Microneedling is done in a series it is NOT a one and done treatment. Results build from a series and continue to build for months after your series is complete.

Depending on your goals expect 3-12 sessions, With 5 being the sweet spot. We will go over your estimated sessions needed and consultation.

Microneedling is one of those treatments that helps with nearly every concern. Here are some concerns I specifically address with it…

Aging: Prevention, smoothing lines, tightening skin, firming skin.

Acne: All forms of acne to help clear it and prevent and treat scars.

PIE/PIH/Scars: Trauma to the skin results in pigment and scarring, which microneedling addresses through enhanced healing and collagen production.

Rosacea: Reinforces vascular pathways responsible for flushing and broken capillaries, normalizing their responses.

Melasma: Encourages the skin to release excess pigment without adding heat or excess inflammation that can trigger rebound melasma.
