What does this mean?  It means that we use finely tuned stimulating energy that is sent very precisely to multiple levels of the lower layers of your skin with virtually painless microneedles. This both mechanically and energetically promotes increased metabolism and collagen production in your skin cells at all levels.  Unlike most aesthetic treatments, this one works from the inside-out, making it effective even where topical treatments have failed..  This makes your skin tighter, plumper, and more elastic.  You can think of this as a non-surgical facelift, and the results can be pretty dramatic! 

If you have cellulite, deep lines and wrinkles, stretch marks, deep scarring, chronic bags under your eyes, sagging skin, “turkey neck” or drooping eyelids, this treatment is an effective and powerful therapy for changing how you look.  If you’ve thought about plastic surgery for any of these conditions, you owe it to yourself to consider this non-invasive, non-surgical option that has shockingly great long term results in only about an hour.

While microneedling is both very safe and very minimally invasive, there are some things you should consider before treatment.  If you are or have taken Accutane, have a skin infection, have a significant skin disease like psoriasis, you’re taking anticoagulants, are pregnant, or undergoing chemotherapy, microneedling is contraindicated.  The treatment is effectively a very controlled and specific stress and damage to the skin that makes it healthier in the long run.  So if you have a compromised immune system, your blood doesn’t clot, or you have difficulty healing from minor, superficial skin damage, microneedling is not a good choice for you.

Conversely, microneedling is an excellent option if you’re in good health and experiencing some early signs of aging! This kind of treatment is especially appealing in preparation for anticipated major events like school reunions, since it has fantastic results for most clients, but can take several months to achieve maximum results.  Just make sure you protect your skin for several days after treatment with sunscreen and avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after treatment to allow your skin to recover.

The most important thing to understand for obtaining best results is that you’re going to need 3 treatments 6 to 8 weeks apart. After this initial round of treatments to achieve your desired results, you will need occasional, typically annual, touch-up treatments for maintenance.  Otherwise, you can expect your results to last as long as a traditional face lift.
