SkinPen® Microneedling: FDA-Cleared Collagen Induction Therapy in Eagan, MN
If your skin has lost its smoothness, brightness, or evenness over time whether from acne scars, sun damage, fine lines, or just the natural aging process SkinPen® microneedling at BioAge Health can help restore it from the inside out.
SkinPen® is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device in the United States, and it’s clinically proven to improve the appearance of acne scars and skin texture for all skin types. At BioAge Health, we use SkinPen® as part of our personalized approach to skin health because how you look on the outside often reflects how you’re feeling on the inside.
WHAT IS SKINPEN® MICRONEEDLING?
SkinPen® microneedling also known as collagen induction therapy is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses a medical grade device to create thousands of microscopic channels in the surface of your skin.
These tiny, controlled micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural healing response: flooding the area with new collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible for keeping skin firm, smooth, and youthful. The result? Gradual, natural-looking improvement in texture, tone, and overall skin quality without surgery, heat, or chemicals.
Unlike aggressive laser treatments, SkinPen® stimulates renewal through your body’s own biology. It’s safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types and can be performed year-round.

- Acne scars and depressed scarring
- Fine lines and wrinkles

SKIN BOOSTERS WITH SKINPEN®
Supercharge Your Results With Add-On Skin Boosters
SkinPen® microneedling is powerful on its own but when you add a targeted skin booster, you can dramatically amplify your results. The micro-channels created during your SkinPen® treatment allow active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin than any topical product could on its own, making your session the perfect opportunity to deliver collagen-builders, hydrators, and regenerative agents exactly where your skin needs them most.
At BioAge Health, we offer three clinically backed boosters that can be added to your SkinPen® session based on your skin goals.
BOOSTER 1 — PDRN Protocol with VAMP™
A medical-grade skin regeneration treatment that pairs SkinPen® microneedling with Korean-skin care favorite PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide extracted from wild-caught salmon sperm), known for its anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, pro-collagen and skin-brightening effects.
VAMPTM (Vitamins, Amino acids/Antioxidants, Minerals, PDRN) is an advanced formulation of high-concentration, medical-grade PDRN combined with a proprietary mix of skin-nourishing, ultrahydrating ingredients such as niacinamide, glutathione and hyaluronic acid delivered directly into the dermis at the moment of peak absorption with SkinPen® microneedling.
Key benefits:
- Wrinkle reduction and improvements in skin texture, and elasticity
- Improves hyperpigmentation
- Creates a smoother, more refined, soft-focus finish
BOOSTER 2 — Glass-Skin Protocol with Daxxify®
The Glass Skin Protocol is a two-modality treatment that combines precision SkinPen® microneedling with intradermal delivery of Daxxify®, the next-gen of botulinum toxin powered by exclusive Peptide Exchange Technology™. Neurotoxin is micro-deposited into the superficial dermis not the muscle layer using the microchannels created during needling, enabling diffuse, uniform distribution for refined skin quality without movement restriction.
Unlike conventional neurotoxin injections that target muscle dynamics, this technique is directed at the sebaceous and eccrine glands within the skin, resulting in measurable improvements in pore size, sebum production, surface texture, and fine-line etching.
The result is visibly smaller pores, reduced shine, and softer fine lines the kind of effortless, healthy skin that looks like it’s lit from within. All with no change to your natural expressions and minimal downtime.
This treatment is ideal for anyone dealing with enlarged pores, oily skin, fine surface lines, or simply wanting that enviable dewy, glass-skin finish.
Key benefits:
- Reduces pore size and oil production when delivered superficially
- Peptide technology supports skin quality and collagen integration
- Improved skin firmness and smoothness with collagen induction
BOOSTER 3 — PRP or PRP with Exosomes
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is derived from a small sample of your own blood concentrated and applied directly to your skin so the growth factors can penetrate through SkinPen®’s micro-channels immediately. PRP with Exosomes takes it further, adding stem cell-derived messenger particles that supercharge your skin’s regenerative response for faster, more dramatic results.
Best for: PRP natural rejuvenation, acne scarring, and anyone new to regenerative treatments. PRP + Exosomes patients wanting the most advanced results, especially for deeper scarring, significant aging concerns, or fastest possible skin renewal.
Key benefits:
- Amplifies collagen and elastin production triggered by SkinPen®
- Accelerates healing and reduces post-treatment redness and downtime
- Improves skin texture, tone, radiance, and scar appearance
- PRP uses your own biology virtually no risk of reaction
- Exosomes add: stimulation of both Type I and III collagen, deeper regenerative signals, and more dramatic improvement in skin density and elasticity
BOOSTER 4 — Rejuran Tone-up Booster (The “Glow” Giver)
Rejuran Tone-Up Booster combines the skin healing, skin hydrating benefits of PDRN and hyaluronic acid in vial 1, with the triple-skin brightening effects of vitamin C, glutathione and tranexamic acid in vial 2, to revive and brighten your skin.
Key benefits:
- Helps to improve dull, uneven skin tone
- Targets pigmentation in the skin in the form of age spots, melasma, sun spots
- Improves skin texture, tone, radiance, and scar appearance
- PDRN and the additional antioxidant properties of vitamin C and glutathione triggers skin rejuvenation as well as boosting luminosity

Frequently Asked Questions
Is SkinPen® microneedling painful?

How many SkinPen® treatments will I need?
For most patients, a series of 3–6 sessions spaced about 4 weeks apart delivers the best results. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan based on your specific concerns acne scars typically require more sessions than surface texture issues.
Is SkinPen® safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. SkinPen® is FDA-cleared for all Fitzpatrick skin types and carries a lower risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared to many laser treatments. It can also be performed year-round, regardless of season or sun exposure level.
Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. SkinPen® pairs well with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy for enhanced collagen stimulation, as well as supportive skincare products from brands like SkinBetter, Alastin, and Revision. Your BioAge provider will recommend the right combination for your goals.
How is SkinPen® different from Morpheus8?
Both are excellent collagen-stimulating treatments, but they work differently. SkinPen® uses mechanical micro-channels to trigger your skin’s natural healing response no heat involved.
