SKIN PEN
WHAT ARE SKIN PEN BENEFITS?
-
Micro-needling is a skin rejuvenation procedure that helps to improve your skin’s appearance by stimulating its natural ability to produce collagen and repair itself. The Bellus SkinPen ® micro-needling device offers five features that make this non-invasive but effective procedure the right choice for problem skin.

SKIN PEN IS...​
​
-
Natural. SkinPen is a micro-needling tool that uses sharp needles to create tiny holes in your skin. In response to these micro-injuries, your body produces collagen and elastin to heal the wound naturally. SkinPen ® doesn’t use chemicals, heat or toxins to burn or remove layers of your skin or paralyze your facial muscles.
​​
-
Safe and relatively comfortable. There are minimal side effects and downtime following a SkinPen ® procedure. Slight swelling and redness/pinkness in the area (like that from a mild sunburn) usually last only two to four days, so you can return to work or social activities quickly. SkinPen ® has minimal risk of scarring or infections. Your SkinPen ® provider will usually apply a topical anesthetic before the procedure, making you comfortable.
​​
-
Versatile. SkinPen ® can be used to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks and acne scars. SkinPen ® can be used on many different body parts, including face, neck, décolletage, arms, hands, legs, abdomen and back. SkinPen ® needles adjust to different lengths, allowing your SkinPen ® provider to customize your procedure based on skin’s thickness and your specific needs.
​​
-
Effective for all skin types. Because SkinPen ® doesn’t affect the epidermis (where the skin pigment resides), it can be used on all skin types.
