Microneedling is a non-surgical cosmetic skin treatment that creates micro-channels in the skin’s dermis via an electric pen. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping to improve texture, tone, and firmness. It is an anti-aging treatment that produces natural, gradual results over several months. Typically 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart are recommended.

Microneedling can reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, hyperpigmentation, sagging skin, and hair loss. It can enhance the firmness and plumpness of skin, increase luminosity, and create more evenness in texture and tone.

A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to keep you comfortable. Most clients describe it as a light vibration or prickling sensation. The skin may feel like a mild sunburn post-treatment.

Avoid retinol, exfoliating acids, and tanning for a week prior to treatment. Avoid chemical peels, botox, microdermabrasion, laser treatment, and waxing the treatment area for at least 2 weeks prior. Arrive with clean skin and no makeup.

For hair growth, please arrive with freshly washed hair, no styling products.

After cleansing and numbing with an optional topical lidocaine, a handheld microneedling pen (as pictured) is passed over the face and neck. A serum of hyaluronic acid and vegan stem cells are then applied, along with red light therapy, to enhance collagen and elastin production. It can be described as a buzzing sensation, as well as some mild stinging and burning.

Nano-needling is available to individuals with sensitive skin, which penetrates the skin at a shallower depth for increased comfort.

You may have redness or mild swelling for 24-48 hours, which may look and feel like a moderate sunburn. SPF protection will be necessary during this time due to increased sensitivity. You will also need to avoid showering, sweating, wearing makeup, and applying skin products beyond a gentle cleanser and moisturizer during this period.

Typically a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart give best results. Improvements are gradual, seen over several months. Results typically last a year with maintenance treatments.
