Skin Pen; the Ultimate Winter Skin Treatment
July 12, 2021Winter Skin Rejuvenation with SkinPen® at Tx Bar Geelong
Looking to refresh your skin this winter? At Tx Bar, we offer SkinPen® microneedling—a TGA-listed medical device clinically proven to improve the appearance of acne scars, melasma, and signs of ageing.
Performed by our Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, and highly trained skin therapists, SkinPen treatments at our Geelong aesthetic skin clinic are personalised to suit your skin goals and are backed by medical expertise and industry-leading technology.
What Is SkinPen®?
SkinPen® is a medical-grade skin needling device that creates controlled micro-injuries to the skin. This process stimulates your body’s natural wound-healing cascade, promoting collagen production, cell renewal, and improved skin texture. It’s one of our most sought-after treatments thanks to its versatility and clinically proven results.
What Can SkinPen® Help With?
Melasma
Melasma is a hormonally influenced skin condition that causes patchy pigmentation, often triggered by pregnancy, contraceptive use, or hormone replacement therapy. Laser treatments are typically avoided in melasma due to the risk of worsening pigmentation.
SkinPen® is an ideal alternative, helping to strengthen the skin and even out tone with minimal heat exposure.
Our expert team will also guide you on medical-grade skincare, such as: SkinBetter Science Even Tone Correcting Serum, and advise on physical sunscreens to prevent further pigment development.
Ageing Concerns
From the age of 25, natural collagen and elastin levels begin to decline. Over time, this results in fine lines, deeper wrinkles, and reduced skin elasticity.
SkinPen® microneedling works by stimulating fibroblast activity, increasing collagen and elastin production to firm, plump, and rejuvenate the skin for a more youthful appearance.
This treatment is commonly combined with antioxidant-rich products and professional retinoids (e.g., Cosmedix Serum 16) to enhance and maintain results.
Acne Scarring
Post-acne scarring, including PIH (Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation), PIE (Post Inflammatory Erythema), rolling and pitted scars, can be persistent. SkinPen’s collagen-induction therapy breaks down fibrous tissue and remodels the dermis, improving both tone and texture.
For optimal outcomes, your treatment plan may include a combination of microneedling sessions and supportive homecare (e.g., Cosmedix Clarity Serum) to reduce inflammation, pigmentation, and scarring.
