What is SkinPen microneedling?
SkinPen is a professional, FDA-cleared microneedling device that uses fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled micro-channels in the surface of the skin. Those micro-channels signal your body to produce fresh collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep skin firm, smooth, and even. Because the improvement comes from your own healing response, it builds gradually in the weeks after each treatment. It is a precise, controlled treatment, a long way from the rollers sold for use at home.
SkinPen is best known for improving the texture and tone of the skin.
Over a series of treatments, skin looks smoother, firmer, and more even, with a healthier glow.
The SkinPen Difference
Not all microneedling is the same. SkinPen uses a sterile, single-use cartridge for every treatment, and it lets your provider control the needle depth precisely for each area of the face. That means a safer, more comfortable treatment and more consistent results than a one-size-fits-all roller or an at-home device. When you are putting needles to your skin, the device and the hands behind it matter.
Customized treatments with Jen
Every treatment at Derma is tailored to your skin by our aesthetician, Jen. Once SkinPen creates those micro-channels, your skin absorbs what is applied to it far more deeply than usual, so Jen can pair your microneedling with targeted boosters to take your results further:SkinPen with PRP, the Vampire Facial. Using growth factors drawn from a small sample of your own blood, PRP speeds healing and amplifies collagen production for a stronger, longer-lasting glow.
SkinPen with ZO Firming Serum. A medical-grade serum that reinforces skin structure and elasticity, driven deep into the skin during your treatment for a visible tightening effect.
What to expect
Before your treatment, Jen applies a numbing cream so you stay comfortable. The session itself is quick, and most people describe the feeling as a light, prickly vibration rather than pain. Right afterward your skin will look flushed, a little like a mild sunburn. That settles over the next day or two, and many people are back to normal within 24 to 48 hours.
Your results
Many people notice a fresh glow within the first week, with firmer, smoother, more even skin developing over the following weeks as new collagen forms. Because the results build on each other, most concerns respond best to a short series of treatments rather than a single visit. At your first visit, Jen will map out a plan that fits your skin and your goals.
