Microneedling procedures are fantastic, minimally invasive options for improving your appearance.
Most microneedling procedures require 30 minutes of topical numbing therapy prior to treatment. The SkinPen treatment time varies based upon the treatment area, with most treatments lasting 15-20 minutes. Each SkinPen can be adjusted from 0.5 to 2.5mm in depth to treat various scarred or otherwise damaged areas. One treatment will not be enough to give you the results you desire, so be prepared for a series of treatments spaced a few weeks or months apart for a modest improvement with a short period of downtime (one and a half days of redness). A fractional carbon dioxide laser would provide better results than a microneedling procedure for fine wrinkles, but the downtime would be seven days of redness, and costs can run more than 5 times as much. With microneedling, expected downtime is one to two days’ time, but may last longer; you should also expect a slight stinging or burning feeling and increased facial redness post procedure.
How it works
By making controlled micro-injuries to the skin, a microneedling procedure will help stimulate the body’s own wound care system to produce more collagen and ultimately improve the appearance of treated skin. At Las Vegas Dermatology® we are using the SkinPen for our microneedling therapies to treat fine wrinkles, scars, stretch marks and texture irregularity.
