Many patients are looking for ways to improve the look, color and texture of their skin without the down time typically associated with surgical procedures. Virginia Surgical Arts offers microneedling treatments for improving your skin’s appearance. This minimally invasive, in-office skin rejuvenation treatment can improve fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks and many other conditions.
There are many microneedling systems out there, but VSA firmly believes SkinPen is the best. It is the only U.S. engineered and manufactured microneedling device on the market, with patent-pending single use cartridges. Both our office and our patients can have peace of mind with a safe, superior device they can trust.
SkinPen is a medical grade, state-of-the-art microneedling device designed to stimulate your skin’s natural ability to repair itself. It initiates a controlled skin healing response by creating a series of hundreds of vertical microscopic channels into the dermis. This automatically triggers new collagen growth free of scar tissue formation with very little downtime.
SkinPen microneedling helps to address issues, including:
To boost the results of microneedling, Virginia Surgical Arts offers the option to include platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to your treatment. Click here to learn more!
Microneedling is a very safe and well tolerated office procedure. Safely used on patients of all skin-types, microneedling can be performed all-year, even during the summer, a time when lasers are not recommended.
Though very little downtime is needed after a microneedling treatment, patients can expect mild redness and swelling which usually subsides within 24 hours. One should always be careful of sun exposure following a treatment. The redness, swelling and tenderness that may follow the procedure feels similar to a mild sunburn.
After just one day, patients may return to normal activities and are able to conceal most of the signs of treatment with makeup.
The skin’s appearance will begin to improve as the body’s healing process promotes the production of healthy new cells and extracellular substances (e.g., collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid).
Multiple sessions are recommended to achieve optimal microneedling results. 3-4 treatments are required for best results and up to 6 treatments for more severe scarring. For anti-aging, 1-2 treatments a year.
