SkinPen microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, is a popular minimally invasive procedure that can treat many skin concerns by stimulating the body’s natural healing process. To achieve brighter skin, reduce facial acne scars, and create a more youthful appearance, consider SkinPen microneedling at Lakefront Wellness.
SkinPen is the first FDA-approved microneedling treatment designed without chemicals or heat. This clinically tested and proven treatment is unparalleled for its commitment to safety and efficacy in microneedling treatments for all skin types. SkinPen is only performed by leading dermatologists and estheticians in professional settings so that you can rely on safe treatment and consistently great results.
SkinPen treatments work in three steps: inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. First, the SkinPen device penetrates the skin’s surface with several microneedles. This triggers a natural immune response to disinfect, remove debris, and increase blood flow to the treated area while activating the creation of new tissue. The healing process will also stimulate collagen production to improve the appearance of aging skin. This process of collagen rebuilding is called proliferation and also includes the development of a new network of blood vessels.
Finally, the new dermal tissues rich in collagen and elastin proteins are formed over time, remodeling the skin with a smoother, more youthful look. The new tissues replace damaged skin cells to reduce the appearance of acne scars, neck wrinkles, enlarged pores, stretch marks, and uneven skin tone and skin texture. Most patients may need multiple treatments to see transformation from the natural wound healing process.

You should wait for treatment for an active skin infection or acne breakout. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should also wait to receive treatment. Clients taking Accutane for acne or medications for bleeding disorders should discuss this with our staff prior to treatment.
To start your treatment, our aesthetician will cleanse the skin and apply a topical numbing cream. The SkinPen device is then passed over the skin in the desired treatment areas and the microneedles puncture the skin, creating microchannels or tiny holes. Results can be seen after 1-3 30-minute treatment sessions.
After each treatment, there is little to no downtime, but you may have mild swelling and redness for 2-4 days. Improvements in your skin quality develop gradually as collagen rebuilds but most clients will see the final results within 6 months. You will see visible improvements in fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, and the overall quality of your skin.
