COMMON QUESTIONS

How does Microneedling work?

• Microneedling (an oscillating needled devise) creates micro-channels in the skin. When those channels are created, the skin's own repair response is to start increasing blood flow and to produce collagen and elastin to heal. This, in turn, makes your skin tighter and smoother skin.
• Unlike microdermabrasion, which removes layers of skin, micro needling creates channels in the skin for products to be absorbed and collagen/elastin to be produced allowing for skin rejuvenation.

Recommended Frequency of Treatments:
Microneedling is recommended once per month. To increase results Nanoneedling may be used once per week in between your microneedling sessions.  The number of treatments required is dependent on many factors such as age, lifestyle and condition being treated.

What is Facial Acupuncture and what are the effects?

Tiny acupuncture needles are inserted gently into facial acupuncture points and wrinkles. The insertion causes a microtrauma that causes the body to respond with blood flow and collagen & elastin production.

• Blood flow and lymphatic circulation
• Increased Firmness
• Increased Elasticity
• Decreased Fine Lines
• Healthier Complexion
• Brighter, Smoother Complexion

Recommended Frequency of Treatments:
Ideally for facial acupuncture 1-2 times per week x 10-12 treatments to receive full benefit then maintenance treatment once every 1-3 months
