What Is
SkinPen
Microneedling?
Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), microneedling rejuvenates your skin quality by engaging your own immune system to regenerate and restore from within. Microneedling is performed with a hand-held device which has a series of ultra-fine needles on the surface. As the device is passed over the surface of your skin, the needles create a series of microscopic channels. Your body responds by producing fresh collagen and elastin, the building blocks of healthy, radiant skin. This enhanced collagen production continues for up to eight weeks following treatment.
Microneedling + PRF
PRF is liquid gold derived from your own blood.
It provides an extreme amount of useful growth factors to speed up healing and boost collagen production.

What To Expect
With SkinPen Microneedling
Microneedling in Clarkston has become very popular in addressing textural issues of the skin. The appearance of acne scars, fine lines, body scars, and stretch marks can all be improved with treatment.
We also use microneedling to introduce some of our peels and products to a deeper layer of the skin. Think of this like aerating your lawn before you lay down fertilizer. While preparation is not a necessity, it paves the way for a deeper treatment and faster healing process.
Things To Know Before Your Treatment
-
We recommend coming in for a complimentary consultation to discuss your customized treatment plan.
-
You’ll want to minimize sun exposure for the first week after treatment, so don’t have this treatment right before a trip to the beach or any extensive sun exposure!
-
If you are getting ready for a big event, such as a wedding, we recommend starting treatments 3 months prior to the event so the results are achieved at the perfect time for the big reveal.
-
If you have current acne, we typically recommend waiting for a microneedle treatment and instead will decongest the skin with facials, a home skincare regimen, and chemical peels.
The Procedure
Most patients tell us that they experience little discomfort undergoing microneedling at Vybrance MedAesthetics -- our highly trained specialists are experts at administering comfortable and effective treatments. To begin, we will apply a topical anesthetic, so your treatment is comfortable. We will then apply the device, equipped with a set of tiny needles to gently puncture the skin in the area being treated, stimulating your body’s natural healing response, triggering regeneration from within. Once we’ve completed treatment, we will apply skin-nourishing serums such as vitamin C and hyaluronic acid to help enhance your skin quality.
The Recovery
After your microneedling procedure, there is minimal downtime and you are free to resume your normal daily routine. You may appear a little pink or red, but this should subside after 24-48 hours.
It is imperative, however, that you stay out of the sun and avoid retinoids to protect your skin and ensure the best outcome. The results of microneedling are gradual and progressive, as the treatment relies on your body’s natural healing process.
For exceptional results in skin regeneration and collagen production, you may need to undergo a series of microneedling treatments. The results of this treatment are remarkable, as nothing looks fresher and more natural than collagen-rich skin!
