At adore aesthetics & medspa, SkinPen microneedling is a foundational treatment for improving skin texture, tone, and overall skin health. This minimally invasive treatment works by stimulating your body’s natural collagen and elastin production, helping to restore a smoother, brighter, and more youthful appearance.

For enhanced results, treatments can be paired with advanced options such as PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or PDGF (platelet-derived growth factors) to support healing, improve skin quality, and elevate overall treatment outcomes.

how skinpen microneedling works

SkinPen microneedling uses ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process triggers the body’s natural healing response, increasing collagen and elastin production to improve skin texture, tone, and overall quality.

Unlike more aggressive treatments, SkinPen works without heat or chemicals, making it a gentle yet effective option for overall skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime.

SkinPen Microneedling

Performed using SkinPen by Crown Aesthetics, this treatment stimulates collagen production and improves overall skin texture and tone with minimal downtime.

SkinPen Microneedling + PRP

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is created using your own blood. A small sample is drawn and processed to isolate growth factors, which are then applied during treatment to enhance healing, boost collagen production, and improve overall skin rejuvenation.

SkinPen Microneedling + PDGF

PDGF (platelet-derived growth factors) from Ariessence is an advanced treatment that helps speed healing, improve skin quality, and enhance overall results.

Unlike PRP, PDGF does not require a blood draw and delivers highly concentrated growth factors directly to the skin. This treatment is a newer, trending option in aesthetics and is ideal for patients seeking more advanced skin rejuvenation and optimized outcomes.
