Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic procedure that involves puncturing the skin with tiny, sterilized needles using a handheld drum or pen-shaped device. These tiny wounds cause the skin to produce more collagen and elastin by stimulating the skin to repair itself naturally through a process called dermal remodeling. This process heals and helps to rejuvenate the skin. Microneedling can be used to treat things like acne scarring, sun damage, surgical scars, burns, enlarged pores, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
Microneedling has anti-aging benefits thanks to its ability to produce new skin cells and increase the skin’s production of elastin and collagen, which can help improve skin elasticity. This procedure can potentially address the most common signs of aging that affect our complexions, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging.
Neck Wrinkles
The skin on your neck is different from the skin on your face. This delicate area has less fatty tissue and collagen, along with fewer oil glands, making it more prone to wrinkles, crepy texture and a slackened appearance. That’s why the first signs of aging often appear on the neck.
But there are also other culprits behind neck wrinkles, aka “Tech Neck”. The frequent, repetitive motion of looking down at devices, like your phone can also increase and accelerate the look of horizontal neck wrinkles, lines and creases.
But whether they’re caused by age or tech, neck wrinkles can leave you feeling less confident. Instead of covering up, SkinPen can improve the look of neck wrinkles and uncover your best, firm, radiant, younger looking skin.
Hyperpigmentation
Age spots and hyperpigmentation from sun damage can cause your complexion to look uneven and blotchy. Microneedling has been proven to be helpful when it comes to lightening age spots, hyperpigmentation, and other dark spots that form due to exposure to toxins and free radicals.
Acne Scars
Microneedling can improve the look of facial acne scars, for smooth, healthy skin that glows from within. Younger, firmer, smoother and more radiant skin awaits!
Stretch Marks
Stretch marks can occur when the skin stretches rapidly and damages the proteins within the dermis layer. Microneedling can help rebuild the proteins within the dermis, making the stretch marks and scars appear much less noticeable.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses the infusion of concentrated platelets harvested from the patient’s blood to accelerate healing in a specific area. It contains two elements – plasma, the liquid portion of the blood, and platelets. The platelets play a vital role in healing and contain growth factors that stimulate cell reproduction and tissue regeneration in the treated area. The patient’s blood is obtained through a simple blood draw and placed in a centrifuge to spin to create this platelet-rich plasma. The centrifuge is necessary to separate the platelets from the remainder of the blood and create a concentrate referred to as platelet rich plasma. Because the treatments use a patient’s own blood, PRP infusions are safe and can be administered alone or in conjunction with other procedures. PRP is a wonderful addition to microneedling. First, a microneedling tool is used to puncture the skin and make numerous holes in the skin’s surface. PRP is then applied to the skin’s surface and allowed to penetrate the holes created by microneedling. PRP can enhance collagen and elastin production in deeper skin levels. Microneedling with PRP effectively treats acne scars, surgical scars, wrinkles, and fine lines, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, large pores, uneven skin texture irregularities, and it helps to decrease the appearance of stretch marks. The addition of PRP to microneedling produces superior results over microneedling alone.
