The Rejuvapen Microneedling treatment stimulates the production of collagen in the skin. Since micro-needling enhances the production of collagen the treatment can reverse the signs of sun damage, improve the appearance of acne scars, stretch marks and hyper-pigmentation. Fine lines and wrinkles can be reduced and an overall healthier appearance of the skin will occur.
What does Rejuvapen Microneedling treat?
Rejuvapen Microneedling softens wrinkles and fine lines, improves acne scarring, diminishes hyperpigmentation, evens skin tone and texture, and improves the overall health and circulation of the skin.
How does Rejuvapen Microneedling work?
Rejuvapen utilizes precisely spaced micro needles in a small cartridge to create invisible, vertical, micro perforations into the top layers of the skin. As a result, the skin shifts its natural repair mechanism into high gear and starts producing collagen and elastin. The self-repairing property of the skin is a 100% natural form of skin renewal. Adjustable needle length allows customized treatments from skin freshening to deep scar repair anywhere on the body.
How many treatments are needed?
It’s recommended in a series of 3-6 sessions depending on the condition of the skin.
When will I see results from a Rejuvapen Microneedling treatment?
Patients may notice healthier-looking skin right away. However, dermal collagen remodeling occurs over time and it would not be realistic to expect damage that has happened to the skin over a long period of time to disappear right away. Final results will be seen 3-6 months after the last treatment.
Is this safe for my skin type?
Rejuvapen can be used on all skin types.
What are possible side effects?
There are a few temporary side effects to be aware of with microneedling. The procedure causes short-term swelling, redness, and skin flaking, which can last for a few days. Most people can return to wearing regular makeup within a day of treatment. Skin will be more sun-sensitive after treatment, so sunscreen is also advised. Microneedling may worsen active breakouts, so people with active inflammatory acne or oral herpes should not be treated with microneedling until the lesions have cleared. Those with a history of oral herpes may be prescribed an oral antiviral medication for one week following treatment because the procedure may stimulate a new cold sore.
FAQ
Rejuvapen microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing process. This leads to increased collagen production, which helps improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Rejuvapen is effective for a variety of skin issues, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Hyperpigmentation
- Sun damage
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone
- Stretch marks
- Mild skin laxity
The Rejuvapen device uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, which activates the skin’s repair mechanisms. This process promotes the production of new collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer, smoother, and rejuvenated skin.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. A topical numbing cream is typically applied before the treatment to reduce any sensation, making the process more comfortable.
The Rejuvapen microneedling treatment usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
Immediately after the treatment, your skin may appear red and feel slightly sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. Some patients experience mild swelling, but this usually subsides within 1 to 3 days. You may notice flaking or dryness as the skin begins to heal.
For optimal results, most patients benefit from a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Your provider will recommend the best treatment plan based on your individual skin concerns.
Downtime is minimal. You may experience redness and mild swelling for 24 to 48 hours, but many patients can return to their regular activities within a day or two. It’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect your skin during the healing process.
Yes, Rejuvapen microneedling is safe for all skin types and tones. However, it’s always best to consult with your provider to ensure it’s the right treatment for your specific skin concerns.
Absolutely! Rejuvapen microneedling can be combined with other treatments such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), chemical peels, or LED therapy to enhance results. Your provider can recommend a customized treatment plan for you.
While the results from Rejuvapen microneedling are long-lasting, they are not permanent. Maintenance treatments may be needed to preserve the improvements over time, especially as natural aging continues.
Microneedling with Rejuvapen is generally safe when performed by a trained professional. Side effects are typically mild and include redness, swelling, and minor irritation. Rarely, more serious side effects such as infection or prolonged redness can occur if aftercare instructions are not followed.
Post-treatment care is crucial for optimal results. You should avoid sun exposure, exercise, and harsh skincare products for at least 48 hours. Keep the skin hydrated and use any recommended serums or moisturizers. Sunscreen is essential to protect the skin as it heals.
Individuals with active skin infections, open wounds, severe acne, or those prone to keloid scarring should avoid microneedling. Pregnant or nursing women should also consult with their provider before undergoing treatment.
