Microneedling
Service Description
SkinPen Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment used to improve your skin’s appearance by stimulating collagen production.During the procedure, the doctor makes tiny pinpricks with a pen-like tool that cause slight injury to your skin. These pinpricks are so small that they’re virtually invisible after the procedure. Your body responds to these micro-wounds by healing itself with new collagen-rich tissue that’s more even in tone and texture. Pre-Treatment Instructions: - Please discontinue products containing any exfoliating agents (retinoic acid, tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic/salicylic acids, astringents, etc.) 24 hours before treatment. - If you have a history of herpes or cold sores, we highly recommend a course of anti-viral medication pre and post treatment. This will prevent an outbreak of cold sores if you are prone to them. Cold sores can also break out on people who are not prone to them, but who have sensitive skin. If you would like us to call in a prescription for you, please call our offices. Post-Treatment Instrustions: - Avoid clothing, headbands, hats or scarves on the treated area. If clothing is to be worn over the treatment area, we recommend cotton clothing that hasn’t been treated with fabric softeners or dryer sheets. - Redness and/or swelling is common and will resolve within 1-2 days. - Cleanse skin then apply products recommended to you by your clinician. Do not apply anything else to the skin. - Avoid any exfoliating products for at least 3-5 days post treatment. - Wear SPF while being outdoors during your healing process and after
