Let’s talk about one of our all-time fav multi-tasking skin care treatments. Microneedling!
Microneedling is a service during which thousands of microscopic injuries are purposefully inflicted to the skin in order to promote what’s called the healing cascade. This stimulates skin cell regeneration, boosts collagen and elastin production, and remodels the tissue. We apply a high quality numbing cream prior to treatment, making it comfortable and painless. The pen itself sounds a bit like a tattoo gun, and has 14 medical grade microscopic needles.
5 BENEFITS OF MICRONEEDLING
Supports overall skin health and elasticity.
Tackles both superficial and non-superficial scarring.
Breaks up superficial pigment irregularities to promote more even tone.
FDA approved and safe to use on delicate areas like the under eyes, neck, and décolletage.
Improves texture, smooths fine lines, and wrinkles—aka great anti-aging treatment.
Downtime:
Treatment Day:
You will leave looking red + tight like you spent the day on the beach + forgot your spf!
Day 1 Post-Treatment:
Redness will subside and give way to a tender and more pink undertone. You may feel tight and dry. Apply the post-care cream to the worst areas that are bothersome and/or uncomfortable!
Day 3-5 Post-Treatment:
Make-up may be applied to areas that are still pink, and you may experience flaking and dryness. Around this time you’re going to be itching to exfoliate!
Day 7 Post-Treatment:
After redness and any sensitivity has subsided, you may exfoliate and reveal skin that’s brighter, healthier, and smooth. Watch the results continue as the weeks pass!
Note: We recommend a series of 4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for best results.
Keep in mind while the results of microneedling can be long term and never truly go away, we are always combatting the natural aging process!
