 MICRONEEDLING

Microneedling (collagen induction therapy) is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure using thin needles over the surface of the skin to stimulate your body’s own healing cascade, naturally producing collagen and elastin.

  • SMOOTH FINE LINES & WRINKLES

  • TIGHTEN SKIN

  • PROMOTE NATURAL GLOW

  • REDUCE ACNE SCARRING

  • STIMULATE HAIR GROWTH

No peeling or lengthy recovery time. Your skin will be red and may feel warm for about 24 hours after the procedure. You will need to take some precautions regarding sun exposure and heavy exercise/sweating immediately after. But after that initial 24 hour period your skin will essentially be back to normal. You’ll start to see the effects of the natural collagen formation after a few weeks, and while the results are subtle at first, can be quite strong after a complete 4-6 month package. Results last 3-5 years, and even longer with maintenance treatments a few times a year.


For cosmetic work a recommended treatment period is once a month for 4-6 months. It is forbidden to Microneedle more often than this on the face, but to speed up the effects you can opt to Nanoneedle in between Microneedling treatments as often as weekly. This allows us to “push” hyuralonic acid and plant extracts known to generate cell turnover into the skin while fresh, as Microneedling dramatically increases the skin’s absorption rate.

Each 60-minute cosmetic Microneedling treatment includes:

  • 15-minute red light therapy

  • microneedling on face and neck using a hyuralonic acid lubrication

  • nanoneedling on lips and under eyes

  • cold organic aloe vera mask to reduce redness

  • take home after care pack including an aloe vera mask and hyuralonic acid serum


For hair growth the recommended frequency is once every two weeks for 4 months (8 treatments total).

Each 60-minute Microneedling for hair growth treatment includes:

  • 20-minute constitutional acupuncture

  • scalp gua sha massage tutorial with take home tool kit (first treatment in series only)

  • microneedling on scalp

  • 15-minute red light therapy to sooth the skin

  • take home topical of castor oil infused with Chinese herbs known for centuries to stimulate hair growth
