Talk through your skin goals
Revi reviews your scars, skin history, medications, and recent treatments. Tell your provider if you tend to form raised scars, have had cold sores, or take isotretinoin.
If breakouts have left scars that change the texture of your skin, SkinPen may help soften their appearance. At Revi, we start by looking at your skin and talking through the results you can realistically expect.
SkinPen Precision is a mechanical microneedling device. It uses fine needles to make tiny punctures in the skin, triggering a healing response that can change how scars look. SkinPen Precision is FDA cleared to improve the appearance of facial acne scars in adults 22 and older across all Fitzpatrick skin types. Results vary.
Read SkinPen’s patient guide or see the FDA’s microneedling guidance.
Revi reviews your scars, skin history, medications, and recent treatments. Tell your provider if you tend to form raised scars, have had cold sores, or take isotretinoin.
Your provider explains what SkinPen can address, what it may feel like, and whether another option would better suit your skin.
Review aftercare before your visit, including sun protection, when to resume your usual skincare, and how to plan around an upcoming event.
SkinPen is used to improve the appearance of facial acne scars. Tell your provider if you have an active breakout or irritated skin so they can advise you on timing.
Redness, dryness, tightness, or tenderness can occur after treatment. Less common risks include infection and changes in skin color. Your provider will explain aftercare and when to call.
That depends on your skin, scarring, and response. At your visit, ask what results are realistic, how many visits might be appropriate, and what the plan would cost.
