Renew, Restore & Rejuvenate Your Skin Naturally
Reveal smoother, firmer, healthier-looking skin with SkinPen® Precision Elite Microneedling at Acubalance. This medical-grade collagen induction therapy stimulates your body’s natural healing response to improve skin texture, tone, and overall radiance.
By creating thousands of precise microchannels in the skin, SkinPen® Precision Elite encourages the production of new collagen and elastin—the essential building blocks for youthful, resilient skin. As your skin repairs and renews itself, fine lines, acne scars, uneven texture, enlarged pores, and signs of aging gradually become less noticeable.
Microneedling Can Help Improve:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Acne scars and other mild scarring
• Skin laxity and loss of firmness
• Uneven skin texture and tone
• Enlarged pores
• Sun damage and pigmentation concerns
• Overall skin radiance and glow
The Acubalance Difference
At Acubalance, we combine SkinPen® Precision Elite Microneedling with post-treatment red light therapy (photobiomodulation) to support healing, reduce inflammation, and further stimulate collagen production.

Why We Combine Microneedling with LED Red Light Infrared Therapy (Photobiomodulation)
At Acubalance, every SkinPen® Precision Elite treatment includes LED red light infrared therapy (photobiomodulation) because the combination delivers more than either treatment alone. Microneedling creates the signal. Red light therapy amplifies the response. This powerful combination helps your skin heal smarter, recover faster, and achieve optimal results from each treatment.
LED red light infrared therapy (photobiomodulation) works at the cellular level by stimulating mitochondrial energy production (ATP), the fuel your cells need for repair and regeneration without damaging the skin’s surface. When applied after microneedling, red light therapy helps calm inflammation, support tissue healing, reduce post-treatment redness, and optimize collagen remodeling.
What to Expect
Your treatment begins with a thorough skin cleansing and consultation to ensure the procedure is tailored to your goals.
A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort before treatment.
During the procedure, SkinPen® Precision Elite is gently passed over the skin to create controlled microchannels. Most patients describe the sensation as mild pressure with light scratching and find the treatment very tolerable for their desired results.
Following treatment, a soothing sterile cooling mask and (photobiomodulation) red-light infrared therapy are applied to calm the skin and support recovery.
You will leave with mild redness, similar to a light sunburn, which typically settles within a few days.
Results
Many patients notice brighter, smoother skin within the first week. As collagen production continues, improvements in skin texture, firmness, fine lines, and scarring develop gradually over the following weeks and months.
Benefits may include:
• Smoother skin texture
• Improved skin firmness and elasticity
• Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
• Softer appearance of acne scars
• More even skin tone
• A healthier, more radiant complexion

Recommended Treatment Plan
The number of sessions can vary depending on your skin concerns and goals. However, many patients see noticeable improvement after just a single session. A series of 3 to 8 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is often recommended.
