Skinpen Microneedling in Phoenix & Surprise, AZ

The SkinPen Microneedling, performed by our skin rejuvenation experts at Matisse Medspa, can help your skin transform, becoming softer, smoother, evenly toned and textured. The tiny needles in the device create microchannels of damage in the skin, triggering healing and the natural production of collagen for a natural, refreshed look.

How does SkinPen Microneedling work?

The microneedles in the device pierce the skin, triggering the body’s natural immune system to get to work on healing the skin. Blood flow to the region is increased, and new skin cells produced. The new skin cells include collagen, the natural firming, smoothing proteins that create a firm, supple quality.

New tiny blood vessels develop, delivering nutrients to the skin for improved health and glow. As the microchannels are healed with cell growth and blood vessels, the skin becomes stronger, healthier, and smoother.

Who is a candidate for SkinPen Microneedling?

Most people are good candidates for a SkinPen treatment. Your results can be enhanced with PRP, or platelet rich plasma, for a truly exceptional improvement in skin quality.

PRP microneedling with SkinPen

The combination of SkinPen Microneedling and PRP can produce remarkable improvements in skin quality. In this procedure, a small sample of blood is drawn and then processed to concentrate the growth factors. This serum is applied to the skin after microneedling, flowing into the skin through the tiny channels, triggering more extensive healing and regeneration.

What is the recovery time?

The recovery from microneedling generally takes about 24 hours, although everyone is different. You may see pinpoint spots where the needles entered the skin, which disappear quickly. Initially, the facial skin will appear red, as if sunburned, and may feel tight or sensitive. If the skin around your eyes was treated, you may have minor bruising, which can be hidden with makeup.

Avoid vigorous exercise for 24 to 48 hours. In about two days, your skin may feel dry, and flake, indicating cell turnover. Apply a hydrating moisturizer. Do not rub or scrub your skin or use any exfoliating products. Ensure you wear sunscreen when out of doors.

Hair restoration with SkinPen Microneedling

If your hair is thinning, and losing its luster, appearing dull and dry, the underlying reason can be reduced blood flow to the hair-producing follicles. SkinPen microneedling on your scalp can help the hair follicles rejuvenate, as a new network of tiny blood vessels forms, and fresh cells develop. To keep your hair looking its best, speak with our hair restoration specialists about SkinPen Microneedling, and whether this treatment is right for you.

Microneedling FAQ

Can Microneedling help with hair loss?

Yes, microneedling can help with hair loss by stimulating blood circulation and encouraging hair follicle rejuvenation. When combined with topical treatments like minoxidil or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, microneedling can enhance the absorption and effectiveness of these treatments, potentially improving hair growth and thickness.

Is Microneedling suitable for all skin types?

Microneedling is generally safe for all skin types, including darker skin tones, as it does not involve heat or light, which can cause pigmentation issues. However, individuals with certain skin conditions, such as active acne, eczema, or rosacea, should consult with a dermatologist to determine if microneedling is appropriate for them.

Can Microneedling be done at home?

While there are at-home microneedling devices available, professional microneedling performed by a trained practitioner is generally more effective and safer. At-home devices typically use shorter needles and may not provide the same depth of treatment. Additionally, there is a higher risk of infection or skin damage if proper sterilization and technique are not followed at home. It is recommended to consult with a professional for the best results.
