Revitalize. Restore. Rejuvenate.
Microneedling is one of the most effective ways to naturally improve skin texture, tone, and firmness — without the downtime of more invasive treatments. At SG Aesthetics & Wellness, our providers use advanced microneedling technology to stimulate collagen production, helping your skin look smoother, tighter, and more radiant over time.
What is SkinPen® Microneedling?
SkinPen® is an advanced microneedling therapy system that uses ultra-fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny channels trigger your body’s natural collagen and elastin production — a process known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) — to repair and renew the skin from within.
This treatment is effective for improving:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Dullness and loss of firmness
Why We Love SkinPen®
Unlike traditional microneedling tools, SkinPen® offers precise, consistent, and customizable results with minimal discomfort or downtime. It’s safe for all skin types and tones, and because it stimulates your skin’s natural healing process, results continue to improve over time.
Many patients notice a radiant glow within days — with smoother, more youthful-looking skin developing over several weeks as collagen rebuilds.
Enhance Your Results
For deeper rejuvenation, your provider may recommend pairing SkinPen® microneedling with:
- PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) – to accelerate healing and enhance radiance
- Medical-grade serums – to target specific concerns such as pigmentation, hydration, or texture
Who is a Candidate for Skin Pen Microneedling?
Microneedling with SkinPen® is safe and effective for all skin types and tones, making it a great option for almost anyone looking to improve their skin’s texture, tone, or firmness.
You may be a good candidate if you want to:
- Soften fine lines and wrinkles
- Minimize acne scars or stretch marks
- Reduce the appearance of large pores
- Smooth uneven texture or dullness
- Rejuvenate skin without surgery or extended downtime
Because SkinPen® works by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, results are gradual and long-lasting — perfect for those seeking subtle, natural improvement.
Your provider will assess your skin during a personalized consultation to ensure microneedling is the right fit for your goals and skin health.
What to Expect
A typical SkinPen® treatment takes about 45–60 minutes. You may experience mild redness or sensitivity similar to a light sunburn for 24–48 hours. Most patients return to normal activities the next day — revealing fresher, more luminous skin.
For optimal results, a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is often recommended.
