SkinPen® · How it works

Precision Microneedling

A 14–needle cartridge oscillates vertically, creating thousands of microscopic channels through the epidermis into the dermis. This controlled micro–injury triggers the body's wound–healing cascade — a release of growth factors, the activation of fibroblasts, and a surge of fresh collagen and elastin.
