SkinPen Microneedling

SkinPen is a minimally invasive microneedling treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin with precision and sophistication. Using FDA-cleared microneedling technology, the treatment creates micro channels in the skin that activate the body’s natural collagen and elastin production, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin. Ideal for those seeking to improve fine lines, acne scarring, uneven texture, and overall skin tone, this treatment offers a gentle approach to skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime. Depending on the concern being addressed, results can become noticeable after as few as three sessions. More involved skin issues may require additional treatments to achieve optimal, long-lasting transformation. Each session is performed in a serene, spa-like environment, blending clinical efficacy with a luxurious experience.

Concerns Treated


Uneven Skin Tone/Texture

Uneven pigmentation and skin texture issues are common and can occur for a number of reasons. Hyperpigmentation is the most common cause of uneven skin tone and texture, which is due to excess melanin production in the skin. Other causes range from hereditary skin conditions to lifestyle choices, acne and scarring, and hormonal changes. Dark spots, rough, bumpy, or reddish areas can be unflattering, distressing, and in some rare cases, dangerous. Finding the cause of your uneven skin tone or texture is the first step towards getting the treatment you need to resolve it.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Smooth as a baby’s bottom. Not saying we necessarily want to correlate that to our faces, but the idea is the same. Fine lines, fine wrinkles, and crepey skin can disrupt the surface of our skin — let’s fix that.

Acne Scars

Pimples and blemishes don’t always fade away to nothing, and, just as there are several kinds of acne, there are several types of acne scars that breakouts can leave behind.
