SkinPen Microneedling

About SkinPen®

The SkinPen® for men is a microneedling treatment that reduces fine lines and wrinkles, eliminates scars or sun damage, and rejuvenates the skin. The treatment – also called Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) – stimulates collagen and elastin production to kick-start the skin’s healing processes.

Only one in three men between 18 and 34 have a regular skincare routine. In general, men have thicker, oilier skin due to the high levels of testosterone in their system, which makes the signs of aging less obvious to the naked eye. But that doesn’t mean that men don’t need skincare treatments every once in and while to sustain healthy, clear skin.

SkinPen® for men at Stadia Med Spa in San Antonio, TX, is a targeted skincare therapy with a variety of benefits. Ready to improve your confidence for a lifetime? Keep reading to learn more about SkinPen® for men, including procedure details, FAQs, and more!

What is SkinPen®?

SkinPen® for men is a microneedling therapy for skin. It uses an FDA-approved device called a dermal roller to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.

CIT – collagen induction therapy – is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that triggers the body’s natural healing capabilities. It creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin tissue with twelve tiny needles found in the tip of the “pen.” The damaged tissue triggers collagen and elastin production.

Collagen and elastin are skin proteins that are necessary for full, healthy, and blemish-free skin. When you stimulate collagen production, you can reduce scarring, smooth out wrinkles, and reverse the signs of aging.

Your Stadia Med Spa provider will glide the SkinPen® over damaged, drooping, or wrinkled skin. The needles start a natural immune response in the cells. The treated area will begin to disinfect, remove debris, increase circulation, and create new tissues.

Men who receive a SkinPen® treatment will see improvements in skin texture and tone. The procedure is risk-free with minimal recovery and is gentle enough to treat the skin on all areas of the body. Common treatment areas include the face, neck, arms, back, shoulders, and hands.

The Benefits of SkinPen®

The SkinPen® is a minimally-invasive collagen induction therapy that taps into your body’s ability to heal. It has few side effects or risks and is suitable for men with any skin color or type.

SkinPen® therapy at Stadia Med Spa can treat:

  • Scars from acne or trauma
  • Wrinkles, including crow’s feet and smile lines
  • Tighten sagging skin that creates jowls or a turkey neck
  • Improve skin tone and texture

Men with significant acne scarring may benefit from SkinPen® treatments. The micro-injuries caused by microneedling break up scar tissue to create smoother, younger-looking skin.

The SkinPen® can also treat other types of scars, blemishes from sun damage, and wrinkles. New collagen restarts the healing process and naturally lessens the appearance of skin damage. Skin appears fuller and younger, with a more even texture.

Men of all ages can benefit from SkinPen® microneedling. At Stadia Med Spa, SkinPen® is a standalone treatment that can also be used in conjunction with topical solutions.

Before, During & After

What to Expect

The first step is your free consultation.

Start your SkinPen® journey at Stadia Med Spa with a free consultation. SkinPen® for men is designed to treat scars, dark spots, and wrinkles. Your Stadia Med Spa provider will examine the potential treatment area to see if your goals are treatable with SkinPen®.

Depending on the severity and size of the treatment area, your provider may suggest additional or alternative treatments to help you reach your cosmetic goals.

Before Treatment

Before a SkinPen® treatment, wash your face thoroughly. Don’t apply any lotions or sunscreen before your appointment. Avoid direct sun exposure for one to two weeks.

If you have an active infection or acne flare-up, you will need to reschedule your appointment when the injection has cleared.

Drink plenty of water in the 48 hours leading up to your treatment and be sure to tell your provider about any medications, prescriptions, and herbal supplements. Certain medications can interfere with your results. Speak to a primary care doctor before stopping any prescriptions.

During Treatment

SkinPen® for men is a fast and easy procedure. Treatments usually last between 30 and 90 minutes. The exact length of your procedure will depend on the size of your treatment area.

Microneedling – especially for scars and other blemishes that penetrate deep into the skin – can cause minor pain and discomfort. A topical anesthetic is applied before SkinPen® to make the procedure as comfortable and pain-free as possible.

During the procedure, you will feel a slight vibration from the SkinPen®. Most clients do not feel any pain, but your Stadia Med Spa provider will check in with you regularly to ensure that you are comfortable and tolerating the treatment well.

You may need more than one appointment to meet your skincare goals. During your consultation, your Stadia Med Spa provider will give you an idea of how many treatments will be necessary for you. Most patients receive between two and six SkinPen® treatments about four weeks apart.

After Treatment

Recovery from SkinPen® procedures is relatively quick and painless. You should be able to leave your appointment and go right back to living your life. Common side effects include redness, swelling, and sensitivity – most of which will resolve within 48 hours.

Keep skin clear of any lotion or sunscreen for at least 6 hours. SkinPen® opens microchannels in the skin that remain open for 24 hours after your treatment. Keep the area clean and clear of skincare products that may further irritate the skin.

The Skinfuse post-microneedling protocol ensures you get the best results from your SkinPen® treatment. Skidfuse includes a variety of essential nutrients that will support healing after microneedling and leave your skin hydrated and clear without irritation.
