I went in for my first-ever microneedling and was a little nervous, but Rosie walked me through everything and made me feel so at ease. The treatment was quick and painless! I quickly saw that my skin was looking smooth and brighter, so I booked my second session.

What's involved

Microneedling, also referred to as “mechanical microneedling” or “traditional microneedling” is a form of collagen induction therapy without Radiofrequency (RF). It is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that improves various skin concerns using an FDA approved (SkinStylus™) device with tiny needles. This process creates tiny controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the skin’s natural healing response which leads to the production of new collagen, elastin, and capillary formation. It revitalizes the skin to smooth out fine lines, texture, scars, even tone, and improve elasticity. Think of it as a “workout for your skin”. 

This procedure can easily be enhanced with use of potent serum boosters such as exosomes, biosomes, and PDRN which all help to accelerate healing and reverse photodamage.

While at-home microneedling devices exist, they come with risks. Any procedure that breaks the skin barrier should be performed in a sterilized environment to prevent infection, most accessible devices are not sterile or cannot achieve the same depth or effectiveness as in-office treatments.

What to expect

1

Cleanse and prep

Your skin is gently cleansed and prepared.

2

Numbing cream

Topical numbing cream goes on before the treatment, unless we've agreed otherwise.

3

Collagen induction

Using the SkinStylus™ device and skin-specific serums, your provider performs collagen induction therapy across the treatment area.

4

Repair and aftercare

High-quality skin-repairing products are applied, and your post-procedure instructions are reviewed in detail.

Downtime

A sunburn-like feeling (redness, tightness, dryness, sensitivity, mild swelling) is normal and lasts 2–4 days depending on how aggressive the treatment is. Redness, swelling and pin-point bleeding right after are part of the natural inflammatory process that drives skin rejuvenation.

Not recommended if

You're pregnant or breastfeeding, have a severe active infection, have had recent chemotherapy or radiation therapy, or are immunocompromised.
