At VITAHL Medical Aesthetics, located in Denver, we offer state-of-the-art microneedling treatments using SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device. Designed to enhance your skin’s natural healing processes, SkinPen is an effective solution for improving texture, tone, and overall radiance.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that stimulates collagen and elastin production by creating tiny micro-injuries in the skin. Using the precision of SkinPen, this process promotes natural healing and rejuvenation, delivering transformative results without extensive downtime.
Microneedling is a versatile treatment that can address multiple skin concerns. It can be used virtually anywhere on the face and body to improve skin tone, texture and radiance. When combined with PRP/PRFM and other serums, it can also stimulate new hair growth on the scalp. At VITAHL Medical Aesthetics, our patients love microneedling for its ability to:
Some devices, like Secret RF, combine microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to further stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving the appearance of skin laxity, stretch marks, deep wrinkles and stubborn acne scars. Our team will assess your concerns and recommend the best microneedling treatment depending on your individual needs and goals.
Microneedling is ideal for most men and women looking to improve overall skin tone, texture and appearance with minimal downtime. Microneedling is suitable for dry, oily or aging skin and delivers progressive results that build with each treatment session. During your initial consultation, our experienced providers will evaluate your needs to determine if microneedling is right for you. We may recommend alternate treatment options for patients with blood clotting disorders, active eczema or psoriasis flare-ups or an increased risk of keloid scarring.

Onto the procedure, the provider was absolutely AMAZING! I have had numerous microneedling treatments & she exceeded my expectations. She was knowledgeable about – not only microneedling – but about ALL aesthetic treatments. She made me feel welcome & comfortable throughout the entirety of my wonderful treatment. I will definitely be back!”

Microneedling is performed in-office at our Denver location. From start to finish, treatment takes about 60-75 minutes to complete, including time for our prescription-grade numbing cream to take effect — this minimizes potential discomfort for a relaxing and pain-free experience.
Once you are numb, your provider will glide the SkinPen device over the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries that trigger the body’s natural healing processes. Depending on your treatment plan, specialized serums or PRP/PRFM may be applied to soothe, hydrate and rejuvenate the skin. Serums are chosen based on your unique concerns and goals. Afterward, you’ll be able to return home and resume all normal activities with minimal downtime.
Following your treatment, you may notice mild redness or swelling, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few days. To optimize your results, follow the personalized aftercare instructions provided by our expert team.
Microneedling results develop gradually and improve with each treatment session. As collagen and elastin production increase, you’ll notice softer fine lines, a smoother texture and a healthy, youthful glow. The overall tone and firmness of your skin will also be noticeably enhanced, with peak results appearing four to six weeks after your last treatment.
Once you’ve completed your recommended series of microneedling sessions, maintenance treatments every six to 12 months can keep your skin looking its best year-round. Combining microneedling with PRP/PRFM or topcial Sculptra can enhance your results and further improve the appearance of wrinkles, acne scars or crepey skin beneath the eyes.
Our commitment to excellence means we stay at the forefront of microneedling innovation. Beyond traditional SkinPen treatments, we offer advanced techniques that can address more complex skin concerns and deliver enhanced results.
Secret RF Microneedling combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to penetrate the deeper layers of your skin. This powerful combination rejuvenates on a deeper level, making it particularly effective for treating skin laxity, more severe wrinkles and stubborn acne scars that may not respond to traditional microneedling alone.
PRP/PRFM add-ons transform your microneedling session into a regenerative powerhouse. When we combine your treatment with platelet-rich plasma or platelet-rich fibrin derived from your own blood, we’re introducing concentrated growth factors that accelerate healing and amplify your results. This combination is especially beneficial for addressing under-eye concerns, hair restoration and overall skin rejuvenation.
At VITAHL Medical Aesthetics, we don’t do “one-size-fits-all.” Our team has perfected the clinical art of microneedling and performed thousands of highly personalized treatments, pairing decades of experience with some of the most advanced tools and techniques available.
We customize every microneedling session based on your unique concerns and goals, adjusting factors like needle depth and serum application to maximize the effectiveness of your treatment. Our on-site medical leadership and experience in treating all skin tones allow us to deliver natural-looking results you’ll love, with every detail of your procedure designed to exceed your expectations and help you achieve your most radiant skin yet.
If you’re looking for a nonsurgical way to improve the overall tone, texture and appearance of your skin, microneedling with SkinPen could be the perfect treatment for you. A consultation at VITAHL Medical Aesthetics will help determine if this treatment aligns with your skincare goals.

The number of microneedling sessions needed varies based on your individual skin concerns and goals. For optimal results, we typically recommend the following treatment protocols:
During your consultation, we will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Absolutely! Microneedling works well with other nonsurgical treatments to enhance your results and address specific concerns. Popular combinations include pairing microneedling with Sculptra to futher improve skin elasticity, or adding PRP/PRFM to your treatment plan to enhance healing, tighten the pores and soften the appearance of wrinkles or under-eye hollows — this is sometimes called the “Vampire Facial.” Our expert team can recommend the most appropriate treatment combinations based on your needs and goals.
Most patients find microneedling very comfortable thanks to our prescription-grade topical numbing cream applied 30-45 minutes before treatment. You may notice a slight tingling or vibrating sensation as the SkinPen glides across your skin, but this is typically well-tolerated. Any mild discomfort subsides immediately after the procedure, and most patients are surprised by how comfortable the experience is compared to their expectations.
While some patients notice an immediate glow from increased circulation after microneedling, the most significant results develop gradually over several weeks. You’ll typically see improvements in skin texture and tone within seven to 10 days as your skin completes its initial healing. Your final results appear in four to six weeks as collagen and elastin production peak.
We recommend avoiding makeup for the first 24 hours after your microneedling treatment to allow your skin to start healing without potential irritation. After this initial period, you may resume your normal makeup and skincare routine. Our team will provide specific aftercare instructions and recommend soothing, gentle products that support your skin’s recovery.
Microneedling is considered very safe when performed by experienced professionals like our team at VITAHL. The most common side effects are mild redness and slight swelling that typically resolve within 24-48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Some patients may experience minor pinpoint bleeding during treatment, which stops immediately. Rarely, patients with sensitive skin might experience temporary dryness or flaking. Our comprehensive aftercare instructions help minimize any potential side effects and optimize your healing process.
