SkinPen® Microneedling
When it comes to reducing wrinkles, large pores, and scarring while stimulating collagen production and making the skin feel softer, nothing quite accomplishes the job like St. Louis Skin Solutions’ microneedling treatments. We believe in providing the best treatments with the best technology. This is why the experts chose the FDA cleared SkinPen® microneedling device. When performed by the skin care specialists, this skin rejuvenation procedure offers unparalleled collagen induction by harnessing the body’s innate ability to regrow and repair the skin as a response to micro-damage. This small, handheld device delivers up to 1,600 micro-punctures per second into the skin, thus stimulating the production of collagen and elastin while normalizing various skin functions.
There are three phases to the wound-repair process:
Phase I: Inflammation. Piercing the skin triggers your immune system to disinfect the wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow and begin to create new tissue.
Phase II: Proliferation. The wound is rebuilt with new granulation cells, which are part of the extracellular matrix. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops.
· Phase III: Remodeling. The wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels.
