SkinPen (Micro-Needling)
Kelamis Plastic Surgery is proud to offer the only FDA-approved micro-needling device (SkinPen) which is clinically proven with visible results seen after one treatment. SkinPen creates controlled micro-injuries that stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing response which initiates the release of natural growth factors to improve collagen formation and cellular tissue resulting in improved appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Is SkinPen For Me?
SkinPen can help correct:
- SkinPen rejuvenates skin from the inside out for younger-looking skin.
- Results are natural, safe and effective for all skin tones and types.
- Jump-starts new collagen without heat or chemicals.
- Quick-and-easy with little to no downtime.
How Does Microneedling work?
SkinPen creates thousands of microchannels that stimulate your body’s natural wound-healing process while minimizing cellular damage. This rejuvenates your skin from the inside out. The result is effective remodeling of scar tissue, while keeping the skin’s overall structure intact.
What Can You Expect?
SkinPen is a simple, comfortable, and effective treatment for skin rejuvenation. Most people see results in as few as three 30-minute sessions.
Before Treatment
Our skin specialist will gently cleanse your skin. Topical anesthesia may be administered to ensure maximum comfort during the treatment.
During Treatment
- Skin Pen creates millions of controlled microchannels in the skin. This jump starts the production of collagen and elastin and encourages the release of growth factors that recruit and increase reparative cells. The result is a cascade of healing processes that can continue for months following your treatment.
- The SkinPen treatment lasts approximately 30 minutes. Depending on whether an anesthetic is used prior to treatment, your entire treatment session may last up to one hour- still plenty of time to schedule your treatment before work or during your lunch hour. Be sure to speak with your provider before you come to get an accurate estimate, so you know how to plan your visit.
After Treatment
- Your skin may initially appear slightly pink to red, similar to a mild sunburn. This is normal and should subside within 24 to 72 hours.
- Some people see rejuvenated skin after just one treatment, and results may continue to improve for three to six months following your last treatment.
