Microneedling is the process of inserting superfine needles into the skin to stimulate collagen production. Stimulating collagen production can brighten and improve skin texture and reduce wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. Other conditions that can benefit from the effects of microneedling treatments: acne, eye bags, hair loss, sagging skin around the eyes and jaw, melasma, dark spots, scars, stretch marks, and wrinkles.
A first time microneedling session lasts 1.5 hours to allow more time for the intake. Return visits are 1 hour.
All sessions will include body acupuncture along with the microneedling. The body acupuncture will focus on addressing any underlying imbalances in order to get the most out of microneedling.
After the intake, numbing cream will be applied if the patient so chooses. Body points will then be added while the numbing has time to take effect. The microneedling itself usually takes anywhere from 20-30 minutes. Different serums in a vegan hyaluronic acid are used based on the individual. After the microneedling is complete the patient rests with a cooling aloe mask for about 10 minutes.
Microneedling treatments take place once a month for 4-6 months. The results can last for up to 3-5 years, especially if patients return once every 4-6 months for a treatment. Call or text the clinic for pricing information.
