SkinPen Microneedling Q & A

What is SkinPen microneedling?

SkinPen microneedling at Élan Aesthetics uses a tiny pen-like device to make microtears in your skin to boost collagen production. It’s a sophisticated, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that enhances your body's natural healing process using controlled injuries. 

This technology uses ultra-fine, sterile needles to create microchannels in your skin without pain or invasive procedures. It can subtract years from your appearance without any downtime. 

What are the benefits of SkinPen microneedling? 

The perks of choosing SkinPen anti-aging treatments at Élan Aesthetics include:

  • Younger appearance
  • Smoother, firmer skin
  • Boosted collagen and elastin production 
  • Reduced acne scarring
  • Radiant skin
  • Softened fine lines and wrinkles
  • Smaller pores
  • Even skin tone
  • Reduced sun damage and hyperpigmentation 
  • Diminished stretch marks
  • Healthy, refreshed glow
  • Enhanced skin texture 
  • Radiant complexion 
  • Healthy glow

SkinPen technology can achieve dramatic anti-aging results over time by boosting your body’s ability to generate new cells. 

Is SkinPen microneeding right for me?

Dr. Ayoola-Yussuf reviews your goals and examines your skin to learn if you’re a candidate for SkinPen microneedling, other aesthetic treatments, or a combination of wellness solutions to achieve your beauty goals. She tailors a plan offering a flawless outcome. 

What can I expect during SkinPen microneedling treatment?

Dr. Ayoola-Yussuf numbs the treatment area with professional-grade topical numbing cream before microneedling to ensure you avoid discomfort and experience a relaxing session. She uses a tiny pen-like microneedling device to make small microtears in your skin while you rest comfortably. Your treatment might last about 20-30 minutes, sometimes longer.

What happens after SkinPen microneedling?

You may notice mild sensitivity or redness similar to a light sunburn for a day or two after SkinPen microneedling treatment. You can expect a refreshed, healthy glow within several days, and additional improvements during the following 4-6 weeks as new cells form. 

Dr. Ayoola-Yussuf lets you know when it’s okay to wear makeup, exercise strenuously, and be in the sun (with sunscreen or protective clothing). She determines when to schedule your next treatment to optimize skin rejuvenation.
