SkinPen is FDA-cleared, not FDA-approved. It was the first FDA-cleared microneedling device. Its cleared indications include improving facial acne scars in adults age 22 and older with all Fitzpatrick skin types and improving neck wrinkles in adults age 22 and older with Fitzpatrick skin types II through IV.

No. Reviv Lounge no longer offers the PRP treatment previously described on this page. Current SkinPen appointments use a selected AnteAGE MD exosome cosmetic option and do not require a blood draw but provides a better outcome

AnteAGE MD Exosome Solution is a topical cosmetic product designed for use alongside aesthetic procedures. AnteAGE describes it as a concentrated, lyophilized formula containing 10 billion exosomes per vial. It is reconstituted before topical application and is not injected.

No. AnteAGE MD Brightening Solution is a separate growth-factor and cytokine formula containing tranexamic acid and other brightening ingredients. It should not be marketed as “brightening exosomes.” Your provider will recommend the formula that better matches your goals.

SkinPen's FDA-cleared indications are improving the appearance of facial acne scars and neck wrinkles in the specified adult skin-type groups. Microneedling may also be incorporated into plans addressing uneven texture, enlarged-looking pores, fine lines, and overall skin quality, depending on professional evaluation.

SkinPen should not be used when contraindications are present, including active skin cancer in the treatment area, open wounds or irritated skin, certain allergies, bleeding disorders, pregnancy or nursing, or current isotretinoin use. Other medical or skin conditions may require postponing treatment. Your provider will review candidacy before proceeding.

Microneedling should not be performed over active inflamed or infected breakouts. Treating active acne can increase irritation and other risks. Reviv Lounge may recommend controlling the acne first and addressing residual scarring afterward.

A topical numbing product may be used to improve comfort. Most patients describe pressure, vibration, or scratching. Sensitivity varies by treatment depth and area, with the forehead and other bony areas often feeling more noticeable.

The microneedling portion can take approximately 30 minutes depending on the area. The full appointment is longer when consultation, photography, cleansing, numbing, AnteAGE MD topical application, and aftercare are included.

Treatment may need to be postponed or avoided during pregnancy or nursing, with an active infection in the treatment area, after recent tanning, or while taking certain photosensitizing medications. This is not a complete list; candidacy is determined during consultation and medical screening.

Redness, warmth, sensitivity, tightness, swelling, dryness, or flaking can occur. Many patients see the most visible redness improve within one to three days, but recovery varies and can take longer after a deeper treatment.

Do not apply makeup until your Reviv Lounge provider says it is appropriate. Timing can depend on your skin response and the specific aftercare protocol. Using products too soon may increase irritation or contamination risk.

Some patients notice early radiance or smoothness after initial recovery. Improvement associated with collagen remodeling develops gradually over the following weeks and months. Results vary by concern, treatment depth, number of sessions, and individual healing.

One treatment may provide a general refresh, but acne scars and broader texture concerns commonly require a series of approximately three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Your provider will personalize the number and timing.

SkinPen creates mechanical microchannels without heat. Morpheus8 combines microneedles with radiofrequency energy for deeper remodeling and skin-tightening goals. Morpheus8 is generally a more intensive treatment. Reviv Lounge will recommend the option that best matches your concern and recovery tolerance.

Yes, a coordinated plan may include more than one treatment when concerns occur at different layers. The procedures may be separated rather than performed together. Timing should be determined by your provider based on skin condition, recent treatments, recovery, and goals.

Cost depends on the treatment area, AnteAGE MD topical option, and whether you choose a single session or series. Reviv Lounge provides exact pricing and package options before treatment is scheduled.
