SkinPen Microneedling in Wesley Chapel, FL
By middle age, you may notice that face masks and creams don’t deliver the results they once did. At Qvita Health and Wellness in Wesley Chapel, SkinPen® microneedling stimulates new collagen growth from within your skin for firmer, smoother, more radiant results, helping to soften scars, fine lines, and enlarged pores with minimal downtime.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, stimulates skin and tissue strengthening by creating controlled microscopic channels in the skin’s surface. Your body quickly heals these tiny injuries by producing new, collagen-rich tissue.
During treatment, a member of our team uses the SkinPen, a precision handheld device with a series of tiny sterile needles, to create these micro-channels. A topical anesthetic is applied beforehand so you’re comfortable, and a soothing serum is applied afterward to calm the skin. Within a couple of weeks, your skin displays a renewed glow with fewer blemishes and wrinkles.
Benefits of Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment for the face, body, or both. New collagen growth helps improve old scars and blemishes while making skin tighter, firmer, and stronger. After treatment, you’ll see fewer:
- Stretch marks
- Scars from injuries and surgery
- Acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Fine lines
- Age spots and uneven tone
The overall effect is even more striking than individual improvements. Just weeks after treatment, skin looks smoother, more youthful, and brighter.

What Is Recovery Like After Microneedling?
Your skin may look pink, similar to a mild sunburn, for a day or two, and many patients agree recovery is very tolerable. You can return to work and resume makeup and sunscreen just 24 hours after your procedure. If you feel comfortable, there’s no need to set aside time for recovery at all.
How Long Do Results Last?
Everyone’s skin is different, so longevity depends on your age, starting skin condition, and home care. Most patients achieve the best results with a series of treatments spaced about four to six weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions as part of a regular skincare regimen.
