Microneedling (SkinPen)

Elite Aesthetics uses the FDA-cleared SkinPen device for facial and body microneedling. The treatment creates controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving fine lines, pore size, acne scars, stretch marks, and skin laxity. Facial sessions are priced from $500. A series of three to six treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is recommended, with minimal downtime of approximately 72 hours of redness.

SkinPen microneedling at Elite Aesthetics NYC uses an FDA-cleared collagen induction device to create thousands of precise micro-injuries in the dermis, triggering the skin's natural repair cascade. The resulting surge in collagen and elastin production gradually tightens, smooths, and resurfaces the treated area without the extended recovery associated with ablative laser procedures. Facial microneedling addresses fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, and general dullness. Topical anaesthetic cream is applied prior to treatment to ensure comfort. The procedure takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes including numbing time, and patients typically experience redness similar to mild sunburn for up to 72 hours. Facial pricing starts at $500, with a treatment range of $500–$700 depending on the area and any add-ons. Body microneedling extends the same collagen-stimulating mechanism to stretch marks, skin laxity on the abdomen, thighs, or arms, and cellulite texture — priced on consultation based on surface area. For optimal outcomes, a series of three to six sessions spaced four to six weeks apart is recommended, allowing cumulative remodeling between appointments. SkinPen microneedling can be combined with PRP or PRF serums applied immediately post-treatment to enhance growth factor penetration into the freshly created channels. Elite Aesthetics serves patients from NoMad, Chelsea, Flatiron, Gramercy, East Village, and the broader New York City area looking for non-surgical skin renewal with measurable, progressive results.
