Collagen Induction Therapy / Medical Microneedling in Lexington, MA
Rejuvenate, renew, and rediscover youthful skin with our expert microneedling services
Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling boosts the skin's natural collagen in order to improve skin quality, elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone, hyper-pigmentation & sun damage.
We utilize SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared device, known for its safety, convenience, and effectiveness.
The addition of PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or exosomes as a topical agent is recommended to enhance treatment results and collagen production. PRP is completely natural, derived from an individuals own platelets.
PRP can be thought of as a powerful, regenerative biochemical soup containing numerous growth factors. These growth factors play important roles in collagen synthesis, hair growth, microcirculation, tissue repair, and stem cell proliferation. PRP is obtained during a simple in-office blood draw. Your blood sample is processed in a centrifuge to separate red and white cells from the platelet-rich plasma. Common areas of treatment include the face and neck, acne scars, under the eyes, and scalp.
A series of treatments is recommended for optimal results.

Collagen Induction Therapy / Medical Microneedling FAQs
-
SkinPen Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that combines the benefits of microneedling with the healing and regenerative properties of PRP. The SkinPen device creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production, while PRP, derived from your own blood, is applied to enhance the healing process and boost skin rejuvenation.
-
The treatment begins with drawing a small amount of your blood, which is then processed to extract the PRP. The SkinPen device is used to create tiny micro-channels in the skin, triggering the body's natural healing response. PRP is then applied to the treated area, allowing the growth factors in the PRP to penetrate deeply and promote collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture and tone.
-
kinPen Microneedling with PRP can address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, large pores, uneven skin texture, and stretch marks. It is suitable for all skin types and provides a natural, youthful glow by enhancing the skin's overall health and appearance.

During the treatment, you may experience mild discomfort, but a topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize any pain. After the treatment, you may experience redness and mild swelling, similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few days. Most patients can resume normal activities within 24-48 hours, and visible improvements in skin texture and tone can be seen within a few weeks.
-
The number of treatments required varies depending on your skin condition and desired results. Generally, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Your skincare professional will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. Maintenance treatments every 6-12 months can help sustain the results.
