Microneedling, also referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy treats several skin concerns and is minimally invasive.
The pinpricks from microneedling trigger your cells to make new collagen-rich tissue. This ultimately will improve the overall appearance and health of your skin.
Benefits of microneedling include:
The goal of this treatment is to send signals to your skin to re-build collagen and elastin levels.
The simplest way to say it is that microneedling involves the insertion of very fine, short needles into the skin.
By doing multiple passes over each section, it creates thousands of tiny punctures referred to as channels.
Don’t worry though, these tiny needles will not damage your skin.
A serum glide is used while microneedling.
We offer two levels of serum glides:
The ingredients in these advanced serums are cell bio-simulators or exosomes for correction and stimulation.
A series of 4-6 sessions are recommended. After several weeks, you will begin to see gradual results.
And, your skin will continue to improve as the collagen rebuilds.
If you’re in the 40+ age group, we recommend learning about RF Microneedling.
RF Microneedling adds radiofrequency energy under this skin. This is a more powerful treatment for skin tightening and collagen remodeling.
To learn more about specific concerns like under eye wrinkles or jowl and jawline laxity, read on about our non-surgical face rejuvenation treatments.
It will brilliantly boost your ability to produce more skin-firming collagen.

After your treatment, your skin will be slightly pink and puffy for up to 24 hours. It is also common to feel a tightness and/or some tenderness to the treated area the following day. This is a normal reaction.
Approximately, 2-3 days after the treatment, you may experience some dryness and light flaking.
We strongly recommend a medical grade peptide growth factor to boost skin rejuvenation and repair.
A topical numbing cream is applied to the skin in order to maximize comfort during your treatment.
Therefore, microneedling is not super painful.
Results can last for six months after your last treatment.
We recommend starting with 4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Keep your skin young looking – and step out with confidence.
Microneedling should be part of your skin health plan. Collagen levels need to be stimulated in order to maintain results. We recommend maintenance treatments once you have reached your desired goal.

RF microneedling has an advantage over standard microneedling as it delivers radiofrequency energy into deep skin layers for more collagen production.
