Microneedle Classic
$ 175.00
$175/treatment, or a package of 3 treatments - $450
Classic microneedling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses ultra-fine, medical-grade sterile needles to create thousands of controlled microscopic punctures in the top layer of the skin.
How Classic Microneedling Works
Controlled Micro-Injuries: A motor-driven pen cartridge that glides across the skin, puncturing the epidermis into the papillary dermis ( depths ranging from 0.5 mm to 2.5 mm).
Wound Healing Cascade: The micro-channels trigger the body's natural wound repair response without damaging the outer epidermal barrier:
Inflammation Phase: Platelets release growth factors to jumpstart cellular repair.
Proliferation Phase: Dermal fibroblasts synthesize new Type III collagen, elastin, and extracellular matrix.
Remodeling Phase: Fresh collagen matures into structured Type I collagen, thickening and firming the dermal layer.
Transdermal Absorption: Opens temporary micro-channels allowing topical serums (such as hyaluronic acid, exosomes, or growth factors) to penetrate directly into the deeper dermal layers.
Treatment Profile
| Feature | Details |
| Primary Goals | Smooth atrophic acne scars, reduce fine lines, refine texture, and firm laxity |
| Downtime | 24 to 48 hours of mild to moderate erythema (looks and feels like a sunburn) |
| Sensation | Prickling or vibrating sensation; topical numbing cream applied prior to minimize discomfort |
| Recommended Protocol | Series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart |
| Ideal Candidates | Fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, stretch marks, and uneven skin texture |
Elite MDerma Microneedling by DermaPen
$ 300.00
MDerma™ (by Dermapen®) is a professional-grade, motorized microneedling device designed for Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT). It utilizes automated vertical stamping technology to create thousands of controlled micro-punctures in the skin, triggering the body's natural wound-healing cascade to stimulate collagen and elastin production.
Key Technical Specifications & Features
Corded Power System: Designed as a corded device to maintain consistent needle motor torque and oscillation speed from start to finish without battery decay.
12-Pin Sterile Cartridges: Uses disposable, single-use needle cartridges equipped with safety membranes to prevent fluid backflow and cross-contamination.
Adjustable Depth & Speed: Allows practitioners to fine-tune penetration depths (typically ranging from 0.25 mm to 2.5 mm) depending on whether they are treating delicate under-eye skin or dense acne scars.
Procedure & Recovery
Strength: This is our most intensive microneedling option. The penetrates deeper than the classic microneedle.
Comfort: Topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to minimize pain.
Downtime: Skin will feel warm, tight, and look sunburned for 1–2 days.
Results: Full collagen improvements emerge over several weeks to months; multiple sessions are recommended for optimal outcomes.
Microneedling with Radio Frequency
$ 300.00
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines traditional mechanical microneedling with thermal radiofrequency energy, delivering heat directly into the deep dermis to stimulate collagen contraction and tissue remodeling.
Dual-Mechanism Action
Targeted Mechanical Micro-Injuries: Micro-needles penetrate the epidermis to puncture the dermis, creating controlled physical channels that trigger the body's natural wound-healing process.
Deep Thermal Coagulation: Once the needles reach their target depth (typically 0.5 mm to 4.0 mm), radiofrequency energy emits from the needle tips. This heats dermal tissue to approximately $60^\circ\text{C}$–$70^\circ\text{C}$, causing immediate collagen fiber contraction and signaling long-term neocollagenesis.
Epidermal Protection: Because the energy bypasses the outermost skin layer (especially when using insulated needles), thermal damage to the surface skin is minimized, making it safe for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick types IV–VI) that are prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from surface lasers.
RF Microneedling vs. Classic Microneedling
| Feature | Classic Microneedling | RF Microneedling |
| Primary Mechanism | Mechanical puncture only | Mechanical puncture + thermal heat energy |
| Depth of Impact | Epidermis to upper dermis | Penetrates deep dermis / subdermal tissue |
| Primary Indication | Surface texture, fine lines, mild scarring | Deep structural laxity, jowls, neck tightening, deep acne scars |
