SKINPEN® MICRONEEDLING Treatment in Sacramento, CA

Skin Repair Treatment

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure many people use to achieve a more youthful and smooth skin appearance. The system is performed with a medical-grade device that has many tiny needles attached to a rolling pin. The tool is moved across the targeted skin, creating hundreds (or thousands) of micro-wounds in the top layer of the skin.

This process triggers your body’s natural healing response, which includes flushing the “damaged” areas with collagen, elastin, and other healing factors. The result is a refreshed appearance that is smoother and tighter than it was previously.

Microneedling FAQ’s

By the age of 20, it is expected that we will lose 1% of our collagen production each year. When you consider the impact of that loss over five, ten, or more years, you can begin to get an idea of why many people suffer from fine lines and wrinkles as early as the age of 25 or 30. Not to mention, there are a host of other conditions that can negatively impact the texture and tone of our skin.

Environmental factors are also a paramount concern. UV light is one of the most detrimental exposures that you can have — unfortunately, it is also the one that we all have to deal with on a daily basis. But it isn’t just sunlight that can cause problems. Pollution, free radicals, and a ton of other virtually invisible things floating around in the air around us can hurt the integrity of our skin as well.

Without microneedling, there would be very few ways to reverse the damage all of these factors can cause. And since many of the alternatives are not suitable for all skin types or include harsh chemicals that many people would choose to avoid, a big hole in cosmetic medicine would form.

Microneedling is unique in its ability to effectively treat all skin types and tones. Whereas other chemical or light-based treatments may not be well suited for darker skin, microneedling can be performed on anyone since our healing responses are all the same.

There may be some preexisting conditions that prevent you from becoming a good candidate for this treatment, but they are very rare diagnoses that you will likely be aware of prior to coming in for a consultation.

The best candidates for microneedling are those who do not smoke, drink excessively, or use drugs. All three of these lifestyle decisions can lead to poor wound healing and underwhelming results that will likely leave you unhappy and unfulfilled. You should also have realistic expectations about what microneedling can achieve before the day of your procedure. Otherwise, you might find yourself upset about an otherwise successful session. If you have any active breakouts or open lesions, you will need to wait for those wounds to heal before undergoing treatment.

Microneedling can treat a host of skin conditions, including:

  • Fine lines
  • Wrinkles
  • Acne scars
  • Stretch marks
  • Enlarged pores

SkinPen® Precision is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device for use on the face and body. It’s been clinically tested and proven to safely and effectively treat wrinkles and acne scarring.

We believe in only providing the best possible care to our patients, and the SkinPen® is our way of ensuring that you get the best microneedling results possible. Aesthetic Envy uses Progen PRP for enhancing skin rejuvenation, and supporting various cosmetic treatments

A variety of tiny sterile needles are arrayed on the tip of the only FDA-cleared microneedling device, which is designed to penetrate just below the skin’s surface.

The microneedles gently create tiny wounds, called micro-channels, in the epidermis and dermis, prompting your body to produce new collagen and elastin without causing scar tissue formation. This helps the body soften the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles, and also improves overall skin tone and skin texture for a more youthful appearance.

The SkinPen® Microneedling treatment begins with a brief facial cleansing and the application of numbing cream to keep the procedure as comfortable as possible.

Then the microneedling device is applied to the treatment areas, where it produces tiny punctures to prompt the body’s natural process to restore healthy skin.

At the end of the collagen induction therapy, the practitioner will provide you with post-care products to help soothe and nourish treated skin and support optimal healing.

PRP, an abbreviation for platelet-rich plasma, is a substance that derives directly from your blood. A simple blood draw is performed (just like when you are donating blood or have to do lab work), and the contents are then taken and put into a centrifuge. This device spins the blood rapidly, separating the healing factors from the rest of the plasma.

The final result is a solution that is rich in all the materials your body needs to jumpstart the healing process. Applying this substance during microneedling treatment allows it to reach deeper into the skin than it would generally be able to absorb. This method provides a secondary way for your body to flood the skin with the nutrients it needs for dramatic aesthetic improvement.

As a minimally invasive procedure, there is no lengthy preparation period for microneedling treatment. But there are a few precautions you should be aware of, just in case. You should:

  • Avoid excessive sunlight exposure, smoking, and unprescribed medications leading up to your session
  • Wait at least six months after isotretinoin use before having your microneedling procedure since it impairs wound healing is impaired and increases the risk of scarring.
  • Avoid spray tanning lotions for 48 hours prior to your procedure
  • Discontinue harsh topical products that contain Retinol or vitamin A for 24 hours prior to your procedure

If you are on autoimmune therapy, it is best to speak with your primary care physician regarding the safety of microneedling for your specific condition.

A microneedling procedure is very straightforward and can be broken down into four easy steps.

  • Optional: If you use PRP during your microneedling procedure, a blood draw will be performed, and the gathered contents will be purified.
  • Your face is thoroughly cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to numb the skin and ensure you are as comfortable as possible.
  • The SkinPen® microneedling device will be gently rolled throughout the treated area. It is normal for one location to receive several passes.
  • Your face will be cleansed once again to prepare you for the beginning of your recovery process. In some cases, a gentle solution will be applied to help your results.

The recovery process for microneedling is reasonably quick. You can expect side effects like minor pain or discomfort, swelling, or redness for up to 48 hours. Most patients notice these effects fade by the end of day one, but it is entirely up to your body and how it handles the treatment process. You can return to work the same day your procedure was performed if you don’t mind appearing a little red or swollen at work.

We do recommend that all of our patients avoid strenuous exercise or perspiration since blood flow and sweat can irritate the recently treated skin. You should also clear all cosmetics with your medical professional, as many compounds can actually be problematic when used in tandem with a microneedling regimen.

The results of microneedling are not permanent; in fact, you will likely need touch-up procedures performed intermittently to ensure you maintain optimal results. However, this is the same for every aesthetic treatment on the market. There is no product that can stop the aging process in its tracks. Your face will appear smoother, more uniform, and much more youthful after having a microneedling regimen performed. The results of micronееdling can last for several months and, in some cases, up to a year. However, individual еxpеriеncеs may vary.

Thе numbеr may vary based on individual skin nееds. Dеер scarring or wrinklеs may require additional sessions, ensuring a personalized approach to rеjuvеnation. Unlock your skin’s potential with a trеatmеnt plan tailored to your unique beauty journey.

Discovеr if micronееdling is thе right fit for your skin nееds. Idеal for various skin types, microneedling addresses concerns such as finе linеs, wrinklеs, and scarring. It stimulatеs collagеn production, fostеring a naturally youthful complеxion. Whether you sееk subtle improvеmеnts or wish to diminish specific skin issues, micronееdling offеrs a vеrsatilе solution.
