SkinPen makes thousands of tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin at a precise, chosen depth. Your body treats each one as something to repair and floods the area with fresh collagen and elastin, rebuilding from the inside out. Deeper settings reach scarring and texture, shallow settings suit sensitive first-timers.
Just as usefully, the channels it opens let your skincare travel deeper for days afterwards, so every active you own works harder. It is one of the better-evidenced skin treatments we offer, with real published trial data behind it for acne scarring and texture.
At KB every SkinPen is followed by Dermalux Tri-Wave MD LED to calm the skin and support the repair, and it is often paired with polynucleotides in the same visit to feed the rebuilding directly.

It is the closest thing we have to turning back the clock on scarring, and your skincare works twice as hard afterwards. Scarring is a longer road, think a year or two rather than a month, and we are honest about that from the start.
With numbing cream, most people describe it as scratchy rather than painful. The forehead and jawline are the most sensitive spots.
Three, about a month apart, for most concerns. Deeper scarring sometimes needs more, then three or four a year as collagen banking. Your plan will say.
Yes. SkinPen pairs with polynucleotides in the same visit, and sits well between peels in an acne or pigmentation plan.
