About this treatment
Microneedling at Aura Skin Spa San Francisco uses the Eclipse MicroPen EVO, an FDA-cleared automated microneedling device that creates thousands of precise micro-channels in the skin per second. The controlled micro-injuries trigger the skin's wound-healing response — releasing growth factors and cytokines that stimulate fibroblast activity, collagen synthesis, and elastin production — without the thermal risk associated with energy-based devices.
