Microneedling

Microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy. Ultra-fine needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which then trigger the body’s repair and healing mechanisms. This stimulates fibroblasts in the skin to produce more collagen and elastin. As a result, it can improve skin texture and pore size, reduce fine lines, and smooth out scars and acne scars. Microneedling is popular because it is has minimal downtime and is considered safe for all skin tones. Numbing cream is applied to ensure you are comfortable during the treatment, and most patients report little to no discomfort. The treated area will likely be pink or flushed for 1-2 days following treatment. Makeup can be applied the next day. A series of 6 treatments spaced four weeks apart will optimize results, and a yearly maintenance treatment may be advised. We also recommend a proper home care regimen to enhance and maintain your results.

Chemical Peels & Facials

Corrective peels are an excellent, non-invasive and comfortable way to help correct a variety of skin concerns without downtime. Peels and facials can be used treat dull, dry, tired-looking skin, sun damage, dark spots, melasma, acne and clogged pores, acne scars, as well as fine lines and wrinkles. Our facials and medical-grade chemical peels range from mild to deep, and our experienced aestheticians customize your treatment to suit your unique skin care needs. Our aestheticians are trained in facial treatments that are safe for all skin tones and for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Allow 30 – 60 minutes for chemical peels and facials. Here are just a few of our chemical peel and facial options:

  • VI Peel®
    The VI Peel collection is renowned for producing results: healthy and lustrous skin in as little as 7 days. These medium-depth peels are comfortable yet penetrate to deeper layers of the skin, improving melasma, fine lines, acne, and hyperpigmented scarring. VI Peel can treat face and body, and is safe for all skin types. Social downtime of a few days is common.
  • Obagi® Radiance Peel
    The Obagi Radiance Peel, is a comfortable, light chemical peel which exfoliates the skin and improves your overall complexion. The Radiance Peel reduces dark spots, sun damage, blemishes, and large pores while smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. Most patients experience a light peeling lasting two to seven days, although daily life can continue as normal. Three to six treatments are recommended to achieve optimal results.
  • PCA Peels & Masks
    We offer a variety of PCA Jessner’s chemical peels and masks specifically formulated to treat sensitive skin, acne, discoloration, and aging.
  • Acne Facial
    After a quick consultation to determine your unique acne issues, our experienced aestheticians gently cleanse the face, chest or back and complete extractions of any clogged pores before proceeding to step two of the treatment. Depending on the type of acne, our aestheticians may recommend either a light chemical peel or laser treatment to shrink pores, reduce acne scarring and eliminate acne-causing bacteria.
  • Rejuvenation Facial
    Relax and enjoy this calming treatment that leaves your skin soft and supple. Customized with antioxidants, exfoliants, peptides, vitamins, and hydration factors based on the needs of your individual skin. Perfect for mature skin and a refreshed appearance.

Jelly Mask

Hydrojelly® Masks can be added to any facial treatment. You can relax and let the soothing jelly mask infuse your skin with benefits like antioxidants, anti-inflammatory ingredients and hydration.

Dermaplaning

Our experienced aestheticians exfoliate the top layer of dead skin cells using a comfortable, specialized blade to reveal the beautiful skin beneath. Dermaplaning removes dead skin and peach fuzz, stimulates the growth of new skin cells, and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Your skin will be smoother, revitalized, and radiant. With routine treatments, your skin will continue to improve. Dermaplaning before facials and chemical peels promotes the absorption and results of the treatment as well as the skin care products you use at home. Dermaplaning takes approximately 60 minutes.

Plasma Pen Fibroblasting

Plasma Pen® skin tightening (also known as “fibroblasting”) uses tiny bursts of plasma to tighten, firm and rejuvenate the skin. We usually see immediate tightening of the skin, and it stimulates the skin to step up collagen production for months afterward. Plasma Pen is used to treat wrinkles, loose skin and scars on the face and body. Unlike most modalities, we can treat the upper eyelid and the under-eye area, as well as crow’s feet, lip lines and the lower face. Numbing cream is applied to ensure you are comfortable, and most patients report little to no discomfort. Tiny pulses of plasma from the pen are applied individually to the skin which creates miniature dots or crusts on the skin. You can resume normal activities the next day, but there will be tiny brown dots in the treatment area. Makeup is allowed after about one week when the skin is fully healed.
