The Perfect Pair: Skin Pen Microneedling + Chemical Peel
One of the most effective duos is Skin Pen microneedling + chemical peels. When done as stand alone treatments they offer great and beneficial results, but when they are combined they can be more efficient to help clients reach their ultimate skincare goals.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a noninvasive skin treatment that stimulates collagen and improves cell turnover. This is done by creating tiny micro injuries in the skin to stimulate your own body's natural wound-healing process to stimulate both collagen and elastin. It is a quick and comfortable treatment that is safe for all skin types and is used to treat fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, acne scars, and evening out skin tone and texture
What is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment that involves applying a solution to the skin to exfoliate its outer layers leaving behind youthful, smoother, more refreshed skin. Chemical peels effectively remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and improve skin texture. They can also address issues like hyperpigmentation, acne, and sun damage.
How This Pair Works Together to Boost Results
Combining Skin Pen Microneedling with a chemical peel really enhances your skin’s appearance when done together during the same treatment. Microneedling prepares the skin by creating tiny channels that allow for better absorption of the chemical peel. This means that the active ingredients in the peel penetrate deeper, providing more significant benefits.
While microneedling stimulates collagen production, the chemical peel helps exfoliate and brighten the skin’s surface. Together, these treatments can improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and promote an overall youthful glow.
