SKINPEN MICRONEEDLING

HOW DOES IT WORK?
SkinPen Precision Micro-needling also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT)is a non-surgical and non-invasive advanced skin treatment that uses a mechanical needling device to create thousands of tiny micro-channels in your skin. This promotes a healing response and stimulates growth factors and fibroblasts to repair and regenerate your skin with the production of new collagen and elastin at a cellular level. This process rejuvenates your skin from the inside out. The result is effective remodeling of scar tissue while keeping the overall structure of the skin in tact.

WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT FEEL LIKE?
During the treatment we apply numbing cream to the area being treated so discomfort if any is minimal. We use a specific SkinFuse gel which allows the SkinPen device to glide over the area being treated. It will be an hour appointment, this includes consultation and answer any questions, time for numbing cream to work and then the treatment itself takes 30 minutes.
Afterwards Your skin will be red and will feel warm and tight for 1 or 2 days afterwards. It will also feel dry and flaky. This is all normal. You will be given specific post-procedure healing balm as part of your treatment which will help to alleviate any discomfort.
WHAT ARE THE FINAL RESULTS AFTER MY SKINPEN TREATMENT?
After the procedure, your body will start to naturally regenerate and repair the skin. Your body will form new collagen and elastin, generate new skin cells and enhance the blood supply.
While you will see and feel an improvement in your skin within 1 week, It can take up to 4 or 5 weeks before you will experience visible signs of regeneration and repair and the process will continue over the following months, up to a year after your last session, resulting in gradual and long-lasting improvements to your skin.
WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?
To further improve your skin and for long term skin health, we recommend our clients use Environ Skin Care and incorporate Viramin A, peptides and anti-oxidents along with specific skin supplements into their routine to further reduce lines and wrinkles or improve the appearance of scars.
CELLUMA LED light therapy is excellent at helping to rejuvenate the skin and boost collagen production to boost the SkinPen results, while helping with healing.
