When it comes to maintaining the health and beauty of your skin, microneedling offers an easy way to keep your skin looking fresh and smooth. As we go about our daily lives, it’s easy to forget how much of a toll the progression of time and the outside environment has on the look and feel of our skin. Eventually, you’ll look into the mirror and find that your skin may be covered with the early signs of aging such as wrinkles, pigmentation, and even scarring. These changes to your skin can give you a much older and unattractive appearance. Fortunately, the skilled team at IconMD Medical Spa + Laser Center can help you fight back these changes and reclaim your beautiful look with the SkinPen microneedling treatment in Florida (Boca Raton, Davie and N. Miami) or Massachusetts (Boston and Waltham).

post-treatment is what counts the most.
What is SkinPen Microneedling?
Microneedling is one of the latest cosmetic treatments and can be used to treat common skin conditions and rejuvenate the tone and texture of the skin. During the procedure, thousands of microscopic punctures are done to the skin to help stimulate its natural healing capabilities and improve the production of collagen without causing scar tissue to form.
The SkinPen is an FDA-approved device that’s used to perform microneedling. It can help address a number of skin-related issues including:
- Pigmentation
- Stretch marks
- Acne scars
- Wrinkles and fine lines
How Does Microneedling Work?
As we get older, our natural production of collagen begins to degrade and as a result, the look and feel of our skin will begin to degrade as well. By stimulating the body’s natural healing process, microneedling works to increase the production of collagen. This is an essential building block that helps to keep the skin healthy, youthful, and smooth.
The treatment will provide some immediate benefits, but it is important to remember that the full effects of microneedling begin to take hold a few weeks after the initial treatment. As your body begins to increase its production of collagen, the skin will experience a substantial improvement in its appearance.
The Benefits of Microneedling
Microneedling is a safe and effective cosmetic treatment that can help improve the look and feel of the skin without having to use synthetic fillers or extensive surgical techniques. Patients undergoing the procedure won’t have to worry about allergic reactions or downtime for recovery. It is a useful solution for most skin types and it can help provide a natural enhancement to the look and feel of the skin.

Good Candidates for Microneedling
Microneedling using the SkinPen is a great cosmetic solution for those who are struggling to deal with the early signs of aging but have no desire to undergo invasive surgical procedures. Ideal candidates are those who are in good physical health and have realistic expectations. You might be advised to avoid undergoing the procedure if you have an active skin infection or keloid scarring. Our team will perform an initial assessment of your skin and discuss your medical history to help determine if microneedling is the right course of action for you. Our team may also recommend other treatments that can complement the results of your microneedling in Florida (Boca Raton, Davie and N. Miami) or Massachusetts (Boston and Waltham).
What Happens During a Microneedling Session?
Your microneedling appointment will take place in the serenity of our medical spa in either Florida (Boca Raton, Davie and N. Miami) or Massachusetts (Boston and Waltham). First, one of our cosmetic experts will apply a topical numbing solution to each treatment area to ensure your comfort.
Next, the SkinPen device is slowly moved across your skin, allowing the needles to puncture through the epidermis (top layer of skin) and into the dermis (layers underneath) in order to accelerate the body’s production of collagen. Once all blemishes are treated, the micropunctures are cleansed as needed.
WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER YOUR MICRONEEDLING
Your skin may have a bright red or pinkish color following your microneedling treatment. The length of the recovery will vary between patients, on average most patients will need around two to three days to recover. The results of your microneedling will take some time to show and will continue to improve over the next six months or so.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is SkinPen Your Only Skin Rejuvenation Treatment?
Absolutely not. At IconMD, we also utilize the Morpheus8 device, which combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy for even stronger results if necessary. Besides microneedling, we can use the Moxi laser resurfacing device as well as chemical peels.
How Long Will My Microneedling Session Take?
In general, microneedling sessions take less than an hour. However, the exact amount of time depends on how many areas of the skin are being treated and their sizes.
Can I Get Microneedling During an Active Acne Breakout?
Microneedling is not recommended during active acne, as it could spread the bacteria. If you have already scheduled a microneedling session and notice a breakout starting, please let us know so we can reschedule your appointment.
