“After one treatment I immediately saw the benefits. In particular, the pores on my cheeks are visibly reduced. Equally important, the fresh, brighter condition of my skin has been noticed by friends and colleagues. I witnessed the magic and I’m hooked!” – CV
Microneedling
Experience the power of microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy), a minimally invasive treatment that triggers your skin’s natural repair mechanisms. With small channels created in the skin, this service stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, the essential proteins for youthful and radiant skin. We customize your treatment with potent serums like peptides, growth factors, stem cells, exsomes, skin boosters. Provides immediate glow and lasting results one can get addicted to!
How does work
Don’t let the word “needle” frighten you. This is minimally invasive. Works by triggering the skin’s own repair mechanisms. This trauma prompts the derma, a deeper layer of skin, to rebuild. Microneedling increases the production of collagen and other healing factors by causing trauma to the skin. Collagen is an essential protein that helps keep the skin looking youthful, with a firm, smooth, and stretchy texture. Aging causes the decline of collagen in the skin, contributing to wrinkles and other signs of aging. Skin can also lose collagen due to injuries, such as acne scarring, stretch marks, or other scars.
Does it hurt
We apply topical anesthetic.
We recommend
We are HUGE believer that a Oil Dermaplane treatment before a Microneedling provides a vital foundation necessary for maximum adsorption for optimal results than just Microneedling alone. Cleaning the skin slate for delivery. We strongly recommend our MILLION DOLLAR FACIAL than just Microneedling alone.
How many
The more you do it, the more collagen is produced and the more results you see. There are safety limits to how often, but we typically recommend a series of 3-4 every 4 weeks.
In cases more aggressive treatment schedule is needed such as our Scalp Hair Restoration, a greater number of treatments may be necessary for maximum results. Your skin care specialist will consult with you and prepare a package and regime specifically for your skin type and concern.
