Microneedling

The Collagen P.I.N. skin needling system allows for controlled induction of the skin’s self-repairing mechanism by creating micro “injuries” in the skin to trigger new collagen synthesis without posing the risk of permanent scarring. The result is smoother, firmer, and younger looking skin with improvement of pore size, acne scars, and/or wrinkles. Skin needling procedures are performed in a safe and precise manner with the use of sterile Collagen P.I.N. needle tips. The procedure typically takes 10-20 minutes depending on the areas being treated. In addition, you will arrive 30 minutes prior to your procedure for topical numbing.
