MICRONEEDLING

Unlock your skin's natural healing power. This minimally invasive treatment uses precision micro-needles to create controlled micro-injuries, triggering your body to produce fresh collagen and elastin. The result? Smoother texture, diminished scars, refined pores, and a radiant, youthful glow—all with minimal downtime.

HOW IT WORKS

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, harnesses your body's innate ability to heal and regenerate. Using a state-of-the-art pen device equipped with ultra-fine, sterile needles, your esthetician creates thousands of microscopic channels in the skin's surface.

These controlled micro-injuries trigger your body's wound-healing response, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin—the proteins responsible for firm, youthful, resilient skin.

The treatment begins with thorough cleansing and the application of a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort. Once the skin is prepared, the microneedling device is passed over the treatment area in precise, controlled patterns. The adjustable needle depth allows your provider to customize the treatment intensity based on your specific concerns and the area being treated—gentler around delicate eye areas, more intensive on acne scars or stretch marks.

As your skin heals over the following days and weeks, those microscopic channels close, but the collagen-building process continues for months. This is why results from microneedling are both immediate (a fresh, glowing complexion) and progressive (continued improvement in texture, tone, and firmness over 3-6 months).

WHY OUR CLIENTS LOVE THIS SERVICE

louis_buniak_Close-up_of_professional_microneedling_pen_devic_1e6552f7-6586-435e-8188-505b

Our clients love microneedling because it delivers dramatic results using their body's own healing mechanisms—no synthetic fillers, no harsh chemicals, just their skin performing at its absolute best.

Our clients love the versatility. Whether they're targeting stubborn acne scars from their teenage years, fine lines creeping around their eyes, or overall dullness and texture issues, microneedling addresses multiple concerns in a single treatment.

Our clients love watching their results improve over time. Unlike treatments that fade, microneedling results actually get better in the weeks following treatment as new collagen continues to form. As one client shared: "At two weeks I thought my skin looked great. At two months, I couldn't believe I was looking at my own reflection. My acne scars that I'd had for 15 years are barely visible now."

Our clients love that the treatment enhances their entire skincare routine. The microchannels created during treatment allow serums and active ingredients to penetrate up to 200% deeper than normal application—maximizing the investment they make in quality skincare products.

Our clients love the minimal downtime. Most experience just 24-48 hours of mild redness (like a light sunburn) before revealing fresher, more radiant skin. Many schedule their appointments on Thursday or Friday and are glowing by the weekend.

Our clients love that results are natural and gradual. Friends and family notice they look refreshed and well-rested—not "done." The improvement is undeniable but never artificial.

THE EVOLUTION: FROM OLD TREATMENTS TO OUR MICRONEEDLING

The Problem with Traditional Approaches

 

Before microneedling technology advanced, people seeking to address scars, texture issues, and signs of aging faced limited and often problematic options.

Dermabrasion, developed in the 1950s, used a rotating wire brush or diamond wheel to literally sand away layers of skin. While effective for deep scarring, it required general anesthesia, caused significant bleeding, and demanded weeks of recovery. Risks included permanent pigmentation changes, infection, and scarring—sometimes worse than what patients started with.

Aggressive laser resurfacing offered another option but came with substantial downtime (often 2-3 weeks of raw, oozing skin), significant discomfort, and serious risks for anyone with darker skin tones, who faced potential hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.

Deep chemical peels could address some texture concerns but provided inconsistent results for scarring and required extended recovery periods with visible peeling and social downtime.

Early microneedling devices—the dermarollers of the early 2000s—showed promise but had limitations. The rolling motion created angled needle entry, causing more tissue damage and inconsistent depth. Results were modest, and at-home devices often caused more harm than benefit when used incorrectly.

The Modern Microneedling Difference

Today's professional microneedling technology represents a quantum leap forward. Our advanced pen devices feature:

  • Vertical needle entry for precise, consistent depth and minimal tissue trauma

  • Adjustable depth settings (0.25mm to 2.5mm) allowing customization for different areas and concerns

  • High-speed oscillation for more comfortable treatment with less dragging on the skin

  • Single-use sterile cartridges eliminating any cross-contamination risk

  • Enhanced serum delivery capability to infuse active ingredients during treatment

 

Where dermabrasion required weeks of recovery, microneedling requires just 24-48 hours of mild redness. Where lasers posed risks for darker skin tones, microneedling is safe and effective for all skin types and colors. Where early rollers provided modest results, today's professional treatments deliver dramatic improvement in texture, tone, and scarring.

 

The science is clear: studies show microneedling can increase collagen production by up to 400% and significantly improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and overall skin quality—with a fraction of the risk and downtime of older technologies.

DISCLAIMERS

Results may vary based on individual skin type, condition, and treatment plan. A consultation is recommended to determine if microneedling is appropriate for your specific concerns.

Microneedling is not recommended for clients with active acne, rosacea flares, eczema, psoriasis, or any active skin infection. Those with a history of cold sores should take antiviral medication prior to treatment. Not recommended during pregnancy or nursing.

Clients who have used isotretinoin (Accutane) within the past 6 months, have bleeding disorders, or are on blood-thinning medications should consult with their physician before treatment.

Multiple sessions are typically required for optimal results, particularly for acne scarring and deep texture concerns. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan based on your individual goals.

Post-treatment sun protection is essential. Failure to protect treated skin from UV exposure may result in hyperpigmentation.
