FDA-Cleared
SkinPen is the first and only FDA-cleared microneedling device in the United States
What Is SkinPen Microneedling And How Does It Work?
SkinPen Microneedling is an FDA-cleared collagen induction therapy (CIT) that uses a device with 14 precisely engineered micro-needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin's surface. These micro-channels trigger the body's natural wound-healing cascade - stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin without removing or ablating skin tissue.
The Three Phases of Skin Healing Triggered by SkinPen:
- Inflammation Phase (Day 1–2): The micro-injuries stimulate the release of growth factors that signal fibroblasts-the cells responsible for collagen production-to migrate to the treated area.
- Proliferation Phase (Days 3–8): New collagen and elastin fibers begin to form. Granulation tissue develops as the foundation for skin remodeling.
- Remodeling Phase (Weeks to Months): Collagen matures and reorganizes, producing progressively smoother, firmer, and more even skin texture over 3 to 6 months post-treatment.
The key advantage of SkinPen over older microneedling devices is its FDA clearance-achieved after rigorous clinical trials demonstrating both safety and efficacy-and its precision-engineered needle depth control, which allows Dr. Tiffany Jarrett to customize treatment depth based on the specific concern being addressed.
What SkinPen Microneedling Treats at TOCC Aesthetics
- Acne scars-atrophic, rolling, and boxcar scar types respond well to a series of treatments
- Fine lines and early wrinkles-particularly perioral lines and under-eye crepiness
- Enlarged pores-pore size visibly reduces as collagen remodels the surrounding skin structure
- Uneven skin texture-rough or bumpy skin becomes progressively smoother
- Hyperpigmentation and mild sun damage-cellular turnover accelerates, evening tone over time
- Stretch marks-collagen induction improves texture and reduces the appearance of stretch marks
- Overall skin quality and radiance-even patients without specific concerns use SkinPen for skin health maintenance

Your SkinPen Microneedling Appointment at TOCC Aesthetics, Step by Step
Every treatment at TOCC Aesthetics follows a careful, patient-centered process. Here is exactly what to expect:
- Consultation: Tiffany assesses your skin type, concerns, and treatment goals. She recommends the appropriate treatment depth, number of sessions, and any complementary treatments such as PRF.
- Skin Preparation: A topical numbing cream is applied 30 to 45 minutes before treatment for maximum comfort.
- Treatment: The SkinPen device is passed over the treatment area in controlled passes at the calibrated depth. Treatment takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on the area covered. You may experience a mild warmth or scratching sensation.
- Immediate Post-Treatment: Your skin will appear red-similar to a mild sunburn. A soothing serum is applied. You will receive specific aftercare instructions including sun protection and product avoidance for 24 hours.
- Recovery and Results: Redness typically resolves within 24 to 48 hours. Skin may feel tight or slightly rough for a few days as surface healing occurs. Visible improvement begins around 2 to 4 weeks post-treatment and continues to build over 3 to 6 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many SkinPen microneedling sessions do I need?
Most patients see meaningful improvement after 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Deeper acne scars may benefit from 4 to 6 sessions. Dr. Tiffany Jarrett will assess your specific concerns at consultation and recommend the appropriate number of treatments for your goals.
Is microneedling safe for darker skin tones?
Yes-SkinPen Microneedling is safe for all skin types including Fitzpatrick types IV through VI. Unlike laser treatments, microneedling does not use heat energy and carries no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation when performed correctly by a trained provider.
How is SkinPen different from a dermaroller?
SkinPen is an FDA-cleared medical device with motorized, vertical needle insertion - meaning needles enter the skin straight and uniformly. Dermarollers drag needles at an angle, creating uneven channels and increasing the risk of tearing. SkinPen produces superior, more consistent results with better safety.
Can I combine microneedling with other treatments?
Yes-SkinPen Microneedling is frequently combined with PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) for amplified regenerative results. The micro-channels created by the SkinPen allow PRF growth factors to penetrate deeply into the skin. Dr. Tiffany Jarrett will recommend combinations based on your goals.
What is the cost of SkinPen Microneedling in Boynton Beach?
Pricing is provided at your consultation after Tiffany assesses your skin and recommends the appropriate treatment plan. TOCC Aesthetics offers transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden fees.
