Microneedling
or Percutaneous Collagen Induction

Microneedling is a minimally-invasive technique using tiny needles to help stimulate collagen production under the skin without damaging the upper layer of the skin. This technique is used to tighten, lift, and rejuvenate the skin.  The depth of the microneedles is adjusted to be personalized based on your skin thickness and the different areas of your body.

Microneedling can be used help improve age-related skin conditions, such as wrinkles and skin laxity, as well as acne scars.  It is also an effective mode of delivery for skin serums since micro-channels into the skin layers are created by the microneedles.  Therefore, serums can be absorbed more deeply than if the serums were applied on top of the skin.  We carry different types of skin serums from Korea for different skin conditions, including skin "botox" for "glassy skin".

Because this procedure can be uncomfortable, we make it a priority to apply topical anesthetic cream to maximize your comfort during the microneedling session.
