Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure for your skin. SkinPen’s microneedles pierce the skin, triggering your immune system to disinfect the wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow, and begin to create new tissue. The micro-wounds created by SkinPen are rebuilt with new granulation cells that include collagen proteins. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops. Remodeling the wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels which are composed of rich collagen and elastin proteins. These proteins improve skin youthfulness. You may consider Microneedling if you are concerned about:
