After cleansing your skin, a topical numbing cream is applied for approximately 30 minutes. A sterile applicator containing 12 tiny micro-points is attached to the Eclipse MicroPen. Your skincare professional will apply a thin layer of gliding serum to your skin and select the appropriate treatment setting based on your unique needs. Next, in a single motion, the pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding until the entire treatment area has been covered.
The procedure takes from 30 to 45 minutes depending on the area treated as it is popular to treat the neck and décolleté with microneedling. Once the treatment is completed, the area is cleansed and Alastin Skin Nectar is applied to promote quick healing. Next sunscreen is applied, and you are on your way to daily activities.
You may experience some mild redness, swelling and a warm sensation that day but most patients are able to apply makeup the next day. It is important to combine the treatments with a skin care regimen as your skin may be dry and flaky for a few days as you heal. The treatment is most effective in a series of 3 -6 treatments every 4-6 weeks depending on the treatment goals.
Each patient has unique skin needs and requirements. The safety and control features of the Eclipse MicroPen Elite lead to predictable, consistent results. Compared to lasers and dermal rollers, MicroPen can deliver reliable and improved outcomes for virtually every patient.
