Microneedling
(Collagen Induction Therapy)
Microneedling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy) is a safe, gentle and highly effective way to stimulate your skin's natural ability to repair itself and maximizes collagen and elastin production. It addresses skin concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, scars, stretch marks and requires no down time.
Using a Microneedling pen and Clean products is a safe way to encourage your own skin to repair and improve itself, without the use of harsh chemicals.
What Happens During a Treatment?
After a cleanse and hot towel, a numbing cream is applied, and body points placed. (Some people choose not to use the numbing cream, as the procedure is quite comfortable.) The cream is then removed along with the body acupuncture needles, and the microneedling is done using Hyaluronic acid and Collagen Boosting serum. Nano needling (surface treatment) is done around the eyes and lips, and a cooling cucumber mask next to sooth the skin. After LED Rainbow Light therapy, a Stem Cell serum is applied, along with a nourishing oil to protect the skin.

What To Expect After Each Session
On the day of the treatment, the skin usually turns red. As use of make-up and products such as retinol are not recommended the same day, a sample of the Collagen Boosting serum is sent home for your use. The next day, the skin has a glow, and you are able to resume your everyday activity, products and make-up at the end of the that day.
