What is SkinPen microneedling?
SkinPen is a professional, FDA cleared microneedling device that uses a cluster of fine, sterile needles to create precise, controlled micro injuries in the skin. This is often called collagen induction therapy because those tiny channels trigger the body’s natural healing response, prompting fresh collagen and elastin production. The result is firmer, smoother, clearer skin that improves gradually and naturally. SkinPen is the first microneedling device cleared by the FDA, which speaks to its safety and results.
Discover the transformative power of SkinPen, a cutting-edge microneedling device designed to address a spectrum of skincare concerns. This innovative tool harnesses the body’s natural healing process by creating controlled micro-injuries, stimulating collagen and elastin production. Whether you’re aiming to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, or uneven texture, SkinPen is your go-to solution.
- Clinically Proven Scar Revision: FDA-cleared to significantly improve the appearance of stubborn acne scars and surgical scars by remodeling fibrous tissue.
- Anti-Aging & Wrinkle Reduction: Naturally fills in “crow’s feet,” forehead lines, and neck wrinkles by thickening the dermal layer.
- Pore Refinement: Tightens the skin’s structural matrix to reduce the visibility of enlarged pores and improve overall “SkinFitness™.”
- Safe for All Skin Tones: Unlike many lasers, SkinPen is a mechanical treatment (non-thermal), making it safe for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI) without the risk of hyperpigmentation.
- Enhanced Product Absorption: Creates channels that allow medical-grade serums, Exosomes, or PRP to penetrate deeper for amplified results.
SkinPen is a versatile “all-seasons” treatment perfect for Wellington residents who want dramatic results with minimal downtime. It is the ideal solution for:
- Acne Scar Sufferers: Those looking to smooth out “pitting” or uneven texture left behind by past breakouts.

|---|---|
| SkinPen microneedling | Mechanical micro channels stimulate collagen, for scars, texture, pores, and lines with minimal downtime, safe for all skin tones |

| Edge ONE CO2 laser | Ablative resurfacing for the most dramatic correction of deep wrinkles and scars, with real downtime |
Your provider will help you choose based on your concerns, your skin tone, and how much downtime you want.
How does microneedling work?
Microneedling works by harnessing your body’s own repair process. The controlled micro channels SkinPen creates signal the skin to rebuild, laying down new collagen and elastin and remodeling scar tissue as it heals. Over the weeks and months after treatment, this rebuilding thickens the dermal layer, smooths texture, softens scars and lines, and refines pores. Because the results come from your own biology, they look and feel completely natural.
Is microneedling good for acne scars?
Yes, and it is one of the best treatments for them. SkinPen is FDA cleared specifically to improve the appearance of acne scars by remodeling the fibrous tissue beneath pitted or uneven scarring. Over a series of treatments, the new collagen fills and smooths depressed scars and evens out texture, which is why microneedling is a go to option for patients living with the reminders of past breakouts. Results build gradually and look natural.
Is microneedling safe for all skin tones?
Yes, and this is a major advantage of SkinPen. Because microneedling is a mechanical, nonthermal treatment rather than a laser that targets pigment with heat, it is safe for all skin types and tones, Fitzpatrick I through VI, without the risk of hyperpigmentation that some lasers carry on deeper skin tones. That makes SkinPen an excellent, inclusive option for our diverse Palm Beach County patients.
Can you add exosomes or PRP to microneedling?
Yes, and it is one of the most powerful ways to enhance your results. The micro channels SkinPen creates act like tiny pathways that let medical grade serums, exosomes, or PRP penetrate far deeper than they could on their own, amplifying the treatment.
- Exosomes: advanced regenerative messengers that support healing, collagen, and radiance.
- PRP (platelet rich plasma): concentrated growth factors from your own blood, often called a vampire facial when paired with microneedling.
- Medical grade serums: targeted actives chosen for your skin and goals.
Dr. Banionis and your esthetician will recommend the right enhancement for your concerns.
Who is a good candidate for microneedling?
SkinPen is a versatile, all seasons treatment ideal for many patients, including those with acne scars or uneven texture, sun damaged or weathered skin, early signs of aging or crepey skin, and anyone who prefers stimulating their own natural collagen rather than using synthetic fillers. With only mild pinkness for a day or two, it also suits busy professionals who cannot afford long recovery. A consultation confirms the best plan for your skin.
Does microneedling hurt?
Comfort is a priority. Before treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied so the procedure is comfortable for most patients, who describe a light vibrating or sandpaper like sensation. The treatment is quick, and any discomfort is brief. Your provider will make sure you are comfortable throughout.
How much downtime does microneedling require?
Microneedling has minimal downtime, typically about twenty four to forty eight hours of mild pinkness similar to a light sunburn, sometimes with slight swelling or dryness. Most people return to normal activities right away and can usually wear mineral makeup after a day. Because the skin is renewing and more sensitive to the sun, diligent SPF afterward is essential, especially in the Florida sun.
How many microneedling treatments will I need?
Most people see the best results from a series of about three to six treatments spaced roughly four to six weeks apart, since collagen builds gradually between sessions. Acne scars and deeper concerns often need more sessions than a general glow and maintenance plan. After your series, periodic maintenance keeps your skin looking its best.
What is the aftercare for microneedling?
Simple aftercare protects your results and helps your skin heal:
- Keep the skin clean and hydrated with the gentle products we recommend
- Avoid makeup for about twenty four hours, then use clean, mineral makeup
- Avoid sun exposure and wear strict daily SPF as the skin renews
- Skip strenuous exercise, saunas, and hot yoga for about twenty four to forty eight hours
- Avoid active ingredients like retinol and acids for a few days
- Follow any specific instructions from your provider
