SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen Microneedling is an innovative, FDA-cleared treatment available at NDA Medical Spa™, designed to enhance skin texture, boost collagen production, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and enlarged pores. Known for its minimal downtime and noticeable results, the SkinPen is an effective solution for achieving smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
What is SkinPen Microneedling?
The SkinPen is a state-of-the-art microneedling device that uses tiny, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process, encouraging collagen and elastin production, which leads to smoother, more youthful-looking skin over time.
How Does SkinPen Work?
The SkinPen creates microscopic channels in the skin, triggering a natural healing response. This response includes:
- Phase 1: Inflammation - The body initiates the healing process, increasing blood flow and immune response.
- Phase 2: Proliferation - New collagen and elastin are generated, improving skin structure.
- Phase 3: Remodeling - Freshly produced collagen tightens, smooths, and strengthens the skin, resulting in a rejuvenated complexion.
Why Use SkinPen?
- Improves Skin Texture: Reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores.
- Minimizes Scars: Effective for diminishing acne scars and other minor skin imperfections.
- Promotes Radiant Skin: Enhances overall skin tone and brightness, giving a natural glow.
- Non-Invasive & Minimal Downtime: SkinPen microneedling is non-surgical and allows for a quick recovery.
Will SkinPen Work for Me?
SkinPen is suitable for all skin types and tones, making it an inclusive solution for most individuals. It’s particularly beneficial for:
- Those with mild to moderate signs of aging
- Individuals with acne scars or other superficial scars
- Those looking to improve skin texture and reduce pore size
Is SkinPen Safe?
Yes, SkinPen microneedling is FDA-cleared and widely regarded as safe when performed by trained professionals. The device uses sterile, single-use needle cartridges to minimize any risk of infection, and the procedure itself is minimally invasive, typically causing only slight redness post-treatment.
Who Should Not Use SkinPen?
Those with the following conditions should consult with our specialists to determine if SkinPen is right for them:
- Active acne or skin infections
- Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals
- Individuals with keloid scars or a history of poor wound healing
