THE FIRST FDA-CLEARED MICRONEEDLING DEVICE

What Is (Skinpen®) Microneedling?

SkinPen is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device and only FDA-cleared microneedling protocol, engineered and manufactured in the USA, proven safe for all skin types across Fitzpatrick types 1 through 6. Over 10,000 providers across the U.S. trust SkinPen, backed by more than 90 validation studies ensuring quality, safety, and performance. SkinPen is a global multi-award-winning system by Crown Aesthetics that uses collagen induction therapy, a process that works entirely through your skin's own biology, without heat, chemicals, or injectables.
SkinPen's microneedles pierce the skin, increasing blood flow. Immune cells work to clean and disinfect the area, setting the stage for repair, helping prepare the skin to rebuild with fresh, healthy cells. The result is structurally stronger, smoother, and more even skin that improves progressively as new collagen and elastin are produced

How Is SkinPen Microneedling Performed at NUR Med Spa?

Experiencing SkinPen microneedling treatment is a straightforward, comfortable, and fully guided process, from skin assessment and topical numbing through to precision micro-channeling and post-treatment care. Our board-certified provider Dr. Saima Rafiq walks you through every step of...

1. Skin Cleansing & Prep

Your skin is gently cleansed to remove all traces of makeup, oil, and impurities, creating a clean, sterile surface ready for treatment. This step ensures no barrier exists between the SkinPen device and your skin for maximum precision and safety.

2. Topical Numbing

A medical-grade numbing cream is applied and left to absorb for 20 to 30 minutes before any device contact begins. This ensures the full treatment zone is comfortable throughout, most patients report only a mild prickling sensation during the procedure itself.

3. SkinPen Microneedling

Our provider delivers controlled micro-channeling passes across the treatment zone using the FDA-cleared SkinPen device. Needle depth and pass intensity are adjusted in real time to match your skin thickness, concern area, and tolerance, ensuring precise, consistent collagen stimulation at every point.

4. Exosome Serum Application

A concentrated exosome serum is applied immediately after microneedling, absorbing deeply through the open micro-channels into the dermis. This delivers regenerative growth factors directly where collagen production is most active significantly amplifying the skin renewal response triggered by SkinPen.

Common Questions About <span style='color: #4D6052'>SkinPen Microneedling</span> in Orlando
The first 24 to 72 hours after your SkinPen session at NUR Med Spa are the most important for your skin's recovery and results. Keep the skin clean, hydrated, and protected, applying only gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF 30+ during the day. Avoid heavy workouts, saunas, steam rooms, and swimming pools for 48 to 72 hours as heat and bacteria can irritate open micro-channels. Skip active skincare ingredients like retinol, AHAs, BHAs, and vitamin C for at least 5 to 7 days post-treatment. Your provider will walk you through a complete aftercare plan before you leave your appointment.
SkinPen microneedling pricing depends on the treatment zone, number of areas addressed per session, and whether exosome serum enhancement is included. Single session pricing and package rates for recommended series of 3 to 6 sessions are available with package pricing offering the most cost-effective path to full collagen remodeling results.
SkinPen is a microneedling device, specifically the first FDA-cleared microneedling device in the United States. What sets it apart from standard microneedling devices is its precision-engineered needle cartridge, consistent penetration depth, and clinically validated safety profile across all skin tones and Fitzpatrick types. At NUR Med Spa, we use SkinPen precisely because its FDA-cleared status and clinical research backing make it the most trusted, safest, and most predictable collagen induction device available, producing results that are consistent session after session.
Not at all, patients in their 40s, 50s, and beyond are among the most responsive to SkinPen microneedling. As collagen production naturally slows with age, controlled micro-channeling provides a direct stimulus for new collagen and elastin synthesis, addressing the fine lines, skin laxity, uneven texture, and pigmentation that become more pronounced after 40. In fact, mature skin often sees some of the most visible transformations from a progressive microneedling series because the baseline collagen deficit gives the treatment significant room to rebuild. Dr. Saima assesses every patient individually regardless of age to determine the right session intensity and cadence.
Microneedling is not a lymphatic drainage treatment; its primary mechanism is collagen induction through controlled skin injury and repair. However, the increased circulation and localized healing response triggered by SkinPen can contribute to temporary improvements in skin tone, mild puffiness reduction, and overall skin vitality as blood flow increases to the treated zone. For patients specifically seeking lymphatic drainage benefits, our team can discuss complementary wellness treatments that target that concern directly.
