The Benefits Of The Micropen

How Long Micropen Treatments Can Take

Treatment times vary depending on the size of the area or areas being treated, but usually, the procedure takes 20-40 minutes.

How Is The Procedure Done?

A needle containing 12 tiny micro-needles is attached to the MicroPen. The aesthetician will use a layer of topical gel on the area that is being treated and select the appropriate setting for the patient, based on the patient’s unique skin needs. The needle will be pressed against the skin and move smoothly through the area until the treated area has been covered.

What To Expect From The Treatment

The MicroPen treatment feels like light sandpaper being brushed across the skin. While some areas are more sensitive, the speed of the reciprocating needle tip will reduce discomfort while the hydrating gel used will make the treatment more comfortable.

What Is The Downtime After Treatment?

Immediately after the treatment, you will notice bright red coloring on the affected area. The usual healing time is 2-4 days after the treatment but could be as little as 24 hours. Some skin products provided by skincare providers can help speed up the process of healing. The redness can also be covered by makeup during this time.

How Many Treatments Should A Patient Have?

Some patients find that one treatment per year achieves optimal results.

However, to treat hyperpigmentation it is recommended that patients have two to three treatments about six to eight weeks apart. For patients with deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks or acne scars, it is recommended that patients have six to eight treatments in six-week intervals.

When To Expect Your Micropen Results

You will notice your skin glowing within one day, and continually improving for the days and weeks after, as your skin produces more collagen. The results of this treatment show skin improvement continually for up to six months.
