What is SkinPen Microneedling?

How Microneedling Works

SkinPen uses tiny, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates the natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer skin.

Treatment Process

Sessions typically last 30–45 minutes. After cleansing, a numbing cream is applied for comfort, and the SkinPen device is passed across the skin. Mild redness may occur for 1–2 days.

Safety and FDA Approval

SkinPen was the first microneedling device to receive FDA clearance (in 2018). It is safe, sterile, and proven effective for acne scars and fine lines.

Areas Commonly Treated

DiamondGlow is most often performed on the face, but can also be used on the neck, chest, and back to improve skin texture, clarity, and hydration.

Microneedling at Seaport Medspa

A Patient-Focused Approach

At Seaport Medspa, SkinPen® Microneedling is performed in a medically guided setting. Our providers carefully assess each patient’s skin and treatment goals, ensuring safe, tailored results that support both short-term improvements and long-term skin health.

The Science Behind SkinPen

Microneedling works by taking advantage of the skin’s natural wound-healing process. The SkinPen creates micro-injuries that trigger the release of growth factors, stimulating collagen and elastin. Unlike over-the-counter rollers or uncertified devices, SkinPen is FDA-cleared, sterile, and precise, making it a safe and effective medical treatment for skin rejuvenation.

The Treatment Experience

Appointments typically take 30–45 minutes. After applying a numbing cream, the SkinPen is gently moved across the treatment area. Patients may feel a light vibration or prickling sensation, but discomfort is minimal. Redness and mild sensitivity are common for 24–48 hours, similar to a light sunburn. Most patients return to normal activities the next day.

Expected Results

SkinPen treatments improve skin gradually as collagen and elastin develop over time. Results often become noticeable within a few weeks, with full benefits building over several months. For optimal outcomes, a series of three treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is commonly recommended. Improvements can include smoother texture, softer scars, refined pores, and a more even skin tone.

Safety and Research

SkinPen received FDA clearance in 2018, making it the first microneedling device to meet these standards. It is safe for all skin types when performed by trained professionals. Side effects are temporary and mild, such as redness, swelling, or sensitivity.

Areas of Treatment

SkinPen is commonly used on the face for acne scars, fine lines, and texture, but it can also treat the neck and décolletage. Its versatility makes it a strong option for patients seeking overall skin rejuvenation without surgery or fillers.
