Overview
SkinPen is an FDA-cleared microneedling device that creates controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate the body's natural wound healing response. This triggers the production of new collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more even-toned skin over time. It is one of the most effective treatments for improving overall skin quality.
How It Works
The SkinPen device uses fine, sterile needles to create precise micro-injuries in the skin's surface. This controlled process activates the skin's natural repair mechanisms, stimulating new collagen and elastin production. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand for comfort. The depth and intensity are customised to your skin's needs and the area being treated.
