SkinPen microneedling is an innovative treatment for your skin offered at Nigro Dermatology Group. All SkinPen treatments work by making tiny, controlled injuries on the surface of your skin. Your body’s natural repair processes step in to heal the injuries, healing other blemishes and imperfections in the process as new collagen grows. SkinPen is a device that makes these injuries precise for an even, consistent result.
After your SkinPen treatment with your specialist at Nigro Dermatology Group, your skin repairs itself in three phases:
Your immune system causes increased blood flow to your skin to make it inflamed. It removes debris and disinfects the tiny wounds.
Your skin begins rebuilding itself with granulation cells. New blood vessels develop to nourish your skin in the area.

SkinPen treatments are relatively gentle, so many people who want better skin are candidates. You might be a candidate if:
You should be prepared to have some skin redness for a few days after your SkinPen treatment. If it bothers you, you can safely cover your skin with makeup until it disappears.
