Process
Understanding the science behind FDA-cleared collagen induction therapy and what to expect from your clinical journey at Raffles Aesthetics.
What is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device. It creates thousands of precisely controlled micro-injuries to stimulate your skin's natural healing response while triggering the production of new collagen and elastin.
How does Collagen Induction Therapy work?
The treatment initiates a three-phase healing process: inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This science-led approach improves skin texture, reduces the appearance of fine lines, and refines acne scarring.
What can I expect during the session?
Following a bespoke skin analysis, a topical numbing agent is applied for comfort. The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, during which you will feel a light vibration and mild pressure as the device passes over the skin.
Is there any post-treatment downtime?
Downtime is minimal. Most patients experience slight redness and swelling for 24-48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Clinical glowing results typically surface within a week as the skin begins its natural rejuvenation.
Not all microneedling devices are created equal. At Raffles Medical Aesthetics, we have meticulously chosen SkinPen® for its unparalleled safety profile and robust clinical evidence, ensuring our patients receive the gold standard in collagen induction therapy.
