Are you looking for a refresh for your face and neck? The New Year is a great time to commit to yourself and your self-care journey!
I LOVE microneedling, specifically SkinPen, to give my skin a refreshed, glowy look! If you are looking for an overall improvement in texture, fine lines and wrinkles, improved skin tone and a glow-up look, SkinPen microneedling is a fantastic option!
Microneedling is not a new idea. By creating small, microtraumas to the skin with needles, we are forcing your skin to produce more collagen to repair these microtraumas. This extra collagen will increase the thickness of your skin, improve fine lines/wrinkles, smooth out texture or scar concerns from acne and give your skin this beautiful glow quality that clients all fall in love with!
Unlike with other procedures such as lasers or chemical peels, microneedling is safe on ALL SKIN TYPES/COLORS and safe ALL YEAR LONG. YES, even during the summer! This is such a versatile treatment with proven safety and efficacy across all ages and skin types and colors!
At Metro ENT & Facial Plastic Surgery, we recommend a series of 3 SkinPen treatments, spaced 1 month apart. You will be a little red for 36-48hours after each treatment. Following each treatment, you cannot wash your face for 24 hours and no working out for 48 hours afterwards. Typically, you won't see much of an improvement after the first treatment, since it takes time for you to generate more collagen, so don't give up! This is why a series of 3 is recommend as your initial treatment package.
You can combine other treatments on top of your SkinPen session such as exosomes, PRP or PRF to give your SkinPen treatment an extra boost!
Following your initial series of 3, we recommend maintenance treatments every 4-6 months to help maintain your new look!
Sometimes, if your main concern is acne scarring, this may take more than the initial 3 treatment session. We are here to guide you through all of your treatment options and plans to get you your best face forward!
