MICRONEEDLING

Gentle, Effective, Skin Rejuvenation with the AcuLift MicroPen

Microneedling is a non-invasive procedure that uses a needling pen with 16 (33 gauge) medical grade needles to produce micro injuries which promote the skin’s own healing mechanisms to stimulate new collagen and elastin fibres. This procedure improves texture, tone and reduces the appearance of scarring and fine lines. Microneedling is safe for all skin tones and is the perfect option for those looking to improve their skin by strengthening it, rather than stripping away precious layers as with other procedures.

This microneedling treatment is set apart from others in that LED light therapy and body points are included to ensure the most holistic approach to beauty is being attained.

 Visible results begin on the first day and continue for weeks afterward. As collagen levels continue to build up over a series of monthly sessions, your skin becomes more luminous and your complexion more even.

3-6 treatments 4-6 weeks apart are recommended, these can be worked in with an initial cosmeticfacial acupuncture cycle of 10 to achieve stunning results, please ask at your appointment.
