How often have you looked in the mirror and not recognized the face staring back at you? You’re not alone. Many (if not most) of your fellow women experience the same disappointment.
Fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, scarring — these are just some of the flaws determined to betray your age and make you look much older than you feel.
That is, until you invest in SkinPen® treatments.
Our team at Serenity Women’s Care in Scottsdale, Arizona, has seen it all come through our doors, and we’re proud to offer our patients a way back to healthier, younger looking skin with our comprehensive suite of aesthetic and skin rejuvenation treatments.
In this blog, we peel back the curtains and give you a sneak peek into SkinPen, one of our most popular treatments, so you can see how powerful it is before you ever step foot in our office.
Say hello to SkinPen
SkinPen is one of the industry’s leading microneedling devices. Microneedling, if you haven’t been introduced, is a treatment that improves the look and feel of skin by creating thousands of micro-injuries in your skin. Those itsy-bitsy injuries tell your body to start healing itself and produce more collagen and elastin (among other things).
You may consider it strange to purposely harm your skin, but the needles only puncture deep enough to stimulate collagen production.
What’s more, microneedling is safe for almost every skin type and age, the procedure is virtually painless, and there’s little to no downtime.
But SkinPen treatments don’t stop there. We love SkinPen because it can handle most common skin concerns. Here are just five cases where SkinPen works best.
1. Acne (and other) scars
Breakouts are bad enough on their own, but when you can’t move on from a blemish because it’s turned into a pitted scar, you find yourself stuck in a never-ending battle. The scar tissue left behind is thicker, less flexible, and unable to retain moisture, so you need microneedling to break it up and encourage your body to build new cells.
2. Fine lines and wrinkles
Time, sun damage, and even pollution undermine your skin’s structures and cause it to lose flexibility. The surface dries out and becomes thinner and more delicate, allowing fine lines and wrinkles to crisscross your face. Over time, those fine lines become more permanently etched in your skin and look much more pronounced.
Microneedling helps your body reboot collagen and elastin production, which rebuilds your skin from the inside out, creating a much younger looking you.
3. Uneven skin tone
Dealing with uneven skin tone can be both frustrating and uncomfortable. Turning to collagen-induction therapy, like microneedling, rejuvenates your skin from its innermost layers, turning it from rough and dull to soft and supple.
4. Hyperpigmentation and sun damage
The damaging effects of sun exposure often manifest as unsightly dark spots all over your body. When your body starts making collagen again, and the turnover of new skin cells speeds up, your embarrassing sun spots begin to fade away.
5. Sagging skin
In addition to fine lines and wrinkles, the loss of collagen and elastin can lead to sagging skin, particularly in your cheeks and neck, which can give you unattractive contours. Microneedling effectively replenishes your skin with essential skin-building proteins, providing the necessary support to uphold a firmer, lifted look.
