What is SkinPen technology?

SkinPen technology uses a handheld device containing very tiny needles. When applied to your skin, these needles make microtears in treated skin to reduce common imperfections. Microneedling stimulates new cell growth and your body’s natural wound-healing process. 

It minimizes cell damage, remodels scar tissues, and enhances your skin’s texture and appearance. Microneedling can also increase natural hair growth. 

How do SkinPen treatments work?

SkinPen treatment creates microscopic holes at a rate of 1600 punctures per second. This stimulates your skin’s healing process, kicking it into high gear. Microneedling addresses numerous imperfections, particularly acne scarring, to achieve the gorgeous skin and healthy glow you deserve.

What are the benefits of SkinPen?

SkinPen offers numerous aesthetic benefits, including:

• Diminished scarring
• Smaller pores
• Fewer lines and wrinkles
• Smoother, tighter, younger-looking skin
• Increased tissue firmness
• Faster collagen and elastin production
• Even-toned skin
• New blood vessel formation 
• Increased blood flow
• Thicker hair

SkinPen isn’t invasive, so there’s no pain or downtime associated with the treatment. Studies show that 90% of patients who have received SkinPen treatment recommend it to others.

Is SkinPen treatment right for me?

The Institute for Hormone Balance team examines your skin before tailoring a treatment plan. They also review your medical history, treatment preferences, and aesthetic goals. They customize a plan best suited to your needs and tell you what to expect during the procedure. 

What happens during SkinPen procedures?

Your cosmetic specialist cleans your skin and uses a numbing cream to optimize comfort. They apply a specialized SkinPen device to your skin to remodel treated tissues while you relax. Your provider might also apply healing serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to the treatment area during a vampire facial or hair loss treatment. 

Microneedling treatments typically last about 30-60 minutes.

What should I expect after my treatment?

After SkinPen treatments, temporary side effects include swelling, redness, tenderness, and even scabbing. Over time, new cells generate, and you begin to notice healing, skin revitalization, and reduced imperfections. 

Your Institute for Hormone Balance specialist determines when to schedule your next treatment session to maximize the results and maintain younger-looking skin.
