FAQs – SkinPen Microneedling
What is SkinPen microneedling?
SkinPen microneedling uses a microneedling pen to create tiny micro-channels in the skin, stimulating collagen production for smoother, firmer skin.
What does SkinPen microneedling treat?
Microneedling is highly effective for treating acne scars, fine lines, uneven texture, and enlarged pores.
Does SkinPen microneedling hurt?
While you may feel a mild sensation during the treatment, most patients report minimal discomfort. To ensure your experience is as comfortable as possible, we can apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure. This helps to significantly reduce any pain or sensitivity during treatment.

Before and after microneedling, you can expect a noticeable improvement in skin texture, with scars and fine lines becoming less visible as collagen production increases.

What is the aftercare for SkinPen microneedling?
Microneedling aftercare includes avoiding sun exposure, keeping the skin hydrated, and using gentle skincare products to support healing.
Can SkinPen microneedling help with acne scars?

Can I get SkinPen microneedling If I still have active acne?
It’s best to wait until active acne is under control before starting SkinPen microneedling treatments. Performing microneedling on active breakouts can irritate the skin, spread bacteria, and potentially worsen acne. Once your acne is managed, SkinPen can effectively treat acne scars and improve skin texture. If you’re unsure, our team can assess your skin and guide you on the best treatment timeline during your consultation.
Is there downtime after SkinPen microneedling?
There is minimal downtime, with some redness immediately after the treatment, which usually resolves within a few days.
