The Science of SkinPen

Ponte Vedra Vein Institute • August 30, 2021

Skin Pen is the leading micro-fractional collagen induction therapy. It is safe for all skin types and effectively treats hyperpigmentation, laxity, pore size, acne scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles. It works by creating microchannels in the skin to naturally stimulate production of collage and elastin resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated complexion.

Skin pen is this first FDA approved microneedling device for face and neck. The secret to the amazing results lies in the unique cartridge design- it is the most advanced medical grade cartridge that in turn provides precision and safety rather than tearing through the skin as other microneedling devices do.

SkinPen is minimally invasive office procedure with little downtime. Collagen and elastin begin improving within the first 24 hours following your treatment. Recommended treatment is a series of three spaced every 30 days to maximize on your Collagen Production.


What to Expect:


On the day of your Skin Pen appointment, you can expect to have topical anesthesia applied to assure comfort during the treatment. Treatment time is typically 30-45 minutes depending on areas treated. During this time, we are creating millions of microchannels resulting in new collagen and elastin.

After your treatment, your skin will appear slightly pink to red, similar to a sunburn appearance. You may have some dryness and flaking within the first few days following your treatment. Pairing Skin Pen treatments with Plate Rich Plasma (PRP) and skin care products such as Alastin Nectar enhances collagen and elastin production to supercharge your results.
