Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment where we intentionally create tiny punctures in the top layer of skin using micro-fine needles. This treatment is known for boosting collagen production in the skin, which makes it beneficial for fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, skin tightening, and overall anti-aging.

After your appointment, your skin may appear red and feel warm, similar to a mild sunburn for 24–48 hours. After this, dryness or light flaking can occur as the skin renews. Most clients resume normal activities within 1–2 days and it is recommended not to sweat or wear makeup during this period. Results develop gradually over several weeks as collagen builds, with best results seen through a series

Day 1: Aftercare During the procedure and for the first 24 hours of the recovery process clients will experience redness as well as slight swelling of the skin. Following the Dermapen procedure (night or morning after), patients are safe to begin washing their face thoroughly using a mild, soap free, pH balanced cleanser and follow with non-active, non-occlusive and non-comedogenic serum and moisturizer for restoring moisture and skin comfort. Avoid makeup for the remainder of the first 24 hours following the procedure to avoid skin contamination and possible infections. Skin channels are still open and recovering throughout this time period and tools such as makeup brushes can contain bacteria and may cause unwanted skin reactions. Day 2: Aftercare On day 2, a red or pink hue of the skin is to be expected and swelling may be somewhat more noticeable. Resume use of sunscreen at this time. The skin will most likely feel slightly tightened, dry, or itchy- this is the perfect time to increase your serum use, giving your skin the nutrients and moisture it needs. Continue utilizing mild cleansers, hydrating serums, and moisturizing topicals.

Morpheus8 is microneedling with radio frequency with adjustable depth (up to 4 mm) fine surgical pins. At the end of these fine pins, radio frequency waves are emitted. What this means is that you get a double whammy when it comes to skin rejuvenation and tightening. The microneedles cause a controlled injury that results in formation of new collagen and elastin (the fibers responsible for skin tightening). In addition, the radio frequency wave also stimulate collagen and elastin formation. So, you have skin rejuvenation occurring from 2 different formats!! It is a great alternative to surgery if you are not ready to undergo the knife.
