Microneedling with Natural Growth Factors
Microneedling with Natural Growth Factors involves the same basic procedure but adds an extra layer of rejuvenation with Natural Growth factore injections. Natural Growth Factors is a concentrated serum rich in growth factors and cytokines, which, when injected into the target area, nourishes the cells and promotes restoration and growth.
Microneedling with Liquid Gold
Unlike traditional neurotoxin injections, Liquid Gold focuses on the skin’s surface. A mixture of neurotoxin and dermal filler in saline is applied topically during the Microneedling process. This not only improves fine lines and wrinkles but also manages pores and oil production. The added filler introduces Hyaluronic acid, making your skin look smooth, clear, and poreless.
Microneedling with PDO AfterGlo
Microneedling with PDO AfterGlo is an innovative treatment that combines the collagen-stimulating benefits of traditional microneedling with the rejuvenating effects of Polydioxanone (PDO) threads. This unique combination enhances skin texture and tone and provides a subtle lift, giving your skin a radiant “afterglow.” This treatment offers a multi-dimensional approach to skin rejuvenation, ideal for those looking to address signs of aging or skin laxity.
