen Microneedling?
Microneedling is a procedure that reduces the appearance of fine lines, aiding in collagen production by creating micro-injuries in the skin with fine needles. During microneedling, these microchannels are created in the epidermis layer, allowing the effects of anti-aging creams, gels, and serums to be better absorbed into the skin, resulting in softer, thicker skin.
At Smile-Chic, our team works with the SkinPen precision tool, an FDA-approved device that’s designed to work without the need for chemicals, heat, or stress. It is clinically tested and proven to provide the skin with collagen-producing effects and is considered one of the most recommended devices by leading dermatologists and estheticians.
So, how does SkinPen transform the skin? SkinPen microneedling follows a three-step process:
- Inflammation: The microneedles penetrate the skin’s surface, causing a natural immune response, and then work to disinfect, remove dirt and debris, activate new tissue regeneration, and increase blood flow.
- Proliferation: By creating micro-channels or tiny holes, the SkinPen helps build new granulation cells that include collagen proteins and cause a network of blood vessels to develop.
- Remodeling: Due to the microchannels, new dermal tissues form rich in collagen and elastin proteins to improve skin quality, visibly reducing facial acne scars and neck wrinkles, leaving skin younger-looking.
Because of its versatility, it can be used on many parts of the body. At Smile-Chic, we work with SkinPen from the neck up, as the natural repair process can be better managed with your face’s skin and texture. The total healing time for this procedure depends on the individual, and most patients will experience redness for two to four days after the procedure.
At Smile-Chic, we can offer cleanses and topical anesthesia to minimize discomfort during your treatment. The device creates millions of controlled microchannels; this procedure can easily be combined with chemical or enzyme peels to minimize scars, Hydrafacial for extensive hydrating effects, fillers add fullness and volume, and much more.
