SkinPen Microneedling
Transform your skin at Zi Medspa
Collagen can improve skin texture and reduce wrinkles and fine lines. One way to boost collagen production is to use the body’s own healing properties. SkinPen microneedling is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves creating tiny micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production.
This anti-aging and facial rejuvenation treatment is available in a comfortable and relaxing environment at Zi MedSpa.
About SkinPen Microneedling
First, one of our experienced healthcare providers will meet with you to discuss your goals and take your medical history. If it is determined that SkinPen microneedling is right for you, treatment involves several steps.
First, the treatment area will be gently cleansed to remove any makeup, dirt, or oils from the skin. A numbing cream may be applied to reduce any discomfort during the procedure.
A healthcare provider will then use the SkinPen device – a handheld pen-like device with small, fine needles at the tip – to create micro-channels on the skin’s surface. These tiny injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response and trigger the production of new collagen and elastin.
Next, a hydrating serum or other nourishing product may be applied to the skin after the microneedling procedure to promote healing and enhance the results.
Finally, sunscreen will be applied to the treatment area to protect the skin from harmful UV rays, which can cause further damage and slow down the healing process.
