SkinPen® Microneedling

SkinPen® is a traditional microneedling device that creates precise microchannels without adding heat or radiofrequency energy. This treatment is particularly useful for clients interested in improving facial acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, neck wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, sun damage, and overall skin texture. SkinPen® may also be used to improve the appearance of certain surgical or injury scars.

Morpheus8 RF Microneedling

Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered beneath the skin, allowing the treatment to address deeper tissues while encouraging robust collagen remodeling. This RF microneedling option is well suited to concerns such as loose skin, wrinkles, uneven texture, and diminished firmness. Areas of treatment extend beyond the face, neck, and décolletage to include the arms, bra area, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and legs.

Ariessence Pure PDGF+

Ariessence Pure PDGF+ (platelet-derived growth factor) is a topical regenerative treatment that can be paired with SkinPen® and Morpheus8 to complement the microneedling process. Unlike treatments derived from the client’s own blood, Ariessence PDGF does not require a blood draw or centrifugation.

Good Candidates for Microneedling

Microneedling is appropriate for adults seeking meaningful improvements in their skin without undergoing surgery. A good candidate understands that results develop as the skin responds to treatment and is willing to follow a recommended treatment schedule and aftercare plan. Because SkinPen® and Morpheus8 have different applications, a consultation helps determine which technology better matches each client’s needs and whether Ariessence PDGF can be added.

The Procedure

Your appointment begins with an evaluation of your skin and treatment goals. Your medspa provider will select SkinPen® or Morpheus8, determine the appropriate treatment settings, cleanse the targeted area, and apply a topical numbing product for comfort. Exact treatment application details will vary depending on the device used and if Ariessence PDGF is administered.

After Your Microneedling Session

Microneedling recovery varies between clients and treatment types. Temporary redness and sensitivity are common. Your provider will explain how to cleanse, moisturize, and protect your skin as it recovers. Avoid unnecessary sun exposure and irritating skincare products during early recovery, and use appropriate sun protection as directed.

Microneedling FAQs

Does microneedling hurt?

K
L

Most clients describe microneedling as manageable rather than painful, especially when a topical numbing product is used beforehand. Exact sensations vary depending on the treatment area and settings utilized.

Should men shave before facial microneedling?

K
L

Men may be asked to shave before facial microneedling so the device can move evenly across the skin. Shaving should be timed carefully to avoid arriving with razor irritation or cuts.

Can microneedling be performed if I have eczema or psoriasis?

K
L

Active eczema or psoriasis in the proposed treatment area may make microneedling inappropriate until the condition is under control. We can evaluate your skin beforehand and determine whether treatment can be performed safely.
