About the Treatment

Natural Collagen,
Real Repair

SkinPen is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device — engineered to create precise, controlled micro-injuries that trigger your skin’s own healing response. The result is collagen-driven texture refinement, scar revision, and skin that has visibly rebuilt itself.

Treatment takes about 60 minutes after topical numbing. You’ll have pinkness for 24–48 hours, then a glow. Real structural results — scar fading, texture refinement, fine line softening — build over 3–6 months. Most clients schedule 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results. Every treatment is performed by a board-certified provider on FDA-cleared SkinPen technology.

  • Activates collagen and elastin renewal
  • Restores firmness and bounce
  • Softens fine lines and refines texture
  • Treats face, neck, and body
  • Safe across every skin type
  • Minimal downtime, surgery-free

— Is This Right For You?

Who SkinPen Is For

SkinPen is a workhorse — it does the deep, structural skin work that produces lasting results. Here’s when our team typically recommends it.

01

Acne scars

Atrophic acne scars (rolling, ice pick, or boxcar). SkinPen is FDA-cleared specifically for acne scar treatment — the controlled micro-injuries break up scar tissue and trigger fresh collagen production over a series of sessions.

02

Texture & fine lines

Rough texture, large pores, fine lines that haven’t responded to topical care. The collagen-induction process refines surface and softens lines from the inside out — results build over months.

03

Stretch marks

Stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs, or arms from pregnancy, weight changes, or growth. SkinPen stimulates new collagen and elastin in the affected areas — fading appearance and improving texture over a series of treatments.

04

Skin tone & tightening

Mild laxity, uneven tone, or skin that has lost its bounce. The natural collagen response triggered by SkinPen tightens and firms over months — a slower curve than RF, but completely needle-only.

What to Expect

Your SkinPen journey

SkinPen rebuilds your skin from the inside out. Each step is performed by a board-certified provider in our Cranston, Rhode Island studio.

  1. Step 01

    Consultation

    A conversation about your skin goals — scar revision, texture refinement, or general rejuvenation. We map the affected areas and discuss the realistic timeline for collagen-driven results.

  2. Step 02

    Numbing

    Topical numbing applied for 30–45 minutes. SkinPen treatment is more comfortable when the upper skin layers are fully numbed. We confirm comfort before starting.

  3. Step 03

    Treatment

    The SkinPen device glides across the treated area in passes, creating thousands of microscopic channels. Most clients describe a vibration or pressure sensation. Treatment takes 30–45 minutes.

  4. Step 04

    Recovery

    Pinkness and mild swelling for 24–48 hours, similar to a sunburn. Most clients return to work the next day with mineral makeup. SPF 30+ is essential for the first 2 weeks afterward.

  5. Step 05

    Building

    Real results build over 3–6 months as your body produces new collagen. We schedule subsequent sessions 4–6 weeks apart, with most clients completing a series of 3 for optimal results.

— Common Questions

SkinPen FAQ

SkinPen uses just stainless steel needles to create controlled micro-injuries. RF Microneedling (Lutronic Genius) adds radiofrequency energy through insulated needles for deeper, more targeted tightening. SkinPen is gentler with quicker recovery; RF reaches deeper for more dramatic results. Both work — different goals, different intensities.
We apply topical numbing for 30–45 minutes beforehand. Most clients describe a mild pressure or vibration during treatment — no sharp pain. Treatment takes 30–45 minutes once you’re comfortable.
Pinkness similar to a sunburn for 24–48 hours, sometimes with mild swelling on day 1. Most clients return to work the next day with mineral makeup. By day 3, redness is largely resolved. SPF 30+ for 2 weeks afterward is essential.
Most clients see meaningful results from a single session. For acne scars, fine lines, or stretch marks, 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart are standard. We’ll map your specific plan during consultation.
Initial glow at 7 days. Real results — improved texture, scar fading, tone correction — build over 3–6 months as your body produces new collagen. Patience matters with collagen-induction treatments.
Yes. Because SkinPen relies on mechanical micro-injury rather than light or heat energy, it carries no melanin-absorption risk. Safe for Fitzpatrick I through VI.
Yes — and it’s a powerful combination. We offer SkinPen with PRP (platelet-rich plasma drawn from your own blood) as an optional upgrade. PRP accelerates healing and amplifies collagen response — particularly impactful for scar treatment.
Most healthy adults seeking texture refinement, scar improvement, or natural collagen-driven results are candidates. SkinPen is not recommended during pregnancy, with active acne flares, or recent isotretinoin use within 6 months. We’ll review your skin and history during consultation.
