SkinPen(Microneedling)
What is SkinPen(Microneedling)?
Microneedling, otherwise known as SkinPen, has become an increasingly popular treatment for a variety of skin conditions. SkinPen is a type of microneedling that uses a medical–grade device to create tiny holes in the skin. These holes stimulate the body’s natural healing process, resulting in the production of new collagen. SkinPen can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions, such as wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and sun damage. The SkinPen device is a pen–shaped device that contains tiny needles. These needles are used to puncture the skin in a controlled manner. The needles create tiny perforations in the skin, which can be adjusted to treat specific areas or depths. This procedure stimulates the body to produce new collagen, which helps to reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, and even out skin tone. The procedure is minimally invasive and requires very little downtime. Most people only experience mild redness and swelling immediately following the procedure. The skin may also be slightly tender, but this should go away within a few days. SkinPen is a safe and effective treatment for many skin conditions and is typically used in combination with other treatments.
