Microneedling
What it treats: Fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation
Microneedling, also called “collagen induction therapy,” naturally stimulates your body’s collagen production process. It is designed to gradually, over the course of several treatments, improve skin firmness and texture. Microneedling is also able to improve the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks, and to diminish the appearance of hyperpigmentation.
We offer both traditional microneedling with the Eclipse Micropen Elite and radiofrequency (RF)-assisted microneedling with Virtue RF, so your treatment will be completely customized based on your treatment timeline and goals for your skin.
Customized Facials – $99
What it treats: Premature aging, environmental damage, acne, dull complexion
Facials can address a wide variety of needs ranging from premature aging and environmental damage to acne flare-ups or a dull and patchy complexion. After completing a skin assessment, we will determine the best facial for your skin’s unique needs. Our tailored treatments typically include deep cleansing, enzyme exfoliation, extractions, a mask, and a face & décolleté massage.
