MICRONEEDLING IN NYC
Microneedling with SkinPen is a revolutionary treatment that uses tiny, fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing process and boosts collagen production, which helps to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, and uneven skin texture. By encouraging cell turnover and rejuvenation, SkinPen Microneedling helps to restore the skin’s natural beauty and youthful appearance. SkinPen holds the distinction of currently being the only class II microneedling device in the United States that has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a powerful combination that rejuvenates your skin from within. This advanced procedure involves the use of fine needles to create micro-channels in the skin, followed by the application of PRP derived from your own blood. The benefits are twofold: Microneedling stimulates collagen production, improving texture, reducing fine lines and wrinkles while PRP enhances the healing process and boosts overall skin health. Together, they promote a more radiant complexion, improved skin elasticity, and a natural, youthful glow. Experience the synergy of science and nature for skin that looks and feels revitalized.

The SkinPen device is then used to create micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, which helps trigger the body’s natural healing process. Most treatments take around 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
