Botox® Cosmetic temporarily blocks the ability of muscles to contract and form wrinkles on the surface of the skin. It is highly successful with erasing forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, and furrows between the eyes. With continued use of Botox over time, wrinkles will begin to soften and smooth out. It takes 7-10 days to see the full effects of Botox.

SkinPen

Renew your skin. Reveal your confidence.

the Arlo and Ivy storefront

Healthy, radiant skin begins beneath the surface. At Arlo + Ivy Life Spa, SkinPen® (known as microneedling) is a clinically proven collagen induction treatment designed to improve skin texture, soften visible imperfections, and restore a naturally youthful appearance.

As the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, SkinPen stimulates your skin's natural healing response to encourage new collagen and elastin production—the essential building blocks of firm, smooth, healthy-looking skin. The result is gradual, natural-looking improvement that continues to develop long after your treatment.

Whether you're looking to minimize acne scars, soften fine lines, improve skin texture, or simply restore a healthy glow, SkinPen offers a personalized path to stronger, healthier skin.

What Is SkinPen?

SkinPen is an advanced microneedling treatment that creates thousands of precise microchannels in the skin using sterile, medical-grade needles. These controlled micro-injuries activate your body's natural repair process, stimulating the production of fresh collagen and elastin while improving overall skin quality.

Unlike treatments that simply resurface the skin, SkinPen works from within to rebuild healthier skin over time. Because the skin repairs itself naturally, results appear refreshed, balanced, and beautifully authentic.

SkinPen is safe for all skin tones and can be performed on the face, neck, and other areas where smoother, firmer skin is desired.

About SkinPen

Is SkinPen right for you?

SkinPen is an excellent choice for guests who want to improve their skin naturally without surgery or extensive downtime. By stimulating your body's own collagen production, this treatment addresses a wide range of concerns while preserving the unique character of your skin.

It is ideal for concerns such as:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne scars
  • Surgical scars
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Enlarged pores
  • Sun damage
  • Mild skin laxity
  • Dull or aging skin
  • Crepey skin on the neck or décolleté

During your consultation, your esthetician will determine whether SkinPen is the right treatment based on
your skin type, goals, and lifestyle.

Your personalized SkinPen experience

Every SkinPen treatment at Arlo + Ivy begins with a comprehensive skin consultation to understand your concerns and create a customized treatment plan.

Before your treatment begins, a topical numbing cream is applied to maximize comfort. Once your skin is prepared, your provider carefully performs the microneedling treatment using the FDA-cleared SkinPen device, precisely adjusting the depth based on the treatment area and your individual skin concerns.

After your treatment, professional post-procedure products help calm, hydrate, and protect your skin as the natural healing process begins.

Most guests experience redness similar to a mild sunburn for one to three days before revealing smoother, brighter, healthier-looking skin.
