Microneedling
CONCERNED ABOUT SCARS?
Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, this is a multi-purpose procedure where small needles puncture your skin with the purpose of stimulating collagen production for a smoother, firmer, and toned skin. Perfect to get rid of scars, large pores, acne scars, stretch marks, and general wounds. Best results after 3 or more sessions.
PREPARE FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT
Discontinue the use of Retin A, Retinols, Vitamin A creams, and other topical medications for 3-5 days before your microneedling treatment.
