SkinPen® (Microneedling) in Anaheim Hills, CA

If you're looking for a non-surgical way to refresh your skin and address common concerns like fine lines or acne scars, SkinPen microneedling may be the perfect solution. Microneedling with SkinPen is an advanced, minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that stimulates the body's natural healing process to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. Using a device equipped with fine needles, SkinPen creates thousands of controlled micro-injuries to the skin, triggering collagen and elastin production. At Motakef Plastic Surgery + Med Spa in Anaheim Hills, CA, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Saba Motakef skillfully administers SkinPen microneedling to help patients reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, and other skin imperfections. Dr. Motakef customizes each treatment to address individual skin concerns, delivering noticeable rejuvenation with minimal downtime in a safe, professional setting.

Microneedling with SkinPen works by creating thousands of tiny, controlled micro-injuries in your skin using a handheld device with fine, sterile needles. These micro-injuries stimulate your body's natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production to improve the texture, tone, and overall appearance of your skin. When you come to Motakef Plastic Surgery + Med Spa for your treatment, you'll be welcomed into a comfortable, private setting. A topical numbing cream will be applied to ensure your comfort, and once your skin is cleansed, the SkinPen device will be gently passed over the treatment area. After your session, a soothing serum will be applied to enhance your results, followed by a moisturizer and sunscreen to protect your skin. You may notice some redness or sensitivity similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually fades within a day or two as your skin begins to heal and rejuvenate.

Does microneedling with SkinPen hurt?

Most patients experience little to no discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to ensure a comfortable experience. Some patients may feel a slight tingling or scratching sensation during the procedure, but it is generally very well tolerated.

How many treatments will I need?

Most patients see optimal results after a series of three treatments spaced about four weeks apart, but this can vary based on individual skin concerns and goals. During your consultation, your provider will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Is there any downtime after SkinPen microneedling?

Downtime is minimal, and most patients return to normal activities within 24 to 72 hours. During this time, you may experience some redness, swelling, or mild sensitivity similar to a sunburn. Proper aftercare, including hydration and sun protection, helps support the healing process.
