Microneedling

Prevent and Treat the Signs of Aging Now!

As we age, the collagen and elastin fibers responsible for skin structure and elasticity break down causing wrinkles and sagging. With the use of the AcuLift Microneedle pen, we can naturally promote the production of these fibers.

The AcuLift Microneedle pen uses extremely fine, sterile needles that penetrate the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen and elastin production without permanent injury to the skin. It can also help to improve skin texture and color, reduce wrinkles, soften scars and encourage hair regrowth. It also helps improve the effectiveness of skin care products. In addition to microneedling, our treatments include body needles to support your body’s internal balance (thus encouraging your skin’s health from the inside out) and treatment with the Celluma LED light to reduce redness and discomfort following the procedure.

We recommend monthly microneedling treatments for 4-6 months to achieve maximum results, with follow ups every 3-6 months to maintain your results. Microneedling done on a regular basis is the key to optimal outcomes and maintenance of results. Cosmetic acupuncture is recommended between microneedling to help enhance results.

Results may be apparent after one treatment, and will improve over the course of your 4-6 monthly treatments. Your skin will continue to improve for months after your treatment and benefits are enhanced by recommended follow ups. Results can last up to 5 years.

Microneedling can improve:

  • Scarring from acne or other skin injury
  • Sun damage
  • Stretch marks
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sagging skin
  • Hyperpigmentation and other skin discoloration
  • Hair regrowth
  • Cosmetic concerns on other parts of the body (hands, neck, chest, etc)

Aftercare Microneedling

You’ll have about 24 hours of “down-time” after treatment, during which you should not induce sweating (via exercise, saunas, etc), receive direct sun-exposure, or apply any products but the provided aftercare on the treated areas of your skin.

  • Use the aftercare kit as specified in your post treatment handout for the week after treatment
  • Do not workout, use a sauna or intentionally cause a sweat on the day after your microneedling appointment
  • Do not apply makeup or use any soap on your face on the day of your microneedling appointment
  • Avoid direct sun exposure for 24 hours after microneedling. Use mineral sunblock in the days following.
  • You may see results in 1-4 weeks after treatment, depending on your individual constitution and skin healing
