Microneedling
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is the process of using small, sterile needles to create intentional trauma to the surface of the skin. This “trauma” triggers a wound-healing response, which in-turn produces extra collagen and elastin.
What are the benefits?
Skin tightening
Improved texture
Reduced pore size
Fewer fine lines and wrinkles
Improved skin tone
Reduced sun damage
Improved scarring
What’s the recovery like?
Microneedling is minimally invasive and only treats the surface of the skin. This treatment may cause redness that persists anywhere from 1-48 hours. In rare cases, some people experience mild swelling or bruising. You may be asked to use gentle skincare products following your procedure. Your practitioner will provide any necessary aftercare.

Radio Frequency Microneedling
RF Microneedling provides both epidermal resurfacing and deep dermal remodeling. This procedure combines the benefits of Microneedling with Radio Frequency therapies. The needles treat the surface of the skin, while the Radio Frequency penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin for a more advanced treatment. While RF Microneedling is perfect for skin tightening, it’s also often used to treat scarring, stretch marks, cellulite, redness, pigmentation, and can even aid in hair restoration on the scalp.
Traditional Microneedling
Traditional Microneedling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy) is a minimally invasive treatment that can dramatically improve the skin with little pain and no downtime. This treatment mainly focuses on the surface of the skin, but still has incredible benefits and results, especially when paired with Growth Factors, Exosomes, or PRF. Traditional microneedling is perfect for treating superficial fine lines and wrinkles, large pore size, uneven skin tone or texture, sun damage, post-inflammatory erythema, and giving you an overall beautiful glow.
Adding PRF or PDGF to your treatment
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a second-generation platelet concentrate that contains a high concentration of growth factors and fibrin, which acts as a scaffold for wound healing and tissue regeneration, while growth factors are signaling proteins that stimulate cell growth, differentiation, and tissue repair. For PRF, we need to draw your blood and then spin it in a centrifuge to separate the fibrin. Learn more here.
PDGF (Platelet Derived Growth Factors) are created using recombinant technology, which produces a pure and sterile pharmaceutical product. Producing PDGF in this manner results in the concentration of growth factors always staying consistent more concentrated than PRF. The Growth Factors we use have 1,000-300,000x the number of growth factors that typical PRF contains. Another positive: you don’t need your blood drawn for this procedure.
