SkinPen Microneedling

How to prepare for the treatment
Pre-Care Instructions
• Avoid Accutane in the six months prior to beginning your treatment sessions.
• Do not use topical agents that may increase the sensitivity of your skin such as retinoids, exfoliants, topical antibiotics or acids 5-7 days prior to your treatment.
• Do not take anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, Motrin, or Advil for at least 3 days prior to your microneedling session. These will interfere with the natural inflammatory process that is critical for your skin rejuvenation.
• Avoid IPL/Laser procedures, unprotected sun exposure, or sunburn for at least 2 weeks prior to your procedure.
• No waxing, depilatory creams, or electrolysis to the area being treated for 5-7 days prior.
• Do not shave the day of the procedure to avoid skin irritation. If there’s dense hair present in the treatment area, shave the day before you arrive for your appointment.
• If you’re prone to cold sores, take an antiviral agent for 2 days prior to and the day of the treatment.
• Avoid blood thinning agents for one week prior because bruising is a common side effect of microneedling.
Day of the Treatment

• Inform provider of any relevant changes in your medical history and of all medications you are taking.
• Notify provider of any cosmetic tattoos to areas being treated.

Discover the benefits of SkinPen Microneedling
-
Collagen and Elastin Stimulation:
The micro-injuries created during the procedure prompt the body to produce collagen and elastin, essential proteins responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. As we age, our skin’s collagen and elastin levels decrease, forming wrinkles and fine lines. SkinPen helps replenish these proteins, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
-
Improved Skin Texture
The controlled injury and subsequent healing process also help improve skin texture and tone. This makes SkinPen a valuable treatment for addressing concerns such as acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin pigmentation.
