Collagen Induction Therapy/ Microneedling

Also known as Microneedling, CIT is an effective way to improve texture by inducing new collagen and elastin formation in the dermis.  Thousands of tiny skin punctures allow for deep penetration of growth factor serums and hyaluronic acid, a major component of the dermal extracellular matrix.  Safer and more effective than what can be accomplished with a rolling needle device, the MDPen Microneedle system has adjustable and consistent depth and the most powerful motor on the market.  The procedure is done in a sterile fashion to reduce the risk of infection and inflammation that will impede the formation of new collagen.  Microneedling sessions in a medical setting are far more effective than home needle rollers which are dull, not sterile, and give unpredictable skin puncture depth.

Time

Post-procedure serums available at a discount with all microneedling sessions

Microinfusion/Microtox

Microinfusion is a form of mesotherapy in which twenty 24-K gold microneedles create 600 micron deep microchannels in the skin.  Using a stamping motion, we can get effective penetration of a personalized elixir of skin-boosting vitamins and serums right into the epidermis.  The addition of neurotoxin (like Botox, hence the name "Microtox") helps shrinks pores, decrease sebum production, and allow for relaxation (without full paralysis) of superficial facial muscles.  We can even target those hard to treat areas, namely under the eyes on that delicate periorbital skin and around the lips.  Best of all: no pain and virtually no downtime! You'll be glowing as you walk out the door. 

​

Options: (both include cleansing, toning, prepping, and facial massage, followed by application of approved SPF)

*Gold Cocktail: Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, as indicated by your skin's needs

*Microtox: add in neurotoxin and/or HA filler

​

(P. S. Compared to Microneedling, a Microinfusion is faster and "easier"with less downtime, but will not target deeper lines and acne scars as effectively.)

Botox Cosmetic

Fine lines and wrinkles can be improved with careful injection of the botulinum a toxin which causes temporary paralysis of the injected facial muscles.  With some planning and consideration of the areas of maximal muscle contraction, we can reduce the appearance of wrinkles while allowing you to maintain your natural facial expressions and personality. 

Problem

Fine lines and wrinkles of the frontalis (forehead), the glabella (furrowed brows or the 11's), and the orbicularis oculi (the crow's feet).  Other "off-label" uses can be discussed. 

Time

15-30 minutes per session.  

More than one session may be required.

Typically, treatment will need to be repeated in 3-6 months
