I received one SkinPen treatment and I feel that my temporal hollows are worse after the treatment. My doctor says no. Please help me find the answer to this question before I finish my prepaid treatments. I have read all the literature from SkinPen and see nothing about fat loss as a side effect.
Answer: No Hello there, Fat loss is not possible with micro needling. It does not affect the subcutaneous tissue in any way. Hope this helps. Sarah RN BSN

Answer: No, microneedling doesn’t induce fat loss. Hello, and thank you for sharing your question. There is no evidence to suggest that microneedling could cause fat loss. In fact, it is able to stimulate the skin’s production of collagen and elastin, two important proteins for plump, youthful-looking skin. How long has it been since your appointment? It is possible that you could be experiencing inflammation or swelling that could temporarily affect your appearance. If you still have concerns, contact your provider, or seek a second in-person opinion from a reputable, experienced provider. Best of luck to you.
