Microneedling – MicroChannelling

This is a great medical service provided by an RN or other medical provider and is a non-surgical treatment for skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, plumping skin and scar revision. Without injecting any fillers or other products, microneedle therapy communicates with the body's system stimulating the collagen and elastin in the skin to regenerate, thus minimizing wrinkles and scarring and tightening the skin. It is an excellent way to plump lips and raise the cupid’s bow or minimize the wrinkles around the mouth brows or eyes. You can benefit from anti-aging by virtue of microneedling as it can treat brown aging spots, too!

In addition to the needling, we utilize the best therapeutic post-needling skin care available. Microneedling lasts longer than any injectable filler currently on the market. Healing time is a few days, and the healed results are visible in a few weeks, and they continue to improve for up to four months. We have offered microneedling since 2009 and have continued to watch this technique become more and more popular in the last few years (2014-current). Plan to schedule your services 2-8 weeks apart until you achieve optimal results. Your individualized treatment plan will vary based on the type of outcome we are trying to achieve. The types of scars vary as do wrinkles. Acne scars may be raised, or hills or valleys, and each will require the appropriate treatment time frame. The goal is to work with your keratinocyte cycle to achieve the appropriate collagen and elastin production. Annual maintenance recommended for wrinkle treatments. Schedule a consultation and we will build you a treatment plan. Aftercare products are retailed at a discount and are optional but strongly recommended.

We have two different types of microneedling/ microchannelling. One involves Procell stem cells and is pricier than traditional microneedling.

Priced per session or by package. Book online and we will discuss pricing for packages in office.

Frequently Asked Questions

Microneedling/Microchanneling

Does it hurt?

There is some discomfort during the treatment. There is no lingering discomfort, and we have a number of strategies we employ to minimize discomfort during treatment.

Can it cause scarring?

No. It can improve the appearance of scars.

What's in the Stem Cell Serum?

Hyaluronic acid and a combination of purified proteins designed to amplify rejuvenation. There are no human or animal cells, DNA, blood or other foreign substances. The product has been used safely and effectively for over a decade.

What will this improve the appearance of?

Fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, stretch marks, hair loss, and rosacea are all conditions that MicroChanneling can improve.

How long is the down time?

You can apply make-up, sunblock and other topical products after about 90 minutes.

How will my face look immediately following a treatment?

Anything from minor redness, to a deep red flush, which clears up in 4 to 72 hours, depending on how aggressive the treatment is.

How long before I can expect to see results?

You will typically notice an improvement in the quality and appearance of your skin within the first 24 hours. After 2-3 treatments a thicker more robust, collagen filled cellular matrix will produce more consistent and noticeable improvement. And 6 or more treatments may be recommended for scarring, laxity and wrinkles. For hair regrowth some reactivation typically appears within the first two weeks, with noticeable improvement after about 5 weeks.

Are there any contraindications?

Any condition that seriously impairs your immune system, active radiation or chemotherapy, pregnant or nursing, uncontrolled diabetes, allergy to stainless steel, chronic inflammatory skin disease, Accutane in the past 2 years, hemophilia or similar bleeding disorder.

Can I combine this with other treatments?

Dermaplane, Microdermabrasion or an enzyme peel may be performed immediately before MicroChanneling as long as the face is disinfected before MicroChanneling. Immediately following MicroChanneling, LED light therapy and oxygen may be applied.

Do I have to use the MicroChanneling solution/aftercare serums?

MicroChanneling stimulates the body to release peptides, cytokines and growth factors that induce collagen production. As you get older, the stem cells that produce these vital proteins lose efficacy and decline in population, so microchanneling alone becomes less and less effective. Because of premature aging the MicroChannel Delivery Serum, and the post care Cellular Renewal Serum and Healing Accelerator become more necessary to produce improvement. Use of the Livra products ensure the skin continuously receives potent, robust, pristine peptides, cytokines and growth factors even in between treatments. Think of diet and exercise — MicroChanneling without serums is like exercising without dieting. Results will be good with MicroChanneling only, great with serums.
