Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment that promotes the natural production of collagen and elastin, which are responsible for skin structure and elasticity. As we age, these fibers break down and cause wrinkles.

The Derminator 2 MicroPen uses extremely fine needles to penetrate the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin. With minimal pain and downtime, a series of 4-6 treatments can produce results that lasts several months to years. Microneedling is an alternative or can compliment to neurotoxin injections to address skin conditions such as: fine lines, acne scars, skin laxity, enlarged pores, crows feet, stretch marks, and hair restoration.

Cost of one full face, neck and chest treatment is $200 and includes infrared light therapy, e-stim, and skin booster infusion.
