Q: How is SkinPen™ different from lasers?

Unlike lasers, SkinPen™ breaks up pigment mechanically and stimulates the collagen formation without heat. Removing heat from the equation makes for a safer, more comfortable treatment with a very low complication rate. No heat also equals less downtime! Most SkinPen™ patients are red for 24 hours or less. That advantage means you can get the procedure performed on a Friday and be back to normal for work on Monday.

Q: How long do microneedling treatments usually take?

The procedure takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the size of the area treated. First, a sterile needle-tip containing 12 tiny micro-needles is attached to the Eclipse MicroPen™. Your skincare professional will apply a thin layer of topical gel to your skin and select the appropriate treatment setting based on your unique needs. Next, in a single motion, the pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding until the entire treatment area has been covered. This process results in thousands of superficial microscopic channels throughout the entire treatment area.

Q: Is there any downtime after microneedling treatments?

Immediately after the treatment, you will notice a bright redness to the skin. The total healing time depends on the Eclipse MicroPen™ setting used and the number of overlapping passes your skincare professional performs. On average, patients are red up to 2 to 4 days. Many patients heal completely in as little as 24 hours. Utilizing the Eclipse Dermal Recovery System™, or other quality skin care products, provided by your skin care provider, can help to speed up the healing process.

Q: How many treatments do I need?

Some patients only require a single treatment, once per year, to achieve optimal results. However, it is recommended for most patients to receive a series of 2–3 treatments spaced about 6–8 weeks apart. For patients with deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks or acne scars it is recommended to receive 6–8 sessions at 6-week intervals.

Q: What treatment add-ons should I choose?

At Clarity Medical Spa in San Jose, you can add PRP, PRF, Exosome, and Rejuran PDRN injections to your treatment plan to enhance and extend results. Each supplementary treatment has unique pros and cons, so we recommend discussing your options with Dr. Patel before you start microneedling treatments.

Q: How much does microneedling cost?

Your cost will vary based on your individual cosmetic goals and the treatment plan your aesthetic provider designs for you.

Why invest in expensive and invasive cosmetic surgeries when you can restore skin elasticity and texture the natural way? Clarity Med Spa’s microneedling treatments, or Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), stimulates collagen and elastin production for better skin tone and texture over time. Plus, we offer supplementary PRP, PRF, Exosome, and Rejuran PDRN injections during treatment for the optimal results.

How Microneedling Restores Youthful Skin

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that utilizes the body’s natural collagen and elastin production process to restore youthful-looking skin. Fine needles create tiny punctures at the desired treatment area, triggering the skin’s natural healing response. More specifically, our SkinPen™ can treat all parts of the body; face, neck, décolleté, arms, hands, legs, abdomen and back.

After treatment, increased collagen and elastin leads to skin tightening—reducing the appearance of uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and even large pores.

Because Microneedling can address multiple layers of skin with minimal downtime, it’s one of the safest and most effective treatments for various skin types—from lighter to darker skin tones. Most patients notice better skin quality within a few weeks to months, as the skin begins to naturally renew itself from within.

The Benefits of Microneedling Treatments

Stimulates collagen and elastin: Encourages healthy, firmer skin long-term by tapping into your body’s natural healing processes.
Improves texture and tone: Can help reduce the appearance of not only fine lines, wrinkles, and stretch marks, but also scar tissue caused by acne and other skin conditions.
Safe for most skin types: Effective for patients with both light and dark, oily and dry skin, providing a more even skin tone without the risk of pigmentation issues.
Comprehensive treatments: Can be combined with PRP, PRF, Exosome, or Rejuran® PDRN injections to further improve skin appearance and achieve desired results.
Minimal downtime: Microneedling procedures are minimally-invasive, meaning you can expect only some redness—similar to a mild sunburn—after treatment. The skin’s surface will continue to heal naturally on its own, allowing you to return to daily activities quickly.

Supplemental Skin Rejuvenation For Microneedling Procedures

We combine traditional microneedling procedures with a variety of add-on services, including the latest injectables and topical serums. Here’s how these additional treatments can provide even longer-lasting results:

Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) Injections

These simple injections use your own blood’s growth factors to stimulate even more collagen and elastin, promoting faster healing and deeper rejuvenation after your microneedling treatment. In fact, the improved firmness, radiance, and overall skin texture are so noticeable that this combined treatment is often called the “Vampire Facial.”

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) Injections

Similar to the last option, but often even more powerful, as PRF contains a higher concentration of platelets, white blood cells, and fibrin matrix. This equates to a slower, but more sustained release of growth factors for longer-lasting results.

Exosome Therapy

Exosomes are powerful cell messengers derived from stem cells that promote skin regeneration and repair at a cellular level. Once harnessed for helpful injections, they can enhance microneedling results by helping to reduce inflammation and accelerate recovery. Expect better skin tone, texture, and hydration.

Rejuran® PDRN Injections

Rejuran® PDRN is a revolutionary injectable treatment that uses polynucleotides—powerful anti-inflammatory building blocks derived from salmon DNA—to address skin concerns naturally. Once injected, it improves skin elasticity, firmness, and overall texture for microneedling patients.

Rejuran Healing Essence

Similar to Rejuran® PDRN Injections, this potent topical product is formulated with c-PDRN to accelerate skin healing, support collagen production, and restore hydration. It can be applied after microneedling procedures to stimulate healing within the skin’s deeper layers.

The Microneedling Process: What to Expect

Preparing the Skin

After we carefully assess your medical history and desired results to confirm that microneedling is the best option, Dr. Patel will begin prepping the area. We use a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort and swelling, helping you stay relaxed and comfortable before and after the procedure.

Dermal Filler Injections

Using the SkinPen™—an automated, medical-grade device featuring tiny needles—we can treat skin almost anywhere on your body. The device creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface that stimulate the body’s natural healing process.

Add-On Treatments

After microneedling, injectable and topical PRP, PRF, Exosome, or Rejuran® PDRN can be applied to the area, penetrating the deeper layers of skin for improved healing post-procedure. These supplemental options can both enhance and prolong treatment results.

Recovery & Aftercare

After your minimally-invasive treatment, you may notice mild redness similar to a light sunburn. This typically fades within a day or two, but we recommend avoiding harsh skin products or direct sunlight in the meantime. As collagen production increases, you’ll gradually see smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.

Maintenance Treatments

To maintain youthful skin without plastic surgery, we recommend regular maintenance sessions. We’ll help you schedule follow-up sessions based on your unique needs and treatment timeline.

How Long Do Microneedling Results Last?

Initial results: Noticeable within 2–4 weeks after treatment
Full results: Typically appear after 3–6 months as new collagen forms
Longevity: Results can last 6–12 months, depending on skin condition and lifestyle
With add-ons: Results may last longer—up to 1 year or more.

Individual results may vary depending on each patient. If you are interested in learning more about microneedling treatments offered at Clarity Medical Spa in San Jose, give us a call at (669) 219-1790.

Am I a Good Candidate For Microneedling?

Most men and women looking to restore more youthful-looking skin can benefit from microneedling procedures, as they stimulate the skin’s natural healing process over time. You get improved skin texture, tone, and firmness—all without the need for costly and time-consuming surgeries.

However, some patients should take precaution or talk to Dr. Patel before treatment. It’s important to mention if you:

Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Have a skin infection, inflammation, or active acne around the treatment area.
Have a bleeding disorder or are taking blood-thinning medications.
Have a history of poor wound healing or skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis.
Recently underwent laser treatments or chemical peels where treated areas require additional healing time.
