Microneedling SkinPen Treatments

Microneedling at Prejuve MedSpa: So which modality will give you the benefits you’re looking for?

When considering microneedling, it’s important to choose the right modality based on your specific skin or hair concerns. Here are a few things to consider:

  1. Depth of Needling:
    • Superficial Microneedling (0.25-0.5 mm): Ideal for improving skin texture, fine lines, and product absorption.
    • Deeper Microneedling (1.5-2.5 mm): More effective for treating scars and stretch marks. Deeper penetration is also used for hair restoration treatments.
  2. Device Type:
    • Dermaroller: A manual device with a rolling mechanism. It’s generally used at home but offers less precision and can be more uncomfortable.
    • Dermapen/Microneedling Pens: Automated pens that allow for adjustable needle depths and greater precision. This is the preferred method in professional settings.
    • Morpheus8: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to heat the tissue, which can enhance collagen stimulation. This is particularly effective for more severe wrinkles, scars, and skin tightening.
  3. Add-Ons:
    • PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): Often combined with microneedling to accelerate healing and enhance results. PRP uses your own blood to extract growth factors that promote regeneration.
    • Topical Treatments: Vitamin C serums, hyaluronic acid, and other growth factors can be applied immediately after microneedling to maximize their absorption and benefits.
  4. Treatment Area:
    • Face: Focused on skin rejuvenation, treating wrinkles, pigmentation, and scars.
    • Scalp: Used for hair loss treatments, often combined with PRP or hair growth serums.
    • Body: For stretch marks and surgical scars.
  5. Skin Type:
    • Lighter Skin Tones: This skin type generally tolerates microneedling well, but it’s essential to avoid excessive sun exposure post-treatment.
    • Darker Skin Tones: There’s a higher risk of hyperpigmentation, so choosing a provider with experience in treating darker skin is crucial. RF microneedling may be a better option for skin tightening without the same risk of pigmentation issues.

While microneedling is generally safe, it’s important to consider potential side effects such as redness, swelling, hyperpigmentation, scarring, and bleeding. Also, we find clients see microneedling as scary, but we use numbing medicine to help with comfort and most people tolerate it very well. Our experienced providers ensure that each treatment is customized to your skin type and concerns, minimizing risks and maximizing results. We focus on providing safe, effective, and tailored treatments that help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Choosing the right microneedling modality depends on your specific skin or hair concerns, desired outcomes, and skin type. Whether you’re looking for superficial improvements in texture and fine lines, deeper treatments for scars and stretch marks, or advanced skin tightening and wrinkle reduction, Prejuve Medspa offers a range of options to suit your needs. Our team is dedicated to creating a personalized treatment plan, ensuring comfort, safety, and exceptional results.

At Prejuve Medspa, we offer advanced microneedling treatments designed to rejuvenate your skin and stimulate hair regrowth.

SkinPen is a medical-grade, FDA-cleared microneedling device manufactured by Crown Aesthetics, designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and overall skin texture by stimulating the skin’s natural wound healing process. It works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin using tiny needles, which stimulate the body’s natural healing response, prompting the production of new collagen and elastin, essential for healthy, youthful skin.

This process, known as collagen induction therapy, helps rejuvenate the skin by promoting the growth of new skin cells, leading to smoother, firmer skin with improved texture and tone over time. SkinPen is safe for all skin types and can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, and décolletage, making it particularly effective in treating acne scars, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation.

One of the benefits of SkinPen treatment is minimal downtime, with patients typically experiencing only mild redness and swelling immediately after the procedure, which usually subsides within a day or two. Additionally, the depth and intensity of the treatment.

can be customized based on the specific needs and goals of the individual, making it a versatile option for addressing various skin concerns.

Microneedling is typically done in a series of treatments for optimal results, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart, depending on the treatment goals.

We utilize Morpheus8, an innovative combination of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This powerful treatment penetrates deeper layers of the skin, offering enhanced collagen stimulation and effective skin tightening. Morpheus8 is particularly effective for addressing severe wrinkles, scars, and skin laxity, making it an ideal choice for those seeking transformative results without surgery.

Morpheus8 can be used on various areas of the body, not just the face. Its combination of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy allows it to target deeper layers of the skin, making it effective for tightening and rejuvenating different body areas. These areas include decollate, abdomen, thighs, hands, and knees.

The frequency of Morpheus8 treatments depends on the individual’s skin condition and desired results. Generally, most people start with a series of 3 to 4 treatments spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart to achieve optimal results. This schedule allows the skin to heal and for collagen production to be stimulated effectively between sessions.

After the initial series, maintenance treatments are usually recommended every 6 to 12 months to sustain the results. However, the exact timing can vary depending on factors like skin type, age, and specific treatment goals.
