Now offering Microneedling!

Get to know the benefits and if it’s right for you.

Microneedling, or sometimes called Collagen Induction Therapy, is a safe and natural way to regenerate and reinvigorate your skin.  It does so by creating thousands of tiny micro-punctures in the top layer of your skin to stimulate the body’s own healing process and increase collagen and elastin levels in the skin. It is the perfect mix of natural beautification for those who love both Acupuncture and skin care!

Like Acupuncture, it is minimally invasive.  And it can offer big results such as smoother, brighter, firmer skin.  It is also great at helping reduce the appearance of acne scarring, hyperpigmentation spots, fine lines, and wrinkles.  

In the above photo, you can see what two treatments of Microneedling can offer the skin, specifically noticing the brighter tone, the overall firmer skin, the lift in the skin around the mouth, cheekbone, and the eyes, the reduction of lines around the mouth, nose, and eyes.  Also around the chin, there is some reduction in acne scarring that will only continue more with the next Microneedling treatment!   Here, I would recommend to the patient to get 1-2 more treatments to help with the acne scars.  Overall, the patient has been really happy with the results, and she noted how much she notices the increased brightness and color to her face immediately after each session.  

Also like Acupuncture, Microneedling works best in a sequence rather than as a one off treatment.  Sure one can be really helpful but it’s unlikely to get to the root.It is recommended that people who have never had Microneedling before to start with a 3 sessions spaced out every 4-6 weeks.
