SkinPen Micro Needling
How it works
To initiate the SkinPen procedure, your skin will undergo thorough cleansing and preparation with a disinfecting agent. Your practitioner might recommend the application of a topical anaesthetic to alleviate discomfort during the treatment—adhering to the professional's instructions is crucial in such cases. SkinFuse Lift HG, a hydrogel product tailored for CIT procedures, is then applied to the skin's surface to prevent friction and abrasion throughout the treatment.
The treating practitioner will affix the sterile, single-use needle cartridge to the SkinPen Precision, determining the appropriate microneedle length for the procedure. Once attached, the clean tip of the SkinPen Precision needle cartridge is moved across the skin's surface to conduct the treatment. Some clients may experience mild discomfort and pinpoint bleeding during the procedure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pre treatment preparation
Your treating practitioner will ask questions regarding your medical history, including any medication or nutritional supplements that you may be taking, to determine if the SkinPen Precision treatment is suitable for you. They will also clarify your goals for treatment, may take photographs, and provide you with information regarding an individual treatment program, realistic treatment outcomes and an explanation of the treatment process. Your treating practitioner will also advise on pre and post-treatment care programs.
Post treatment care
If required, the treating practitioner will clean the skin post-procedure and apply a generous amount of SkinFuse Lift HG to the area treated to maintain a moist wound healing environment to support skin recovery.
What is SkinPen?
The SkinPen, crafted by Bellus Medical, is a reputable microneedling device with a demonstrated ability to effectively address scarring, signs of aging, and various skin conditions, including melasma. Through the creation of micro-injuries, SkinPen kickstarts the body's innate healing mechanisms, leading to a transformative skin rejuvenation.
Is SkinPen good for treating acne and surgical scars?
CIT procedures may improve the appearance of acne and surgical scars. However, they cannot remove them.
How many treatments do I need?
Every client varies with regard to their treatment needs, with most skin concerns requiring more than one procedure to achieve results. Your treating practitioner will create a treatment plan based on your needs and explain this to you during your first consultation. This plan may need to be reviewed over time.
How long until I will see the results?
It may take up to 3-6 months to see results with SkinPen Precision. This is because beneficial effects associated with CIT rely upon the wound healing process within the skin, which takes time; hence, results may take this long to appear physically.
What can I expect post treatment?
The following are expected following SkinPen Precision procedures with experiences varying between clients:
- Low-grade redness and swelling for up to 4 days post-treatment
- Slight discomfort subsiding within 24 hours
- Bruising
- Mild crusting and scabbing for 2-3 days post-treatment
- Short-term skin dryness, tightness, itching and burning
- Skin peeling
- Short-term darkening of skin pigmentation followed by lightening
Are there any side effects with this treatment?
SkinPen Precision procedures are generally very well tolerated, with side effects being rare when a trained professional performs your treatment.
Most side effects will only occur due to not following appropriate pre- and post-treatment skin care instructions as set out by your treating practitioner, applying non-approved skincare to treated skin, and not disclosing vital information to the skin care professional during the consultation.
The side effects may include:
- Skin infection
- Temporary post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
- Tram track appearance on the skin
- Bruising
- Allergic granuloma formation
- Systemic hypersensitivity
- Persistent redness
- Acne and milia
- Reactivation of herpes simplex virus (cold sores)
Is there any downtime?
Depending on the individual, some clients may be able to resume normal activities immediately following a SkinPen Precision procedure, with others resuming normal activities the day after. The exception to this is exercise and activities that induce sweating and heat, as they may aggravate the skin post-procedure. For further guidance, please refer to the post-treatment skincare guide in this booklet.
Can SkinPen remove pigmentation?
CIT procedures may improve the appearance of pigmentation conditions, however cannot completely remove it or prevent it from coming back again.
