Do you have signs of facial aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, or upper lip lines? How about acne scars, other scars, or stretch marks? Microneedling could be for you! COSMOPen® microneedling is a form of Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), which helps your skin form new tissue layers of elastin and collagen fibers, as well as new capillaries for improved blood supply in the treated area.

You can see and feel an improvement in your skin after the first or second treatment. Treat your skin imperfections with COSMOPen microneedling from GLOW Surgical Arts!

Microneedling is an alternative to fractional laser, intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment and chemical peels, and helps treat:

  • acne
  • scars
  • wrinkles
  • stretch marks
  • pore size
  • signs of aging

What is the COSMOPen?

The COSMOPen is a new medical-grade, high-speed microneedling system that offers the same results as other treatments, such as fractional laser, with reduced pain, downtime, expense, and thermal damage. In addition, COSMOPen helps naturally induce collagen production and treat irregular pigmentation by vertically piercing the skin with its disposable 12-pin tips.

What makes COSMOPen the best device on the market?

COSMOPen is the most innovative device on the market and outperforms both DermaRollers and other microneedling systems. Check out the pros and cons below:

What areas of my body can be treated?

The COSMOPen is versatile, and can be used on all skin types to treat a variety of skin concerns. The small tip makes it easy to use on even the smallest of treatment areas. Talk to your doctor about your treatment options during your consultation.

What does microneedling treatment feel like?

In most cases, your doctor will apply a topical anesthetic to your skin prior to COSMOPen treatment. This allows you to relax relax with minimal discomfort throughout your procedure.

What is the downtime for microneedling treatment?

Downtime with the COSMOPen is minimal due to its design and fast-acting movement. However, you may experience some redness after your treatment for 12 to 48 hours.

When will I see results?

You will be able to notice some improvement immediately after your first or second treatment. After four to six treatments, spaced 10-15 days apart, you will see more significant results as the collagen remodeling takes place over time. Over the following six months to one year after undergoing COSMOPen treatments, your skin will continue to improve with a proper skin care regimen recommended by your doctor.
