Microneedling

Skin Pen Microneedling Reduce Acne and Acne Scaring Reduce Fine Lines Reduce Wrinkles

Microneedling is one of the most popular facial treatments. This treatment involves using a device with tiny needles to create micro-injuries on the skin's surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing process and promote the production of collagen, elastin, and new skin cells. This, in turn, renews and rejuvenates the skin, minimizes surface wrinkles, minimizes scars, builds collagen, and improves skin texture.

We use the only FDA-approved microneedling device, SkinPen! It is FDA approved for acne scar treatment, fine lines and wrinkles.
