Micro Needling/ Dry Tattooing
Micro needling/ dry tattooing is a gentle treatment that uses small medical grade needles to penetrate the skin, causing the skin to begin regenerating and repairing itself by producing more collagen and elastin. It is widely recognized as an extremely effective solution for targeting a number of skin conditions.
With any scar treatment, time & patience is key!!! Depending on how fast your body heals it may 2-4 months between treatments. Avoiding the sun is critical while microneedling treatments. Possible skin discoloration and skin damage can occur if exposed to the sun while healing.
As the treatment is gentle and non-invasive, dry tattooing is suitable for most skin types and results in just a small amount of tenderness and redness which disappears within 1-2 hours. Lingering redness can last from 1-2 months depending on your skin type & medical history. Some clients see improvements after one treatment, however for maximum results we recommend a course of 2-4 treatments.

Microneedling $275 per hourExpectations:
· Having more than one treatment is very common and recommended. Microneedling is not a quick fix. Your skin will begin to improve as the body repairs itself and grows new tissue — this takes time.
· Even though microneedling is not designed to dramatically alter your skin right away, some patients are able to see results such as a reduction of UV damage and dark spots, as well as stretch marks becoming less noticeable after only one treatment.
· Right after treatment you can expect your skin to feel tight, more sensitive, and will have some redness and inflammation. These symptoms should subside by the end of the day if not a few hours after treatment. This downtime after this treatment is very minimal, but also different for everyone.
· The results of microneedling have excellent longevity because when the body produces new collagen, it stays in the skin for a few years.
Please schedule a consultation to see if your scar is suitable for microneedling.
** Microneedling may not be suitable for some skin/ scar conditions. If you have concerns, please speak to your doctor prior to your consultation.**
