Benefits & results

 

Smoother-Looking Scars

Collagen remodeling gradually improves the appearance of depressed facial acne scars.

Refined Texture

Supports smoother, more even-looking skin over a recommended treatment series.

Progressive Results

Improvement develops gradually as the skin’s remodeling process continues.

Faded hyperpigmentation

Collagen turnover accelerates skin cell renewal, helping to fade dark spots, post-inflammatory marks, and uneven pigmentation over time.

Firmer, more youthful skin

Collagen and elastin production gradually improves skin firmness and reduces the appearance of fine lines — especially around the eyes and mouth.

Long-lasting results

Because microneedling stimulates your body's own healing process, results continue to improve for weeks after each session and last significantly longer than surface treatments.

Microneedling FAQ

Quick answers about SkinPen microneedling.

We apply a topical numbing cream for 20–30 minutes before the treatment, so most clients are comfortable throughout. The sensation is typically described as a light vibration or pressure. Some areas — like around the nose or forehead — may feel more sensitive than others, but the numbing keeps it very manageable. You’ll be able to speak with us throughout if anything needs adjusting.

It depends on your concern and your skin’s response. For mild texture or preventative collagen support, 2–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart often delivers significant results. For more significant acne scarring or deeper skin concerns, we typically recommend a series of 4–6 sessions. I’ll set realistic expectations at your consultation and track progress together.

Yes — SkinPen Precision is clinically validated as safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, including deeper complexions. Unlike certain laser treatments that carry a risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation in darker skin, microneedling doesn’t use heat and is widely considered one of the safest corrective options for melanin-rich skin. I’ve treated clients across all skin tones and always adjust my approach accordingly.

The standard SkinPen session uses a targeted serum infused during treatment — this is already highly effective. The Growth Factor upgrade adds a more advanced serum during the session for enhanced collagen stimulation and healing, plus a professional-grade take-home kit to support your results between appointments. If you’re treating significant scarring or want to accelerate your results, the upgrade is worth it.

Some clients notice improved texture and a glow within 1–2 weeks of their first session as the initial healing completes. But the real results — collagen remodeling, scar improvement, pore refinement — develop progressively over 4–8 weeks after each session. This is a treatment that rewards patience. After a full series, most clients see their best results 2–3 months after their final session.
