MICRONEEDLING

WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING?

Microneedling is the insertion of very fine short needles into the skin for the purpose of rejuvenation. These very fine needles create tiny punctures (micro channels) in the skin. When those channels are created the skins own repair response is to help stimulate collagen production and elastin, this is to heal that controlled injury that was just created. This in turn makes our skin smoother and tighter. The result is effective remodeling of scar tissue and surface imperfections while keeping the structure of the skin intact. Microneedling has proven to be effective for women and men of all skin tones and skin types.

BENEFITS OF MICRONEEDLING

Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, smaller pores, improves appearance of acne and burn scars, less noticeable stretch marks, smoother skin texture, evens skin tone and reduced sunspots.

Microneedling can be used on the face as well as other areas of the body where you are experiencing aging or damaged skin.

WHAT IS NANO NEEDLING?

Nano needling uses microscopic, hair like needles to penetrate the top layer of skin, called the epidermis, by separating cells and allowing active ingredients to be delivered. The needles used in this procedure only reach the upper 0.15mm of the skin.

The benefits of this serum infusion treatment include reduced pigmentation, improved skin cell turnover, rejuvenation, and an immediate improvement in the skin’s appearance with no recovery time. This treatment can be done on a weekly basis as an exfoliant treatment.

BENEFITS OF NANO NEEDLING

Allows up to 97% product absorption and reduces fine lines, wrinkles, swelling or sagging skin, evens skin tone, improves texture and decreases acne scars.
