SkinPen Treatment – MicroNeedling

MicroNeedling and NanoNeedling with the SkinPen is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment to improve the skin’s texture. At Face Up Skincare, we perform around 500 Micro- and NanoNeedling treatments each year.

What a SkinPen treatment can do for you:

  • Smoother skin texture
  • More even skin tone with restored radiance
  • Fewer lines and less visible wrinkles
  • Reduction of scars
  • Improvement of blemished skin
  • Reduction of pigmentation spots and sun damage
  • Less visible broken capillaries

Do you have questions about the treatment or are you unsure whether a SkinPen treatment is right for your skin? You are always welcome to contact the clinic at mail@faceupskincare.dk or by phone at +45 20 83 58 34.

If you are a new client, we recommend booking the “Facial – New Client” appointment. This ensures you receive a treatment tailored to your skin type.

How does Nano- and MicroNeedling work?

MicroNeedling is ideal if you want to boost the collagen levels in your skin. Collagen is the primary structural protein in the skin’s connective tissue and is essential for skin elasticity and firmness.

The MicroNeedling process involves the cosmetologist using the SkinPen needling device to create thousands of microscopic vertical punctures in the skin, penetrating from 0.25 mm to 1.5 mm deep. The micro-injuries caused by MicroNeedling trigger the skin’s natural healing process by releasing growth factors that stimulate collagen production (Collagen Induction Therapy).

This skin renewal process continues for up to 10 weeks. After the treatment, the skin will usually appear slightly flushed and warm for a few hours.

NanoNeedling is ideal if you want to stimulate an effective skin renewal process with immediate results. In NanoNeedling, the skin is gently stamped with small silicone cones measuring 0.15 mm. The treatment is less invasive than MicroNeedling and has no downtime, leaving the skin fresh and glowing right after the procedure.

In both Nano- and MicroNeedling treatments, a medical-grade serum is applied. Through the microscopic channels created by the treatment, the active ingredients are absorbed into the deeper layers of the skin up to 400 times more effectively than with regular topical application.

Each treatment is tailored to your needs and your skin’s specific requirements. This includes adjusting the needle length, penetration speed, and products used before, during, and after the needling treatment. Together, we determine whether Micro- or NanoNeedling will benefit your skin the most, and whether 1, 3, or 6 sessions are needed to achieve your desired results.

After the Skinpen treatment

The micro channels created during Micro Needling are closed after a few minutes and do not cause any wounds or scars. The skin may be red, this typically subsides within a few hours. The skin may also feel a little dry in the following days.

We advise against sunbathing, exercise, sauna, swimming and makeup for the first 24 hours after treatment. It is essential that you follow your beautician’s recommendations for skin care at home for 72 hours after your microneedling treatment.
