What Is SkinPen® Microneedling?
SkinPen® is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device clinically proven to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and texture irregularities.
The SkinPen® microneedling device uses ultra-fine, sterile needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries from SkinPen® microneedling stimulate the body’s natural healing response, triggering new collagen and elastin production—the building blocks of firm, smooth, youthful skin.
Because the SkinPen® microneedling treatment is minimally invasive and chemical-free, it’s safe for most skin types and tones, with minimal downtime and natural-looking results.
Enhance SkinPen® Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
For SkinPen® microneedling patients seeking advanced rejuvenation, PRP therapy can be added to a SkinPen® microneedling session. PRP involves drawing a small sample of your own blood, which is then spun in a centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma—a serum rich in growth factors and regenerative proteins.
When applied or injected back into the skin after SkinPen® microneedling, PRP accelerates cell repair and collagen synthesis, enhancing both the speed and quality of results.
This combination of SkinPen® microneedling and PRP—often called the “Vampire Facial®”—provides deeper hydration, faster healing, and more visible rejuvenation than microneedling alone.
Benefits of PRP + SkinPen® Microneedling:
- Boosted collagen and elastin production
- Reduced downtime and faster healing
- Enhanced glow and firmness
- Improved results for scars and texture irregularities

Frequently Asked Questions
What Skin Concerns Does SkinPen® Microneedling with PRP Treat?
SkinPen® microneedling and PRP can address a wide range of common skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Acne scars and texture irregularities
- Large pores and uneven tone
- Mild skin laxity
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Stretch marks on the body
Because it stimulates the skin’s own repair process, the SkinPen® microneedling and PRP treatment strengthens the skin over time and improves overall luminosity and smoothness.
How SkinPen® Microneedling & PRP Work Together
When used together, SkinPen® microneedling creates microchannels that allow PRP to penetrate deeply into the dermal layers. The growth factors in PRP then signal your body to accelerate healing and produce fresh collagen.
- SkinPen® Microneedling Phase: Controlled micro-injury activates natural regeneration.
- PRP Application: Concentrated platelets are applied or injected to enhance healing.
- Collagen Remodeling: Over the next several weeks, new collagen smooths and tightens the skin.
This dual approach with SkinPen® microneedling and PRP offers both short-term radiance and long-term structural improvement—revealing skin that looks younger, healthier, and more even in tone.
What to Expect During and After SkinPen® Microneedling and PRP Treatment
Before Your SkinPen® Microneedling and PRP Session
Your dermatologist will evaluate your skin and discuss your goals. A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort before the procedure.
During the SkinPen® Microneedling and PRP Procedure
Your SkinPen® microneedling device is gently moved across the treatment area to create microchannels. If you’re receiving PRP, a small blood sample is drawn and processed while the microneedling begins. The PRP is then applied or injected immediately afterward.
The SkinPen® microneedling and PRP procedure typically lasts 45–60 minutes, and most patients describe the sensation as light pressure or tingling.
After SkinPen® Microneedling and PRP Treatment
Mild redness and warmth may occur for 24–48 hours—similar to a light sunburn. Most patients resume normal activities the next day. Results begin to appear within 1–2 weeks, with continued improvement as new collagen develops over the next several months.
For best results, a series of 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is recommended, followed by maintenance sessions every 6–12 months.
