SkinPen® Microneedling from Lamb Medical
SkinPen® Microneedling Available in Pittsburgh
How does it work?
The device creates thousands of precise micro-channels in the skin, triggering the body’s wound-healing response. This increases collagen and elastin production while allowing for deeper penetration of skincare products during treatment. SkinPen® Microneedling does not use heat and energy in the course of treatment.
What skin concerns does it treat?
- Acne scars
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone
- Rough or dull texture
- Mild skin laxity
- Stretch marks (off-label use)
Is it safe for all skin types?
Yes. SkinPen is clinically proven to be safe and effective for all skin tones and types, with minimal risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Is the treatment painful?
A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to ensure comfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a light vibration or scratching feeling.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal. You may experience redness, tightness, or mild swelling similar to a sunburn for 24–72 hours. Peeling and dryness can also occur as the skin heals.
When will I see results?
Many people notice an improvement in skin texture and tone within a week, with continued results developing over 3–6 months as collagen remodeling takes place.
How many treatments do I need?
For best results, a series of 3–6 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart is typically recommended, depending on your skin concerns and goals.
Is it safe?
Yes. SkinPen is FDA-cleared, single-use, and sterile, making it one of the safest microneedling options available when performed by a trained provider.
