Rebuild Smoother, Firmer-Looking Skin
SkinPen microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that creates thousands of precise microchannels in the skin, triggering its natural repair response and stimulating new collagen and elastin. At Melamed Weight & Wellness, we use SkinPen Precision Elite, the newest generation of SkinPen technology. This physician-led treatment can improve acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, rough texture, and other concerns while supporting gradual, natural-looking skin renewal without the use of heat or laser energy.

How Does SkinPen Microneedling Work?
SkinPen uses fine, sterile needles to create thousands of controlled microchannels in the skin. These microscopic injuries activate the body’s wound-healing response, stimulating fibroblasts involved in producing new collagen and elastin. As tissue remodeling progresses, newly formed collagen helps strengthen the skin’s supporting structure and improve its surface. Over the next weeks and months, this regenerative process can gradually soften acne scars, refine uneven texture, and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Pair With Exosomes for Faster, Stronger Results
Enhance your SkinPen treatment by pairing it with exosomes, regenerative signaling particles containing growth factors involved in cellular repair. When applied after microneedling, these exosomes can penetrate the newly formed microchannels and support the skin’s recovery. This combination helps calm post-treatment redness, support collagen production, and promote faster healing while enhancing improvements in texture, tone, and overall radiance.

SkinPen Microneedling FAQs
How Long Does a SkinPen Treatment Take?
The microneedling portion of your appointment typically takes about 30 minutes, although your total visit will be longer to allow time for preparation and topical numbing. Treatment time can also vary depending on the number and size of the areas you want to address.
What Is Recovery Like After SkinPen Microneedling?
Your skin may look pink or red and feel warm or tight afterward, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects typically improve over the next one to three days. You may also experience mild dryness or flaking as your skin renews. Most people can resume their normal routine quickly, although you should follow the personalized aftercare instructions provided by your care team.
When Will I See My SkinPen Results?
You may notice that your complexion looks refreshed within the first few weeks, but collagen remodeling takes time. Improvements in texture, fine lines, and scars can develop gradually over several weeks and continue as new collagen forms. Your results will depend on your starting skin condition, treatment goals, and the number of sessions you receive.
How Many SkinPen Treatments Will I Need?
Many people benefit from a series of three to six treatments spaced approximately four weeks apart. If you have deeper scars or more significant texture concerns, you may need additional sessions. Under Dr. Melamed’s supervision, your treatment plan will be tailored to your skin.
