How to Use Your SkynPen™

With just a few simple steps, SkynPen™ takes you beyond surface care - awakening collagen, smoothing texture, and restoring your glow from within.

How to Use Your SkynPen™ - Safely & Effectively

1. Disinfect the Cartridge (Before Use)
Always disinfect the needle cartridge before each use to ensure a safe, hygienic treatment.
Use 70%+ isopropyl alcohol and a clean container. Let the cartridge soak for a few minutes or spray the needle head and allow it to air-dry completely.

2. Insert the Needle Cartridge

Carefully remove a sterile cartridge from its packaging. Align the cartridge’s round slots with the device connector slots and push it in horizontally until it clicks. Lock it in place by turning it counter-clockwise.

3. Adjust the Needle Length
For home use, keep the needle depth at or below 0.5 mm — ideal for glow, hydration, fine lines, and mild texture concerns.
Use the adjustment ring on the device:
• Turn clockwise to increase needle length.
• Turn counter-clockwise to decrease needle length.
Ensure the device is powered on before adjusting the depth.

4. Set the Speed & Power On
Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to switch the device on or off.
It starts at the lowest speed and increases with each short press.
The faster the indicator light blinks, the higher the speed level (1–5).

5. Glide Gently
Move the pen in smooth vertical, horizontal, and diagonal motions without applying excessive pressure.
Focus on areas with fine lines, scars, uneven tone, or enlarged pores.

6. Aftercare
Immediately apply a hydrating, soothing serum (e.g., hyaluronic acid or peptides).
Avoid retinoids, acids, sun exposure, and heavy workouts for at least 48 hours.
Always finish with SPF during the day.

7. Remove the Cartridge (if needed)
Twist the cartridge clockwise and pull it out horizontally while pressing the release points.

Needle Types & Recommended Use

Needle Type Description Best For
Nano No actual penetration; creates micro-channels on the surface layer. Product infusion, skin brightening, sensitive skin, BB Glow treatments.
9–12 Pins Fewer needles = deeper, more targeted penetration. Acne scars, deep wrinkles, precise corrective work.
16–18 Pins Balanced coverage with comfortable depth. Refining pores, mild pigmentation, overall skin renewal.
24–36 Pins Medium coverage with less aggressive penetration. Larger facial areas, skin texture smoothing, early signs of aging.
42 Pins Widest coverage with shallower penetration. Stretch marks, body treatments, overall surface texture improvement.

Expert Tip: Fewer pins penetrate deeper, making them more effective for scars and pronounced wrinkles — but they require extra care to avoid irritation.

Reminder: More pins cover larger areas and work more superficially, making them ideal for skin texture, mild discoloration, and preventative anti-aging treatments.

Safety Note: For at-home use, keep needle depth ≤0.5 mm for safety and optimal healing.

Understanding Needle Depth

Microneedling shouldn’t hurt — but it should work.

SkynPen™ gives you precise control from 0.25 mm to 3.0 mm, so you can tailor every session to each area of your face and body. Gentle for sensitive zones, powerful for visible transformation.

  • 0.25–0.5 mm — glow, hydration boost, improved absorption.
  • 0.5–1.0 mm — refines texture, reduces pores, smooths fine lines.
  • 1.0–2.5 mm — targets scars, stretch marks, and sagging skin.

Safety: For at‑home use, keep depth ≤ 0.5 mm for maximum safety and optimal healing.

Unlike dermarollers, SkynPen™ adapts to your skin, treating both the epidermis and dermis to trigger collagen and deliver lasting results.
