About
SkinPen Microneedling
CIT- Collagen Induction Therapy
The name says it all- SkinPen Microneedling builds collagen. This tried and true skin treatment creates crisp and clean micro injuries in the skin with sterile, sharp, small needles targeted to precisely chosen skin depths. Gone are the days of outdated derma-rollers and pens that drag across and tear up the skin, doing more harm than good. A series of SkinPen microneedling treatments will help plump the skin, treat fine lines, ‘tech neck’ or ‘necklace’ lines and enlarged pores, as well as greatly improve acne scarring and texture issue. Boost results, collagen building and healing with needling in your own PRP and/or adding topical exosomes to your treatment.
Why Kristin loves it: “I love SkinPen microneedling because it uses the body's natural abilities to build collagen without any heat or risk of hyperpigmentation. It has such minimal downtime that patients come back over and over for this favorite treatment, which can be done year-round.”
What to expect: Numbing cream will be applied to the face, which makes the treatment extremely tolerable. The treatment will make the skin pink to red, which typically lasts the duration of the treatment day and less often into the next day. For 24 hours after the procedure, it is recommended to follow strict sun precautions, as sunscreen and makeup must stay off the skin during that time. Normal activities and workouts, sunscreen and makeup may be resumed 24 hours afterwards.
