THERE ARE 3 PHASES OF WOUND REPAIR
Microneedling with the SkinPen™ in Orlando works by inducing wound repair within your skin. There are 3 phases of wound repair that you will go through. Here is what to expect at each stage.
1. The first phase has inflammation. The piercing of the skin that occurs during a SkinPen™ treatment with us will trigger your immune system. Your immune system will try to disinfect the wounds to remove any debris from the pin-pricks so that infection does not occur.
This will increase blood flow to the area to begin creating new tissue. This is why you will see redness, minor swelling, and puffiness around the treated areas.
2. The second phase is proliferation. This is when the wounds are rebuilt with new cells. As new cells form to fill in the wound and repair the area, a new network of blood vessels will also form. This is why our patients have increased blood flow to these areas after treatment.
3. The third phase is the remodeling of the skin. This is when the wound is replaced with new skin tissue and fully working blood vessels.
In giving you time to heal between treatments, we ensure that the overall structure of your skin stays intact and allows your skin to proliferate new cells and blood vessels.
