SkinStylus™ Microneedling

SkinStylus™ Microneedling

Have you noticed how your skin changes over time? Factors like acne, sun exposure, lifestyle habits and the natural aging process can leave their mark, manifesting as wrinkles, fine lines, scars and a lackluster complexion. If you’re seeking a solution that revitalizes your skin from within, SkinStylus microneedling might just be the breakthrough treatment you’ve been searching for.

What Is SkinStylus Microneedling?

SkinStylus is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure designed to enhance the texture and appearance of the skin on your face or abdomen. This FDA-cleared treatment employs a specialized device equipped with fine needles to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These tiny punctures trigger the body’s natural healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The result? A smoother, firmer and more radiant complexion. 

At Wink Medical Aesthetics, we offer various SkinStylus options to cater to your unique skin needs, ensuring a personalized treatment experience.

What Does SkinStylus Microneedling Treat?

SkinStylus microneedling is versatile, addressing a wide range of skin concerns with precision and efficacy. Here are some of the issues it can treat to improve your skin texture:

• Acne scars and other types of scarring
• Enlarged pores
• Stretch marks
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Skin laxity

Who Are Ideal Candidates for Microneedling?

Ideal candidates for SkinStylus microneedling are those looking to rejuvenate their skin without resorting to more invasive procedures. If you have concerns about your skin texture and have a very fair to olive or light brown skin tone (Fitzpatrick type I, II or III), this treatment could be an excellent choice.

Preparing for SkinStylus

Preparation is key to maximizing your treatment benefits. We recommend:

• Avoiding sun exposure and not using any self-tanning products for at least 24 hours before your session
• Keeping your skin clean and free of makeup on the day of your treatment
• Discussing your skincare routine with our specialists, as some products may need to be paused before and after your session

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Procedure

Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. The procedure starts with cleansing your skin and applying a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort. Then, using the SkinStylus device, we’ll gently treat the targeted areas. Depending on the treatment area, the session typically lasts about 30 to 60 minutes.

What to Expect After SkinStylus: Downtime and Recovery

The beauty of SkinStylus microneedling is its minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their regular skincare and makeup routine within 24 to 48 hours after treatment. However, listen to your skin and, if needed, reach out for the advice of our experts — if your skin feels sensitive or irritated, give it extra time to heal before resuming your full routine.

Recovery after SkinStylus microneedling is relatively swift. Here’s what you can expect:

• Immediately After Treatment: 

• • • You may notice some skin irritation and redness, similar to a mild sunburn. This is a normal reaction to the microneedling process, as it indicates the initiation of your skin’s healing process.

• 24 to 48 Hours Post-Treatment:

• • Mild redness and swelling may continue but should start to subside during this period.
  • You can typically resume most normal activities within this timeframe. However, we advise avoiding heavy exercise and activities that may cause excessive sweating to prevent irritation.
  • Keep your skin hydrated and protected during this initial period and beyond. Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products and sunscreen as recommended by our specialists.

After microneedling, your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight. Protect your skin from direct sun exposure and consistently use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Apply this first thing in the morning, even if you’ll be indoors, and reapply as necessary throughout the day, especially if you’re spending time outdoors. Continued sun protection can help maintain your results.

What Results Can I Expect From SkinStylus Microneedling?

Patience is key, as the results from SkinStylus microneedling gradually unfold as your skin heals and rejuvenates itself. You can expect to see initial improvements within a few weeks, with more significant results appearing after a few months as collagen production continues. 

Results can last up to six months or longer, with maintenance treatments recommended to sustain your radiant complexion.

How Much Does SkinStylus Cost?

The cost of SkinStylus microneedling at Wink Medical Aesthetics varies depending on the treatment area and the number of sessions required to achieve your desired results. We believe in transparency and will provide a detailed breakdown of costs during your consultation, tailored to your specific treatment plan.
