Microneedling
Achieve smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin with SkinPen® microneedling, a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural rejuvenation process. At Timeless Youth MD in West Des Moines, we provide this advanced treatment to help you eliminate fine lines, acne scars, and uneven texture. Microneedling is a safe and effective way to revitalize your skin and enhance its appearance without extensive downtime.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface using fine, sterilized needles. As a result of these tiny punctures, collagen and elastin are produced, which maintain the skin’s youthfulness and radiance. Whether you want to reduce wrinkles, improve scars, or enhance your skin’s overall tone, microneedling can help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

How Microneedling Works
Microneedling, particularly with SkinPen®, involves using specialized microneedles to create micro-injuries in the skin. This innovative approach triggers the body’s natural healing processes, significantly enhancing collagen and elastin production. The SkinPen® not only promotes smoother skin and reduced appearance of scars but also improves overall skin firmness for more radiant results.
At Timeless Youth MD, this treatment is conducted using the SkinPen® device, which is carefully moved across the targeted areas, precisely addressing your specific skin concerns. After the treatment, you may notice some redness, akin to a mild sunburn, which quickly fades, revealing a glowing complexion. The advanced technology of SkinPen® helps to elevate the results further, providing you with a more enhanced and effective microneedling experience.
Faq's
Microneedling is ideal for individuals looking to address fine lines, acne scars, stretch marks, or uneven skin texture. It can be used on any skin type or tone. Schedule a consultation to see if this treatment is right for you.
In most cases, patients notice improvements in their skin texture within a few days, with significant results visible after several weeks through an increase in collagen production.
The results can last several months, depending on your skin’s natural aging process and skincare routine. Periodic maintenance sessions are recommended for optimal results.
There is little to no downtime after microneedling. There may be a slight redness and mild swelling after treatment, but these effects typically resolve within 3–4 days.
Before Microneedling, avoid using retinoids or exfoliants for a few days and arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. A specific post-procedure regimen will be recommended.
It’s best to avoid makeup for 3-4 days following treatment to avoid damaging the skin. Once the redness subsides, you can resume your usual makeup routine with clean, gentle products.
