Hello,Thank you for the question. Microneedling is a procedure that uses a motorized device to create microchannels to stimulate collagen. Even though many clinics carry similar devices, it is important to have the procedure performed by an experienced provider since technique matters. The device should not "sit" on the skin or drag since it can cause micro-tears. With proper technique, the treatment actually minimizes old scars and reduces the appearance of enlarged pores.Thank you,Chase Lay, MD
Thank you for your question. Microneedling should not cause tears to the skin or enlarged pores if it is performed correctly. What Microneedling does whether Dr. Pen is used or another FDA approved brand, it creates micro-channels and controlled damage that will allow your body to heal it by producing collagen and improving overall appearance of the skin.
