Rejuvenate your skin.
Make it Glow!
Microneedling.
Make Your Skin Glow.
Collagen is a protein that provides flexibility and strength to our skin tissue. As time passes, collagen production in our skin slows down. When it is time to take a bigger step to rejuvenate your skin, Microneedling may be the right treatment option. This popular cosmetic procedure helps reduce signs of aging and heal scars.
As collagen production increases, your skin regains its natural elasticity, smoothness, firmness, and glow.

Microneedling.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that safely and effectively addresses a multitude of skin concerns and helps reduce signs of aging and heal scars. The treatment involves the use of tiny needles that produce micro-injuries to the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural collagen production.
Microneedling with PRP.
The effects of traditional Microneedling are further enhanced by injecting PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) into the treated tissue. It allows deeper penetration of nutrients and speeds up the healing process by minimizing the duration of post-treatment redness and swelling.
The PRP is obtained by drawing a small amount of your own blood, from which the plasma is separated.
While PRP is not 'FDA*-approved', it can be legally offered in the clinic 'off-label'.
(*Certain blood products including PRP are exempt from FDA's traditional regulatory pathway that includes animal studies and clinical trials. Our PRP device has FDA 510(k) clearance.)
STEMFACIAL® with Microneedling.
STEMFACIAL® is the industry’s most effective stem cell cytokine growth factor skin rejuvenation system.
STEMFACIAL® MATRIX SOLUTION used in combination with the microneedling device allows you to absorb a higher concentration of key active ingredients such as Stem Cell Cytokines, Growth Factors, Peptides, Antioxidants, Anti-Inflammatories, Retinol (Vitamin A), Vitamins: B5, C, and E. These ingredients accelerate the natural wound-healing response, providing more stimulation of growth factors offering a faster healing response and reduced downtime.
Expectations.
Noticeable improvement after the first treatment.
You can expect to achieve your ideal aesthetic goal within 4-6 months of your first treatment. This accounts for the three treatments you will need, the waiting period between treatments and how long it takes for the final results to appear after the final treatment.
Side Effects and Recovery.
Minor bruising and inflammation, including swelling and redness, are the most common side effects. They typically appear immediately after the procedure and clear within 4-6 days.
Number of Treatments.
Depends on the current condition of your skin and the condition you are trying to treat. It can take up to 3 treatments for collagen induction to be most effective.
To treat wrinkles and other signs of aging, you should only need 1-2 treatments per year to maintain your youthful appearance.
For moderate acne scars, you will probably need between 3-4 treatments.
Risks.
Unlike many laser treatments for skin rejuvenation, Microneedling is safe for all skin types and tones because the treatment does not damage the epidermis.
Frequency of Treatments.
4-6 weeks between treatments.
Once you’ve achieved your aesthetic goal you may find that you only need one treatment per year.
Contraindications.
Isotretinoin (Accutane) acne treatment in the past three months
