About this explanation

Mechanism reference: manufacturer or clinical source. Your skin, the treatment area and the settings determine the plan.

Start with what you see

What texture concern matters to you, and what recovery window do you have?

Bring us the part that catches your eye. We’ll look at it together, explain what this treatment can and cannot do for you, and discuss the recovery and cost before you decide.

PETRO / THE SKIN PLAN

The Layered Approach.

PETRO’s Layered Approach: a conceptual skin illustration comparing chemical peels, SkinPen mechanical microneedling, HA skin boosters and polynucleotides.
Conceptual illustration. Not to scale. Tap the image to view it full size.

Different tools. Individual treatment plans. SkinPen® is one part of a wider conversation about your skin. We choose the treatment, timing and sequence around your goals.

Chemical peel
Surface exfoliation.
SkinPen®
Mechanical microneedling.
HA skin booster
Product-specific hydration.
Polynucleotides
The exact product and how it is used matter.

These are treatment categories to discuss, not a recommendation to combine all four. The illustration does not show treatment depths or imply that products are delivered through SkinPen®. Product choice, suitability and timing require an individual assessment.

The practical part

Your face. Your calendar. Your call.

Fit. The right choice depends on your anatomy or skin, your goals and your history.

Recovery. We’ll explain what the days after treatment may look like for the plan we recommend.

Price. You’ll know the complete proposed cost before treatment.

The conversation continues

Let’s make a plan.

You tell me what you see. I’ll tell you what I see.

PRP comes from your own blood. It changes the visit and price; it does not guarantee a better result.

Your price is based on the treatment area and plan. We’ll give you a quote before treatment.
