SkinPen Capilar

What is SkinPen?

SkinPen is an advanced microneedling device designed to rejuvenate the skin and safely stimulate hair growth.

It uses fine micro-needles that create controlled micro-perforations in the skin or scalp, activating cellular regeneration and promoting the production of collagen, elastin, and growth factors. On the face, it improves skin texture, tone, and firmness, helping reduce acne scars, fine lines, and enlarged pores. On the scalp, it stimulates inactive hair follicles, enhancing hair density and strength.

This minimally invasive treatment is suitable for all skin types, offering short recovery time and visible results after the first sessions. FDA-approved, SkinPen ensures safety, efficacy, and natural-looking results, making it an ideal option for both facial rejuvenation and hair restoration.

Benefits of SkinPen

The benefits of microneedling with a device such as SkinPen are broad and effective for both skin and scalp:

Collagen and elastin stimulation: Promotes natural collagen production, improving skin firmness, elasticity, and texture.

Facial rejuvenation: Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores, resulting in smoother, younger-looking skin.

Scar reduction: Effectively minimizes acne, surgical, and trauma scars.

Improves tone and texture: Evens out skin tone, reduces pigmentation, and enhances luminosity.

Hair growth stimulation: On the scalp, reactivates dormant hair follicles to promote stronger, denser hair growth.

Safe for all skin types: Suitable for various skin tones and conditions, with personalized treatment settings.

Fast recovery: A minimally invasive procedure with minimal downtime, allowing a quick return to daily activities.

Natural results: Delivers gradual, visible improvements after the first sessions, with long-lasting, natural outcomes.

Versatile application: Can treat areas such as the face, neck, scalp, and hands.

How is the SkinPen procedure performed?

The microneedling procedure with SkinPen begins with a deep cleansing of the skin or scalp in the target area. The specialist then performs controlled passes to create micro-perforations that stimulate collagen and elastin production while enhancing the absorption of active ingredients.

On the face, it improves wrinkles, scars, and skin texture; on the scalp, it reactivates hair follicles to stimulate hair growth.

Each session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the area treated. The procedure is minimally invasive and requires little to no downtime, making it ideal for those seeking effective, natural-looking aesthetic improvements.

In specific cases, topical anesthesia may be used to ensure patient comfort.

Recovery after a SkinPen procedure is quick and straightforward. Immediately after treatment, it is common to experience mild redness and a sensation similar to a sunburn, which usually subsides within 24 to 48 hours.

In the following days, mild flaking may occur as the skin regenerates. It is recommended to avoid direct sun exposure, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen, and keep the skin well-hydrated.

For scalp treatments, patients should avoid irritating products or excessive heat. Most people can resume their daily activities almost immediately, with results that develop progressively in the following weeks, revealing rejuvenated skin or stronger hair.

The SkinPen procedure involves minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to most of their daily activities almost immediately. However, mild redness and a warm sensation in the treated area are common during the first 24 to 48 hours, which might temporarily limit social activities or public exposure if the patient prefers.

It is also recommended to avoid sun exposure, makeup, irritating products, and intense physical activity for the first few days. In the case of scalp treatments, the treated area should not be washed for 24 hours. These temporary restrictions are mild and short-lived, making the procedure highly convenient.

Post-treatment recommendations for SkinPen are essential to ensure proper recovery and maximize results:

Avoid sun exposure: Protect the skin from direct sunlight for at least one week and apply a high-SPF broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Hydration: Keep the skin well-hydrated using creams recommended by the specialist to promote cellular regeneration.

Avoid irritating products: Refrain from using makeup and products containing retinoids, exfoliating acids, or other harsh ingredients for at least 48 hours.

Do not touch or scratch: Avoid touching, rubbing, or scratching the treated skin to prevent infection and promote healing.

Avoid excessive heat: Do not use saunas, hot baths, or expose the skin to intense heat during the first few days.

Avoid vigorous exercise: Refrain from intense physical activities and excessive sweating for 24 to 48 hours to minimize irritation.

For scalp treatments: Avoid washing the treated area for at least 24 hours and do not apply hair products that could irritate the skin.

Follow the specialist’s instructions: Adhere to all specific recommendations provided and attend follow-up appointments if necessary.

Monitor progress: Watch for any unusual reactions and contact your specialist if you experience unexpected or concerning side effects.
