Micro-Needling in Buffalo, NY

Micro-needling is a unique treatment that helps to minimize common signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.

Micro-Needling in Buffalo, NYAt the Aesthetic Associates Centre, Dr. Shatkin and his team of skin care specialists offer the SkinPen, which is the first Class II, FDA cleared microneedling device in the U.S. This means that our patients are assured the safest and best device.

Dr. Shatkin and his team train health professionals on the use of the Skin Pen for aesthetic treatments.

The SkinPen microneedling device creates controlled micro-channels in the skin that stimulate the body’s natural wound healing process.

The micro-channels trigger the release of growth factors that lead to remodeling of collagen and elastin.

Micro-Needling can also be combined with other modalities such as the use of PRP injections.
