Microneedling, also called percutaneous collagen induction therapy,is performed using a handheld, drum- or pen-shaped device, electrically powered,with tiny needles that make precise,microscopic punctures in the skin.These “micro-injuries” do not leave scars;they work by helping to stimulate the skin to repair itself naturally through a process called dermal remodeling.This process starts with inflammation,which stimulates the skin to produce new collagen (the elastic fibers that make skin tight

smooth, and youthful). Collagen levels in the skin decline as we age, and new collagen can be produced when the skin is in repair mode.

Three to five monthly or biweekly treatments are recommended to achieve desired results. Through a series of sessions, microneedling can increase elastic skin fibers. Microneedling also helps the epidermis (the outermost layer of skin), which naturally thins with age, become thicker and tauter.

Microneedling is used to treat a variety of skin conditions that cause depressions in the skin such as acne scarring, surgical scars, other scars, burns, enlarged pores, wrinkles (rhytides), and stretch marks (striae). (The procedure is less effective on deep, narrow “ice-pick” acne scars than on broader ones.)   

Because microneedling does not deliver heat to the skin like lasers do, people who have melasma (dark patches of skin) and hyperpigmentation (dark spots on the skin) can undergo microneedling without the risk of worsening pigmentation problems. (Darker skin is susceptible to pigmentation changes as a post-inflammatory response.) 

Microneedling is sometimes used to help topical skin treatments to penetrate the skin more effectively. For example, microneedling is sometimes performed before application of minoxidil, used to treat common hair loss (androgenic alopecia, which affects both men and women).

There are a few temporary side effects to be aware of with microneedling. The procedure causes short-term swelling, redness, and skin flaking, which can last for a few days. Most people can return to wearing regular makeup within a day of treatment. Skin will be more sun-sensitive after treatment, so sunscreen is also advised.   

Microneedling may worsen active breakouts, so people with active inflammatory acne or oral herpes should not be treated with microneedling until the lesions have cleared. Those with a history of oral herpes may be prescribed an oral antiviral medication for one week following treatment because the procedure may stimulate a new cold sore. 

A standard facial is simply a skin treatment that actively cleanses your pores, exfoliates your face, and treats common skin issues. This multi-step process varies depending on the techniques used and your end goal. Although many seek this treatment in order to be pampered, facials provide a wide range of unique benefits, especially in terms of seasonal changes.

For example, during the spring months, you may notice that your skin becomes more oily, making you more prone to breakouts. In comparison, in late fall, you may notice that your skin is drying out and requires better moisture balance. A facial can help remedy these concerns while helping you achieve a more glowing complexion.

Although many people get facials based on the fact that they're relaxing, a facial can do wonders for your skin -- regardless of your skin type.

Even if you do not suffer from acne or hyperpigmentation, facials can help you maintain a healthier glow. Just some of the main benefits associated with facials include, but are not limited to:

Their ability to de-stress and reduce anxiety levels. This is based on the hundreds of pressure points found on your face, all of which are connected to other body systems. Their cleansing capabilities, which will help detoxify and rejuvenate your skin. In turn, this will improve the texture of your skin and help treat any damaged areas. Their anti-aging effects, as facials are able to tighten the skin, eliminate dark bags, promote circulation, and encourage skin cell regeneration.

When you first begin your facial, you will likely meet with your esthetician for a consultation. This will simply help them determine your skin type and any overall concerns regarding your skin health. You may also want to mention your budget. Based on that information, they can then determine what products and techniques will be most appropriate.

Although facials differ in terms of the step-by-step process involved, most basic facials involve:
