MicroNeedling in Philadelphia, PA

Do you want a beautiful, healthy complexion? MicroNeedling (also called Skin Needling or Collagen Induction Therapy) renews and revitalizes your skin with minimal downtime. MicroNeedling is a minimally invasive procedure that treats a multitude of skin issues and is ideal for any skin type.

At The Lumen Center, our highly skilled and educated aesthetic technicians work under the guidance of Dr. Andrew Kwak. Every treatment is performed with extreme care for maximum results.

What Is MicroNeedling?

MicroNeedling is a type of skin resurfacing treatment that can treat sun damaged skin, fine lines, facial scars, uneven pigmentation and acne scars. Using a device with very fine needles, it creates tiny punctures in the top layer of skin. This triggers the body to create new collagen and elastin, which tightens the skin.

Benefits of MicroNeedling

MicroNeedling is versatile and can improve many different skin concerns. Benefits of this procedure include:

Improves fine lines and deep wrinkles
Reduces appearance of acne scars, large pores and other skin imperfections
Softens stretch marks
Creates a more even skin tone
Lightens hyperpigmentation and sunspots
Firms and smooths skin texture
Restores smoother, more youthful looking skin and gives you that “glow”

The MicroNeedling Treatment

Prior to the treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable during the procedure. At The Lumen Center, we use the COSMOPen, an FDA-approved, state-of-the-art MicroNeedling system. It produces similar results as a fractional laser, but without pain, downtime and thermal damage. The COSMOPen also has advantages over a DermaRoller, including:

"I had a wonderful experience getting facials and microneedling. Melissa targets my skin concerns and its looking better than ever! I highly recommend!"

The Recovery Process

Normal activities can be resumed immediately after treatment. However, you may experience mild swelling and redness after each treatment. It may feel like you have a mild sunburn, but symptoms will subside within 48 hours. A daily moisturizer will help heal the skin and reduce irritation, and sunscreen is highly recommended.
