Microneedling in Aiken, SC

Acne scars, fine lines, stretch marks — the FDA-cleared SkinPen awakens your skin's own collagen to smooth what other treatments can't touch.

Collagen, Reawakened

What is SkinPen microneedling?

If old acne scars or creeping wrinkles have you feeling less than confident in your skin, you're in good company — and you have options. The SkinPen is an FDA-cleared microneedling device whose microscopic needles create controlled micro-channels in the skin's surface, prompting your body to leap into repair mode.

That repair response kickstarts collagen production — the very protein we lose with age — regenerating smoother, firmer, more youthful skin over the weeks that follow. Each session takes about 30 minutes, most patients need two to five sessions, and results generally last five to six months.

  • Acne scars & facial scarring of all depths
  • Wrinkles, neck laxity & age spots on the hands

Why Patients Love It

Your skin does the work

01

Virtually Painless

Numbing cream is applied before every session — the needles are so fine that most patients feel next to nothing at all.

02

Natural Regeneration

No fillers, no foreign substances — just your own collagen rebuilding smoother, plumper skin from the inside out.

03

Beyond the Face

The SkinPen also treats stretch marks, aging hands, neck laxity, and can even help stimulate hair growth.

What To Expect

Your microneedling journey

01

Consult

We evaluate your skin and concerns — scars, lines, stretch marks — and map out how many sessions will get you there.

02

Numb

A topical numbing cream preps the area so the treatment itself is comfortable from start to finish.

03

Treat

The SkinPen glides across the skin for about 30 minutes, creating the micro-channels that trigger renewal.

04

Rebuild

Collagen production ramps up over the following weeks. Most patients complete 2–5 sessions for full results that last 5–6 months.

Good To Know

Microneedling FAQs

Your provider applies numbing cream before the procedure begins, and the SkinPen's needles are extremely small — the chance of feeling real pain is slim to none. Our team checks in on your comfort every step of the way.

There's virtually no downtime, though mild redness, itching, or swelling for a few days is normal. Full recovery takes no more than two weeks, so schedule sessions away from weddings, trips, and big events.

Some patients notice a difference after a single treatment, while most see real change after a few sessions as collagen rebuilds. Your skin keeps improving in the weeks following each visit.

About eight hours after treatment, cleanse gently and pat dry, follow with a gentle moisturizer, and apply sunscreen anytime you'll be in the sun. Your provider will send you home with complete aftercare instructions.
