SkinPen Microneedling:
Microneedling is the process of creating tiny holes (micro channels) in the skin. This process stimulates your skin to heal itself resulting in collagen and elastin production. At Aire Medical Spa, we use SkinPen, which is the first FDA- cleared microneedling device and has been proven safe and effective as an anti- aging treatment.
SkinPen follows a 3 - step process:
Inflammation- SkinPen perforates the skin, triggering the body to cause an inflammatory response to start healing itself.
Proliferation- the healing process causes the body to create new collagen.
Remodeling- the micro- wounds heal with new skin and blood vessels that are rich in collagen and elastin which improvs the skin youthfulness.

After microneedling, patient experience inflammation to the skin that looks like a sunburn and skin feels warm and tight. Most patients recover within 48-72 hours or less. We recommend that you avoid any exfoliants and make up until the redness subsides. We also recommend staying away from direct sunlight for the first week, after your treatment, and to use broad spectrum SPF to protect your skin and avoid complications. At Aire Medical Spa we will also recommend post- care skin care products to help accelerate your healing.
-
The number of sessions needed will depend on your aesthetic needs and goals. Each session is 4-6 weeks apart. We don’t recommend spacing each session more than 6 weeks apart because that can affect the overall treatment results.
-
Results from SkinPen microneedling are gradual and you can expect to start seeing results 4-6 weeks after your first session and full results can be seen 4-6 weeks after your last session.
