This is because of MicroPulse-1064 technology, which essentially eliminates treatment pain while minimizing the chances of hyper- and/ or hypo- pigmentation.

Fillers, such as Restylane®, are injected into the skin to plump and smooth wrinkles. The goal of the treatment is to replace lost volume and fullness. Although not all dermal fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid, all Restylane® treatments include this natural component.

Every situation is unique. One person may require three treatments while another only requires one. It’s critical to set up a virtual or in-person consultation to determine the most effective treatment strategy for your specific requirements and needs.

Microneedling is a low-risk treatment that uses your very own PRP. In the first step, we will apply numbing cream to the selected area of treatment. We then draw your blood and place it in a centrifuge to separate your PRP and growth factors from the inflammatory red cells. The PRP is then microneedled into your skin with a device to deliver growth factors deep into the skin, where they will regenerate collagen and help to start reversing the aging process. These are best done in a series of 3, spaced 30-45 days apart.

Stimulating cell turnover, improving skin tone, reducing pore size, wrinkles and fine lines are some of the main benefits. This treatment is great for individuals with rosacea, visible acne scars, and sun damage.

Microneedling with PRP is a facial treatment that can benefit all skin types, unlike laser treatments.

Results are seen in as little as three days and continue to improve for 90 days after treatment.
