Microneedling

Microneedling treatment creates micro injuries in the skin with our Cytopen, which uses needles to prick the skin which stimulates collagen and elastin to the micro injury site. This helps build and plump up the skin resulting in smoother, firmer and younger looking skin. A topical numbing cream will be applied to make the possible discomfort minimal. For optimal results 3 treatments are recommended.

Conditions Treated:

• Age Spots
• Wrinkles
• Scarring
• Hyperpigmentation, including melasma
• Stretch Marks
• Large visible pores
• Acne Scarring

Contraindications to Treatment:

• Pregnancy
• Accutane use for acne
• Facial Eczema
• Rosacea
• History of Poor wound healing
• Skin radiation in past 12 months

Potential Side Effects:

• Swelling & Redness are most common side effects and usually clear within 4-6 days.
• You will need to avoid sun exposure & harsh skin treatments during the healing process and ALWAYS use sunscreen.
• Scarring is a rare complication and if you have a history of herpes simplex or cold sores, it is possible that you may have an outbreak after the procedure.

Stem Facial Microneedling: StemFacial treatment consists of microneedling treatments, with the StemFacial Matrix Solution and the continuing care Advanced Cytokine Duo. The StemFacial products contain a Growth Factor Matrix that promotes the body’s own healing response, signals cells to regenerate, stimulates collagen production and significantly reduces redness and inflammation. After microneedling procedure, StemFacial Growth Factor Serum is applied and massaged into the skin. Next StemFacial Bio Activator is applied which helps propel the growth factors in the serum and creates a protective barrier for your skin.

Benefits:

• Improved Skin Texture
• Increased Collagen
• Reduced Wrinkle Appearance
• Increased Skin Plumpness
• Decreased appearance of all types of scars, especially acne
• Diminished pore size

Immortal Facial Microneedling: Our proprietary facial, designed and formulated in house that uses the Cytopen microneedling device that uses small needles to create micro injuries which helps stimulate new collagen production. Blood is drawn prior to microneedling treatment to separate the PRP from the blood. PRP, Platelet Rich Plasma, is a filtered part of your blood that contains the body’s own rich source of growth factors and proteins. The platelets in our body help blood clot and they are vital for healing wounds and injuries. This is used topically on your face and delivered into the micro injuries releasing these growth factors to help repair tissue and enhance healing. Vitamin C & Zinc are also added topically to the face after microneedling to increase healing and decrease the duration of redness and swelling seen after microneedling.

PRP is rich in a variety of growth factors that boost the skin, including:

• Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) regulates cell growth and stimulates fibroblast, a cell that expedites skin healing.
• Transforming Growth Factor (TGF) promotes the growth of new blood vessels.
• Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VGEF) is an important signaling protein involved in both blood cell growth and development
• Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF), promotes new connective tissues in the skin, as well as epithelialization in order to repair injured tissue.
• Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) encourages collagen growth and proteoglycan synthesis
• Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF) speeds up skin regeneration

Benefits:

• Speeds up healing process after treatments.
• Beneficial for all skin types.
• Overall skin rejuvenation: Improves aging skin, tone, texture, and complexion.
• Improves the appearance of acne scars, veins, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, fine lines & wrinkles.
• Minimally invasive treatment with little to no real downtime.

Microneedling with PRP Injection: We use our microneedling Cytopen and your own PRP to deliver a treatment that is beneficial for all skin types. After your blood is drawn and the PRP is seperated, it will be injected into your skin, especially in areas that have deeper wrinkles or acne scars. Microneedling paired with PRP injections is also used together for under eye area rejuvenation, which helps the under eye areas become tighter, fuller and revitalied.
