✨ Produce More Collagen ✨
Microneedling is known to stimulate collagen production. When performed in a professional setting, the process involves using fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which triggers the body’s natural wound healing process. This healing process involves the production of collagen and elastin, two key proteins that help keep the skin firm, smooth, and youthful.
In Des Moines & Ankeny, Iowa, Coachlight provides SkinPen microneedling treatments that reduce hyperpigmentation, smooth acne scars and other skin imperfections, and diminish pores, fine lines, and wrinkles. Our expert team is dedicated to revealing your beautiful, radiant, and younger-looking skin. Discover the transformative power of Microneedling and begin your journey to flawless skin today.
At Coachlight we offer complimentary skin consultations to determine your skin care needs. The consult often consists of a VISIA Skin Analysis to help determine treatment recommendations. Prior to your first microneedling procedure, we recommend booking a complimentary VISIA Skin Analysis to determine if you’re a good candidate for microneedling and go over a treatment plan, result expectations, and pricing.

What is SkinPen Microneedling?
SkinPen Microneedling is a highly effective treatment designed to address various skin conditions by creating numerous micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. This process triggers the body’s natural healing mechanisms, enhancing collagen production, skin elasticity, and smoothness. Generating microchannels improves wound-healing capabilities while minimizing cellular damage, promoting comprehensive skin rejuvenation from within. This technique successfully renovates scar tissue without compromising the skin’s structural integrity, leading to a smoother complexion, reduced neck wrinkles, and a diminished appearance of acne scars. The result is revitalized, healthier skin that exudes vitality.
At Coachlight, we use SkinPen, the world’s first FDA-cleared Microneedling device. Our patients benefit greatly from this advanced technology with single-use, sterile needle cartridges, and a custom-designed sheath to prevent cross-contamination, ensuring the highest safety and effectiveness in Microneedling treatments.
How Does SkinPen Microneedling Work?
The SkinPen Microneedling treatment stimulates your skin’s natural healing process. The microneedles create controlled micro-injuries, triggering collagen and elastin production to improve skin tone and texture while reducing scars, acne, and wrinkles. Unlike at-home dermal rollers, the SkinPen penetrates deeper, delivering more dramatic results without heat or chemicals. The process begins with inflammation, causing an immune response that disinfects and increases blood flow. Next, new granulation cells and blood vessels form, rebuilding the microchannels. Finally, new dermal tissues rich in collagen and elastin develop, significantly reducing facial acne scars and neck wrinkles, revealing smoother, more radiant, youthful-looking skin.
Benefits of a SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen Microneedling delivers a range of benefits, such as diminishing acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and pore size, while also softening wrinkles, enhancing skin texture, and brightening and tightening the skin. By using tiny needles to penetrate the skin and stimulate collagen production, this treatment can noticeably reduce the appearance of scars and pores and improve overall skin tone and texture. Plus, it’s a minimally invasive procedure with little to no downtime.

Before, During, and After
What To Expect Before a SkinPen Microneedling
Before your SkinPen Microneedling session, you’ll meet with one of our skilled aestheticians to discuss your skincare goals and address any questions you might have. We’ll design a treatment plan, specifically for you, ensuring it meets your needs. To minimize the risk of bleeding or bruising, please avoid using retinol or exfoliants for a few days before your appointment. Also, avoid certain supplements, alcohol, and aspirin during this time.
What To Expect During a SkinPen Microneedling
During a SkinPen Microneedling session, a handheld device with fine needles gently pricks the skin to create tiny injuries. These micro-injuries trigger collagen and elastin, leading to a smoother, firmer complexion. Most patients report feeling a mild prickling sensation during the treatment.
What To Expect After a SkinPen Microneedling
After undergoing SkinPen Microneedling, you may notice mild swelling for about a day and redness that lasts between 2 to 4 days. Fortunately, the redness can typically be concealed with makeup, allowing most patients to return to work within 1 to 3 days. You’ll start seeing initial improvements in just 2 days as collagen production kicks in, with the best results becoming more apparent over the next 1 to 6 weeks.
