What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin’s surface. This triggers your body’s natural healing response, stimulating fresh collagen and elastin production. Over time, this process improves skin texture, tone, and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven pigmentation. It’s a trusted, science-backed approach to skin rejuvenation that works with your body, not against it, delivering meaningful results without dramatic downtime.
Our Microneedling Options
SkinPen® Precision Microneedling
The SkinPen® is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, trusted for its safety and proven results. This treatment creates tiny, controlled micro-channels in your skin, triggering your body’s natural healing process. Over the following weeks, your skin produces fresh collagen and elastin, resulting in a smoother texture, reduced scarring, and improved overall clarity. Ideal for fine lines, acne scars, and uneven skin tone with minimal downtime.
Morpheus8 RF Microneedling
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to reach deeper layers of skin and tissue. This dual approach not only stimulates collagen production but also remodels underlying fat and tightens skin from within. It’s an excellent choice for addressing skin laxity, deeper wrinkles, and textural concerns on the face and body. Results continue to improve over several months as your skin rebuilds.
Enhance Your Results: Add-Ons
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
Your own blood is drawn and processed to concentrate growth factors, then applied during treatment to accelerate healing and boost collagen production.
PRF "Liquid Gold" (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)
A next-generation option that releases growth factors slowly over time, providing longer-lasting rejuvenation and enhanced skin quality.
PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor)
Targets cellular regeneration at a deeper level, supporting tissue repair and promoting healthier, more resilient skin.
