Collagen P.I.N. Benefits

When seeking treatments to rejuvenate the face and body in Washington DC, patients often believe that their options are limited to surgery or non-invasive lasers, radiofrequency, or ultrasound.

However, Collagen P.I.N., also known as microneedling, offers men and women a safe and effective alternative without heating the skin.

In fact, this treatment simply uses very fine needles and mechanical energy to build collagen for a younger and more radiant appearance.

Here are some of the many benefits of Collagen P.I.N.

How Does Collagen P.I.N. Work?

Collagen P.I.N. uses a tip of surgical grade needles to create microinjuries that trigger the body’s natural healing process.

As a result, it stimulates grow factors, collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid which provide the skin with structure and hydration.

Collagen P.I.N. channels also allow for improved absorption of skincare serums and creams, which means that you receive greater benefits from your daily regimen.

What Are the Benefits of Collagen P.I.N.?

Collagen P.I.N. can soften wrinkles and fine lines, lighten hyperpigmentation, reduce photodamage, even skin tone, smooth skin texture, reduce acne scarring, and improve the appearance of stretch marks.

What Are the Advantages of Collagen P.I.N. Compared to Dermal Rollers?

While dermal rollers have fixed needles, Collagen P.I.N. allows the provider to customize treatment and adjust the level of penetration to each area of the face.

Thereby, thinner-skinned parts, such as eyes and forehead, can be treated more superficially and parts with thicker skin, such as the cheeks, neck, and décolletage, can be targeted more deeply.

What Are the Advantages of Collagen P.I.N. Compared to Lasers?

Lasers use light-based energy to reduce dark spots on the face and body, which can potentially cause burns and discoloration in patients with naturally darker skin.

Alternatively, Collagen P.I.N. mechanically breaks up hyperpigmentation, making it safe for all skin types.

The absence of heat also results in minimal downtime following a Collagen P.I.N. session, and any redness or swelling resolves within 24 hours.

When Can I See the Benefits of Collagen P.I.N.?

Some patients note that their skin is more radiant and softer after their first treatment.  However, a series of three-to-five sessions every four weeks is recommended for best results.
