As a technician lightly presses and glides an activated MD Pen™ across your skin, treatment sensations can vary. Most MD Pen patients have reported the treatment to be well-tolerated and to feel like light sandpaper moving across the skin.

The manner in which the MD Pen penetrates the skin will depend on your level of treatment. It is possible to see some pinpoint bleeding that will end shortly after the treatment session.

A full face and neck anti-aging treatment is normally completed within 20 to 40 minutes. Other skin condition treatment times will vary depending on the size and number of the area(s) being treated.

Depending on your treatment goals and your skin condition, you may decide to have a single treatment, or the practitioner may advise you to have a series of four to eight treatments spaced two to six weeks apart.

Immediately after the treatment, your skin may be sensitive to touch and appear red or flushed, similar to a moderate sunburn. Usually, within four to six hours, redness and sensitivity will diminish, and with 24 hours the micro channels will feel healed. Normally, after two to three days, the redness and sensitivity will end, allowing a new, radiant complexion to shine through.

After the procedure, the skin may be red and flushed in appearance, similar to a moderate sunburn. Skin tightness and mild sensitivity may also be experienced. This will diminish greatly within 24 hours.

Internal and external hydration of the skin is essential. Drink lots of water and carefully follow the skin care regimen prescribed by your practitioner, you will receive home care instructions.
