EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
SKINPEN MICRONEEDLING

  • SkinPen Precision is a medical-grade microneedling device that creates thousands of controlled microchannels in the skin, encouraging your body’s natural wound-healing processes. These micro-injuries stimulate collagen and elastin production, which are essential for maintaining youthful, healthy skin.

    Unlike laser treatments or chemical peels, this approach works mechanically using a micro needling pen, making it suitable for all skin types and tones year-round. It’s an ideal solution for those seeking to improve skin quality and support skin cell regeneration without aggressive downtime or invasive procedures.

  • Microneedling with SkinPen offers a wide range of benefits for patients looking to improve skin texture, tone, and overall skin health, all with minimal downtime. This clinically proven treatment works by using tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries, stimulating collagen and elastin production and activating the body’s natural healing response.

    Key microneedling benefits include:

    • Visible improvement in skin texture: Ideal for rough or bumpy skin and enlarged pores.

    • Reduction in acne scars and surgical scarring: SkinPen microneedling is an effective way to treat acne scars without the need for laser or chemical treatments.

    • Smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles: Regular microneedling sessions help soften static lines and support firmer skin.

    • Evening out skin tone and pigmentation: A brighter, more uniform complexion is often seen after a full SkinPen microneedling course.

    • Minimally invasive with low risk: This treatment avoids heat and chemicals, making it safe for all skin types and tones, year-round.

    • Minimal downtime: Most patients experience only mild redness or tightness post treatment.

    • Supports skin cell renewal: As new collagen forms, skin appears more youthful, resilient, and refined.

  • SkinPen microneedling is highly versatile and effective for:

    • Microneedling for acne scars and surgical scarring

    • Fine lines and wrinkles

    • Uneven skin tone and pigmentation

    • Stretch marks and sun damage

    • Enlarged pores and congestion

    • Rough or bumpy skin texture

    Whether you're seeking full-face microneedling or targeting a specific concern, SkinPen offers tailored microneedling treatment plans to meet your needs.

  • Your appointment begins with a thorough consultation to assess your skin conditions and discuss your treatment goals. On the day of treatment, the process includes:

    • Cleansing and numbing the skin with topical anaesthetic

    • Applying a glide gel to ensure comfort

    • Passing the SkinPen microneedling device across the skin to create microscopic channels

    The microneedling session takes around 30 minutes (plus numbing time) and is well-tolerated with minimal discomfort. Whether used across the full face or in specific areas, it encourages collagen and elastin production and promotes skin remodelling.

  • SkinPen microneedling is minimally invasive with a low risk of complications. Most patients experience:

    • Mild redness and tightness for up to 24 hours

    • Slight swelling, tenderness, or dryness for a few days

    • Rare side effects such as flaking or increased sensitivity

    To aid the healing process and enhance microneedling benefits, we advise:

    • No makeup or active skincare for 24 hours

    • Avoiding intense heat, steam, and exercise for 48 hours

    • Gentle, hydrating skincare and daily SPF protection

    Dedicated post microneedling care reduces the risk of irritation and improves long-term results.

  • SkinPen results appear gradually as collagen and elastin production increases. Most patients notice improvement in skin texture, tone, and firmness within a few weeks. For deeper concerns such as acne scars or stretch marks, a course of three to six sessions may be recommended.

    Full results continue to develop for up to 300 days after each skinpen microneedling treatment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Microneedling works by creating precise microchannels in the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing response. This triggers the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins that keep the skin firm, smooth, and youthful.

    As a result, microneedling helps to refine pores, reduce acne scarring, smooth fine lines, and improve skin tone and texture. It’s a highly effective treatment for rejuvenating tired, uneven, or scarred skin with minimal downtime.

  • Yes - SkinPen microneedling is one of the most clinically proven treatments for overall skin rejuvenation and scar reduction. It offers visible and long-term improvements in texture, firmness, and radiance without surgery or harsh chemicals.

    Because it stimulates your skin’s natural repair process, results continue to improve over time, making it an excellent investment in long-term skin health.

  • It’s best to avoid makeup for at least 24 hours after treatment to allow the skin to heal and to prevent irritation or infection. After this period, you can use clean, mineral-based makeup if needed. We also recommend avoiding active skincare ingredients, such as retinols or exfoliating acids, for several days post-treatment to protect your results.

  • Most patients benefit from a course of 3–6 microneedling sessions, spaced around 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the severity of scarring and your skin’s response. During your consultation at MUSE™, your practitioner will create a tailored treatment plan to deliver the best possible improvement for your skin type and concerns.

  • Yes - microneedling can effectively stimulate the scalp to encourage new hair growth. When performed using SkinPen, the treatment creates controlled micro-injuries that increase blood flow and enhance absorption of topical serums designed to strengthen and nourish hair follicles. It’s often recommended as part of a broader hair restoration plan.
