Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy)
What It Is
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a gentle, non-surgical procedure that stimulates your skin’s natural renewal process. Using an FDA-approved pen with ultra-fine needles, microscopic channels are created in the skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin production—enhancing texture, tone, and overall radiance.
Why It Works
- Collagen: Adds firmness and plumpness
- Elastin: Improves elasticity and smooths pigmentation
- Promotes natural healing for more youthful-looking skin
Treatment Time
- Typically completed in ~30 minutes
- Smaller areas (e.g., hands): shorter sessions
- Larger areas (e.g., full face): may require a few passes
When Results Appear
- Subtle changes may be felt immediately
- Significant improvements usually appear within 4–6 weeks
- For best results, most clients complete 3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart
Who Should Book This
A great option if you:
- Are not pregnant, nursing, or recently using Accutane
- Have no open wounds, active infections, or history of keloids
- Want to enhance skin without risk of discoloration
- Need a treatment safe for sensitive areas and all skin tones
Treatable Concerns
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged pores
- Acne scars and uneven texture
- Mild hyperpigmentation
- Loss of firmness
What to Expect During Treatment
- Your skin is cleansed and numbed
- A precision microneedling pen creates controlled micro-injuries
- These micro-wounds stimulate healing and collagen formation
Aftercare & Downtime
- No downtime—you can resume daily life immediately
- Mild redness or flushing may appear for 1–2 days
- Use a gentle cleanser and hydrating products (like hyaluronic acid) for 72 hours
- Apply SPF 35+ every 4–6 hours for 3 days; avoid peak sun (10 AM–2 PM)
- Avoid acid-based products (like AHAs or retinoids) for at least 2–3 days
- Light makeup is okay after 24 hours—mineral-based preferred
Why You Shouldn’t DIY
Over-the-counter microneedling devices can pose high infection risks without sterilization or professional protocols. At-home use lacks precision and anesthetic options, making professional treatment significantly safer and more effective.
Treatment Plan
- For optimal results, treatments are spaced 4–6 weeks apart
- Most clients complete their goals in 3–6 months of consistent sessions
