Ice pick scarring, boxcar scarring, fine lines and wrinkles all have one thing in common, disruption of collagen in some way, shape or form. Microneedling stimulates collagen helping your skin to repair itself and make the scarring less visible. 

SkinPen is a microneedling device. It works by rapidly puncturing the skin using 16 tiny needles. This creates an invisible controlled wound, tricking your body into producing collagen.

Benefits: 

Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Stimulates collagen production, helping to diminish fine lines and wrinkles.

Shrinks Pores: Helps to reduce the size of enlarged pores, giving skin a smoother appearance.

Reduces Hyperpigmentation: Helps lighten dark spots and hyperpigmentation for a more even complexion.

Treats Stretch Marks: Can improve the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating collagen and elastin production.

Enhances Product Absorption: Increases the absorption and effectiveness of topical skincare products by creating microchannels in the skin.

Minimal Downtime: Offers a quick recovery time compared to more invasive procedures, making it convenient for regular use.

How to prepared for your Microneedling Appointment:

2-4 weeks before your appointment: For those of deeper skin tones, Morgan suggest using a brightening cream/serum to lessen the chances of hyperpigmentation. It is incredibly rare but a possibility so Morgan likes to lessen that risk by prepping the skin for 2-4 weeks.

Morgan's recommended skin prep are the Tone Corrector and Brightening Peel Pads.

3 days before your facial: You want to make sure you cease using scrubs and exfoliating serums like mandelic or glycolic acid. Also pause using actives like Vitamin C, benzoyl peroxide, and kojic acid.

Drink plenty of water for the days leading up to your appointment. Hydrated skin responds better to almost every treatment.
