Microneedling
Collagen induction therapy
How it works
The Holy Grail
Skincare Treatment
The purpose of microneedling is to create tiny micro-injuries that stimulate a wound-healing response from your body. When this happens, your body creates more collagen & elastin resulting in tighter and firmer skin, decreased hyperpigmentation, improved acne scars, and improved texture and tone.
We specialize in microneedling and have several options to choose from based on your skin type and concerns, please read the descriptions to find out which one is best for you!

Package Pricing: $1535.00 x3 sessions (Regularly $1685, savings of $150)
Choose this option if you have acne scarring, deep textural concerns, moderate-deep wrinkles, hyperpigmentation or other skin conditions.
This option uses platelet-rich plasma instead of hyaluronic acid, which is derived from a sample of your blood! PRP is rich in growth factors and proteins that aid in tissue repair and regeneration, so you will have accelerated healing and collagen production compared to classic microneedling.
A great option for someone who leads a more holistic lifestyle due to its natural origin. PRP microneedling tends to yield longer-lasting results compared to classic microneedling, making it an attractive option for those seeking enduring skincare benefits.
Since PRP is derived from your own blood sample, the amount of growth factors and proteins depends on many factors such as lifestyle, diet, and age. If you eat a balanced diet, rich in vegetables and protein, work out on a regular basis, and are younger, the better PRP we will be able to harvest. That’s totally OK if you dont, in this case, you should opt for Exosomes.

Package Pricing: $2000.00 x 3 (Regularly $2360, savings of $360)
Choose this option if you love the newest technology, want the maximum amount of collagen and elastin production, want less downtime than classic microneedling, or you’ve got moderate-severe skincare concerns. This option is also great for someone who is not a good candidate for PRP microneedling.
Exosomes deliver potent growth factors by signalling molecules to boost skin repair and regeneration. This leads to a multitude of benefits for the skin, including improved texture, increased elasticity, and enhanced hydration. Exosomes also help reduce inflammation, promote wound healing, and diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Finish your treatment with LED light therapy, which enhances cellular activity, increases collagen production, and calms inflammation. This treatment yields a healthy, glowing complexion.
Exosomes, are extracellular vesicles taken from stem cells and contain a rich payload of growth factors, cytokines, and proteins that can profoundly stimulate cellular rejuvenation and repair.

Your microneedling treatment will begin with an application of prescription-strength topical numbing for 15-20 minutes. After, we will cleanse using our gentle, medical-grade cleanser, followed by the antimicrobial Hale Derma Spray.
Depending on your choice of treatment, we’ll then begin the microneedling treatment with either Hyaluronic acid, PRP, or Exosomes. We pass over the same area three times in different directions. Typically clients rate the treatment a 3/10 on the pain scale. It's totally tolerable!
You'll be booked with us for an hour but the actual microneedling portion only takes about 15 minutes to complete the whole face!
Then depending on your treatment choice we make finish with a cooling mask or LED therapy to help reduce redness and soothe the skin.

After you finish your series of sessions, you don't have to repeat the series again. You'll just need one maintence session every 6-9 months to keep up with the collagen stimulation!

Yes, we recommended the boosted microneedling with platelet-rich plasma. You may also want to consider a subcision treatment that goes deep into the skin to break up tethered scarring reducing the pulling down in the middle of your scars.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) microneedling, also known as the "vampire facial," is a cosmetic procedure that combines the benefits of microneedling with the regenerative properties of PRP taken from your blood. PRP is known for its ultra healing properties and improves the skin's structural integrity, reduces inflammation and redness of scars, and helps replace damaged cells with healthy new cells.

Exosomes are tiny, naturally occurring vesicles released by cells that play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication. They are derived from mesenchymal stem cells (human fat cells). Don't worry these cells are not able to carry diseases!
Exosomes are packed with beneficial molecules such as proteins, lipids, and genetic material. These molecules can influence various cellular processes like the transfer of genetic information and proteins from one cell to another helps to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote overall cellular health. So basically, it tells a mature cell to age like a younger cell would. How cool!
When applied to the skin, exosomes promote collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. The science behind exosome therapy lies in their potent growth factors and signaling molecules, which stimulate the skin's natural healing processes. This treatment is minimally invasive, delivering impressive results with little to no downtime, making it an excellent option for those seeking a youthful and radiant complexion.

This is the perfect combination to use post-microneedling with exosomes! LED therapy stimulates cellular activity, promoting faster healing of the micro-injuries created during microneedling. LED can accelerate the skin's natural repair process, reducing downtime and minimizing post-treatment redness and swelling.
LED light therapy is also known for boosting the collagen synthesis post-microneedling creating greater and more longterm results!
