Microneedling
Microneedling packs a lot of skin care love into one treatment! Microneedling is also known as Fractional Collagen Induction Therapy, it creates micro-punctures to the surface of the skin, triggering the release of collagen and elastin and encouraging your skin to produce more collagen. We use the FDA approved Rejuvapen which is an amazing non-laser, non-surgical treatment that stimulates fresh new tissue/skin with little to no downtime! For best results we recommend a series of 3 treatments 4-6 weeks apart.
Microneedling benefits include improvement of:
skin texture and appearance
fine lines and wrinkles
scarring
hyperpigmentation
sun damage
Elevate Your Microneedling Experience!
Take your Microneedling session to the next level by adding a ZO® Serum Accelerator to your treatment! We love Microneedling for its collagen initiation benefits and adding an accelerator to your treatment will promote optimal treatment results.
ZO Firming Serum Accelerator®: Supports skin’s natural regeneration of collagen and elastin, strengthens key structural components of the skin, helps minimize inflammation and oxidative stress, replenishes hydration and supports healthy skin barrier.
ZO Brightalive Serum Accelerator®: Provides multi-modal brightening and blocks new pigment formation, gently removes dead skin cells to help with existing pigment, provides anti-inflammatory benefits to calm skin post-procedure, aids in hydrations and supports a healthy skin barrier.
ZO Rozatrol Serum Accelerator®: Minimizes inflammation and diminishes redness, promotes healthy microcirculation, prevents excess oil production and provides antimicrobial benefits, improves skin texture, protects nerve endings and cellular communication.
Microneedling with Topical PDGF: Microneedling paired with topical PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) amplifies your results. PDGF is a naturally occurring protein that plays a key role in cell growth, tissue repair, and angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation). Applied during microneedling, it penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin, accelerating healing, enhancing collagen remodeling, and improving overall skin tone and texture. This powerful combination promotes firmer, smoother, and healthier-looking skin with faster recovery times.

What to Expect During Treatment
The procedure is quick and relatively comfortable. A numbing agent is applied topically to the treatment area for about 30 minutes prior to the procedure. The process takes about 30-45 minutes, and results gradually improve as collagen production increases over the following months.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Anyone can be a good candidate for microneedling! It is good for all skin types. Microneedling can benefit you at any age to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture, fine lines and wrinkles. It is a good procedure for anyone who is wanting natural result with minimal downtime. Your provider will go through your medical history at your appointment to determine if you are a good candidate.
