What is SkinPen Microneedling?
Bellus Medical developed SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device. Microneedling involves tiny needles that delicately puncture the skin to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. The micro-needle size ensures that the punctures are controlled and do not damage skin cells, but instead spurs the skin to create more collagen to repair and rebuild the skin. This process heals the micro wounds while increasing epidermal thickness, stimulating the extracellular matrix, and reducing inflammation—resulting in smoother lines and wrinkles, reduced acne scarring, and everything in between!
