Microneedling

Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment used to stimulate collagen production. It improves skin tone and texture, addresses fine lines and wrinkles, decreases acne scars, and improves laxity. This treatment creates micro-injuries to the skin to stimulate the natural healing process of your body to produce new cells and collagen. Microneedling (Scar Revision) uses microneedling devices (aka pens) to mechanically break fibrils or elastin collagen that has contracted and has formed depression scars or static rhytids. Microneedling is indicated for patient conditions such as acne scars, cellulite (Grade III), static rhytids, and overall facial and body part skin rejuvenation. Typical results per treatment are between 40-50% correction of the original indication. Multiple treatments are necessary to eliminate the various uses and are not guaranteed.

The Treatment

SkinPen stimulates the skin’s remodeling process by creating thousands of tiny micro-injuries in the dermis, generating new collagen without causing scar tissue formation. Procedures take only 30 minutes, depending on the size treated. Microneedling sessions usually require little to no downtime for patients. 

Hair Restoration

Hair Restoration uses the growth factors found within your blood cells and exosomes to stimulate new hair growth in sparse or thinning areas of the scalp. We’ll draw a small amount of blood from your arm inserted within vials. The blood is spun in a centrifuge, dividing the growth factors from the red blood cells. As the solution is injected into the scalp, the concentration of growth factors encourages new hair production.
