Microneedling

This is a highly effective cosmetic treatment for ALL skin types. It works by creating micro-trauma that helps to build natural collagen for smoothing wrinkles, improving skin texture and tone, minimizing acne scarring, decreasing pore size, and reducing dark spots/melasma.

Procedure

Plan on arriving at least 1 hour before your scheduled appointment time for us to apply prescription-strength numbing gel. Once the numbing agents have had time to sink into the skin, the skin is cleansed and prepped for the procedure. The procedure itself takes about 30-45 minutes.

Post-Procedure

After the procedure, the skin is raw, feeling similar to a sun burn. Minor bruising may be experienced in some cases. A post-procedure kit is given after the appointment with samples of products that are gentle on the skin. It is recommended that you avoid any other products than those recommended. Peeling may start 3-5 days after the treatment, and by days 5-7 you can begin to use your normal skincare regimen once again.

For best results, we recommend follow-up and repeat microneedling treatments every 4-6 weeks, with a series of 3-5 treatments depending on your personalized care plan.
