Microneedling



What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that boosts collagen production to reduce signs of aging and improve skin texture. Using the Dermapen® device, it creates tiny punctures in the skin to trigger natural healing and collagen production. This treatment helps with wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, pigmentation, and overall skin rejuvenation. It is a highly effective treatment for cystic acne and scarring.


What does Microneedling do?

The Dermapen microneedling device is guided over the treatment area to create tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin, causing the stimulation of healthy collagen. These small punctures in the skin allow for nutrients to be absorbed into the deep layers of the skin. The body naturally initiates the healing response when there is trauma or an injury. The skin stimulates release of growth factors that will lead to the generation of collagen and elastin. Therefore, when the punctures are made using the Dermapen, the skin will treat the punctures as wounds and therefore initiate healing. This means that microneedling tends to trick the skin to produce collagen and elastin to promote “healing” and the effect will be rejuvenated skin. Additionally, we are able to enhance this therapy at The Logan Institute by filling these small punctures with concentrated platelet-rich fibrin, derived from the patient’s own blood. 


Conditions Microneedling may help:

  • Fine lines & wrinkles

  • Age spots

  • Acne Scars

  • Large pores

  • Other types of scars

  • Reduced skin elasticity

  • Scars from other causes

  • Uneven skin tone

  • Hair loss 


How Does Microneedling Work?

The Dermapen® creates micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin. This “tricks” the skin into healing itself, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin. These micro-punctures also allow nutrients to penetrate deeper, enhancing the skin’s natural repair process. The Logan Institute takes it a step further by using rich growth factors derived from one’s own body to enhance healing.


This therapy DOES NOT require an MD order and is open to non-patients.

Note: The Logan Institute utilizes any number of treatment modalities to best resolve symptoms and the underlying root cause of those symptoms.
