ABOUT MICRONEEDLING

Microneedling is a non-surgical procedure that uses tiny needles to create micro-channels in the skin. This process naturally stimulates collagen and elastin, helping to smooth fine lines, reduce scars, and reveal a firmer, more radiant complexion.

wHAT IT IS

During your complimentary consultation, our nurse will evaluate your skin condition and concerns to determine if microneedling is right for you. A specialized device is then gently pressed over the targeted area, creating micro-channels in the skin. As your body repairs these channels, collagen and elastin production increases, leading to smoother texture and a more rejuvenated look.

HOW IT WORKS

WHAT TO EXPECT

Depending on your selected treatment area(s), microneedling sessions can last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour (which your nurse will specify prior to booking). You may experience mild redness or swelling immediately after treatment, but most clients can resume normal activities within a day. Over the next few weeks, you’ll see continued improvements in skin firmness and tone as collagen production continues.

FAQs

  • • Please arrive with clean, makeup-free, skin so that we may complete proper assessment & determine where to make injections.

    • Avoid NSAIDS (i.e. Ibuprofen®, Advil®, Motrin®, Aleve®, Celebrex®), Fish oil, Gingko Biloba, St. John’s Wort and high doses of Vitamin E for one week prior to injection.

  • Dermal fillers contain lidocaine, a common anesthetic, which helps patients tolerate the minor pinching feeling associated with injections. Topical numbing agents can be utilized to lesson discomfort.

  • One of the things that makes dermal fillers so great is there's little downtime. Immediately after the treatment, there may be redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness and / or itching at or near the injection site. These symptoms are normal and should resolve within a few days. But for this reason we do not recommend scheduling your appointment right before a big event.

  • Results can be seen immediately after treatment and will get better over the course of 2-3 weeks as the filler integrates with your own tissue. Filler can last anywhere from 6-24 months depending on the filler used and the injection area.

  • We carry a range of dermal fillers. Our nurse injector will discuss best options to meet your goals during your consultation.

  • • No makeup immediately following treatment.
