what is microneedling?
microneedling is also known as Collagen Induction Therapy. this is because the tiny stainless steel, surgical needles create pin-point micro injuries in your skin, which essentially forces your skin to produce more collagen and elastin. using sterile medical grade serums customized for your skin, with the disposable precision tips creates a perfect synergistic effect that is more than 300% absorbed into your skin with safe delivery. your home skin care routine will also be better received for 4-6 weeks following your treatment. you will notice your skin care products are performing better because of how much more your skin is able to absorb them! this targeting treatment can also be performed on the body and scalp.

is the treatment painful?
a topical 5% lidocaine numbing cream, is applied before the session to minimize any potential discomfort.
how many sessions are required?
the number of sessions needed depends on your skin concerns and goals.
in general, a series of 3 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, is recommended for optimal results.
some people may only require a single treatment once a year to achieve their desired results.
when will i see results?
you may notice an immediate improvement in skin radiance post-microneedling, with continued improvement in texture and vitality over the coming days.
we recommend consulting with your esthetician to establish a tailored at-home skincare routine that complements and sustains these results. consistent post-treatment care is essential for maintaining the achieved outcomes
what is the downtime?
post-treatment, expect redness and slight tingling or tightness as the numbing wears off.
healing time depends on factors like the number of passes and your skin's natural ability to recover.
on average, redness lasts from a few hours to a day.
follow post-care instructions for optimal recovery and minimal downtime after microneedling.
