Top 5 Benefits of Microneedling
If you’ve been hearing the buzz about microneedling and wondering what all the fuss is about, we’re here to break it down for you. Tierney Newman, FNP-C, and the team at The Artistry NP are excited to now offer SkinPen® microneedling, a treatment that’s gentle, effective, and perfect for giving your skin a natural refresh. Whether you’re dealing with acne scars, early signs of aging, or just looking for that healthy glow, here are five reasons to love SkinPen.
1. It Boosts Your Natural Collagen
Let’s start with the big one—collagen. SkinPen works by creating tiny micro-channels in your skin, which jumpstarts your body’s healing response. That means more collagen and elastin, the building blocks of firm, youthful-looking skin.
2. It Fades Acne Scars (Really!)
SkinPen is actually FDA-cleared to treat facial acne scars in adults, and we’ve seen amazing results. By breaking up old scar tissue and encouraging fresh skin to grow, this treatment helps smooth out pitted areas and even out skin texture over time.
3. It Softens Fine Lines and Wrinkles
If you’re noticing little lines creeping in around your eyes or mouth, microneedling can help. While it’s not a replacement for Botox or filler, it’s a fantastic option for softening fine lines in a natural way—no frozen faces here.
4. Your Skin Will Look Smoother and Brighter
One of the best things about SkinPen? That post-treatment glow. It helps shrink the appearance of pores, fade discoloration, and give your skin a smoother, more even tone. You’ll love the way your skin looks (and feels) in the weeks after treatment.
5. Minimal Downtime, Maximum Results
Unlike more invasive treatments, SkinPen doesn’t require major recovery time. You might be a little pink for a day or two, but most people are back to their usual routine within 24–48 hours. It’s a great option for busy schedules and on-the-go lifestyles.
