Artisan’s Microneedling Devices: 4 Luxury Choices
Many practices carry more than one microneedling device. The number of devices depends on:
- Provider preferences
- Area demand
- Treatment goals
At Artisan, Dr. Diane Z. Alexander, MD, FACS, and Dr. Bernadette Wang Ashraf have hand-picked 4 microneedling systems that give our patients a wide range of customizable options.
They deliver results both for immediate improvements and for long-lasting satisfaction.
SkinPen
The FDA-cleared SkinPen mechanical microneedling device uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. The resulting “microchannels” trigger a cascade of natural healing mechanisms, stimulating the body’s collagen and elastin production.
Over several weeks following the treatment, patients experience improvements to:
- Skin texture
- Fine lines
- Mild acne scarring
We often recommend SkinPen for patients new to microneedling or to patients who want a gentler treatment with minimal downtime.

Microneedling Add-Ons, Including Salmon DNA
During your microneedling session, we can apply serums so that these nourishing formulations reach deeper into your skin via microchannels created by the microneedles.
Among the serums Artisan offers is Salmon DNA. By applying polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) derived from DNA in salmon sperm, patients experience enhanced benefits, including:
- Accelerated healing
- More even skin tone
- Deeper hydration
- Boosted collagen induction
- Reduced inflammation
Creating the Serum
First, manufacturers extract the PDRNs from the salmon sperm. Strict processing and purification break down the PDRNs into active components biocompatible with human skin. These components stimulate cellular repair and regeneration in skin, supporting skin health, hydration, and textural improvements.
Treatment Application
Salmon DNA serum usually contains other beneficial ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid and even peptides, to boost skin hydration and cellular repair.
Once we finish the actual microneedling, we apply the Salmon DNA serum to your skin. The serum goes deep into the microchannels, supporting your skincare goals.
- Anti-Aging: The boost in collagen production supports cellular renewal, reducing the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
- Improved Skin Tone and Texture: Salmon DNA serum elevates the results of microneedling for more even skin tone and smoother, more elastic skin texture.
- Hydration and Nourishment: The hydrating power of Salmon DNA serum penetrates more deeply after Atlanta microneedling, nourishing multiple layers of skin for a healthy, radiant “glass skin” glow.
- Post-Treatment Recovery: The serum helps to accelerate healing and reduce post-microneedling inflammation while improving results.
Even Vogue Magazine loves what Salmon DNA serum does for skin after microneedling. We can include it in your individualized microneedling care plan to elevate your complexion and overall skin health.

What Is the Best Age for Microneedling?
Microneedling doesn’t have a specific best age. However, patients at different ages do apply this therapy for different skin goals.
- Patients in their 20s to 30s often use microneedling to even skin tone and reduce acne scarring.
- Patients in their 40s and beyond frequently use microneedling to address the signs of aging while reviving collagen stores for better skin health.
- Patients from their 20s to 60s choose Atlanta microneedling to clear skin concerns and create a youthful, healthy, red-carpet glow.
How Often Should You Get Microneedling?
For an initial microneedling treatment plan, most patients undergo 3 to 6 sessions, which we space 4 to 6 weeks apart to give your skin enough time to heal and produce collagen between sessions.
Results improve over time. Many patients schedule periodic maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months to maintain their skin rejuvenation.
