What is microneedling and how does it work?
MicroNeedling, also known as C.I.T. (Collagen Induction Therapy), has a lot of people talking. Dermatologists have used it for decades to treat facial scars, but recently MicroNeedling has seen a surge in popularity with the results of improving not only acne scarred skin, but aging skin. It has shown to significantly improve skin texture (fine lines, wrinkles & pores) as well as improving skin firmness.
But is it really a miracle cure for scars and wrinkles?
MicroNeedling/C.I.T. (Collagen Induction Therapy), is a skin transformation treatment has been designed for those that are serious about making changes to their skin. The treatment uses a device using tiny, shallow needles to make channels into the epidermis and dermis to release growth factors and promote healing, this allows for the skin to start the process of creating new collagen.
The channels are actually therapeutic, since they cause a ‘micro injury’ that
prompts skin to stimulate collagen production, filling in fine lines, indented acne scars, plumping the skin and contributing to a younger look.

If you’re afraid of needles, it's really not what you think of, when you think of a "needle". Plus, we apply a really good numbing ointment prior to this treatment to minimize discomfort. So if you don’t mind a bit of prickly therapy to help combat acne scars, I wrinkles or large pores, this treatment might be for you! To give you an idea, on a "Pain Scale" of 1-10, with 10 being the most painful...most clients experience about 0-3, and that's only in specific areas, not the whole face.
Microneedling works great for sunken areas on the skin caused by acne or chickenpox, as well as for fine lines, discoloration and general skin rejuvenation to increase smoothness and firmness.
What to expect during MicroNeedling
First, an anesthetic ointment (numbing cream) is applied to the area(s) of skin to be treated to keep you comfortable during the treatment.
The licensed and trained Esthetician will then use a device specifically designed for MicroNeedling, to use on the treated area(s).
The process typically takes 45-60 minutes, and afterwards, your skin will probably be red, similar to a sunburn. Lasting anywhere from later that evening
to 48hrs later. Peeling/flaky skin may also take place.
Each client is different with different reactions.
Results gradually become apparent. This is a cumulative treatment process.
Natural collagen growth and skin rejuvenations will continue to happen 12 months after your last treatment! So it isn’t an instant fix, but your skin will be much improved over the long term. However...many clients notice clarity after first week!
Treatment terms: An actual “MicroNeedling Treatment” is 3 service/procedure appointments. Depending on the skin area(s) treated and what you’re trying to achieve, somewhere between 3 and 6 MicroNeedling treatments are typically required for optimal results. After you've completed your treatment series, you can then choose to do single treatments for maintenance.
Those looking to treat deep wrinkles, large pores, scarring or severe sun damage (dark spots) may need 6 or more MicroNeedling treatments.
Average # of treatments per published findings:
To ensure the safety of your skin, treatments are usually spaced out
3 weeks to 1 month apart.

* Information on the Stem Cell/Growth Factors you can choose to use during the MicroNeedling treatment.
THE ANTEAGE® DIFFERENCE
The stem cells are derived from the bone marrow of young, healthy,
pre-screened adult donors. The cells are cultured in a laboratory, within a controlled environment that fosters production of the biosignals that will
engage in skin repair and rejuvenation.
Healthy, Younger Looking Skin through Exceptional Science Research has
revealed the role stem cells play in tissue repair, particularly the skin.
AnteAGE® pioneered the science of reactivating the skin's natural
regenerative properties by utilizing Stem and Growth Factor Cytokines
derived from human bone marrow, the most natural and powerful option
to restore youthful skin. The scientists behind AnteAGE® have harnessed
the healing power of stem cells to regain your skin’s ability to
behave youthfully, and heal beautifully.
Boost Your Skin's Natural Healing System. Your skin works hard to protect you every day. Stem cells within your skin contain hundreds of different Growth Factors & Cytokines used to manage the healing process or nearly flawless regeneration. These are the most intelligent anti-inflammatory agents in your body.
With young skin, our naturally occurring stem cells are robust and responsive, keeping skin smooth, elastic, and radiant. But as we age, we have fewer
of these cells available to repair skin damage. Over time this damage
adds up and our skin health deteriorates.
Growth Factors are now established by peer-reviewed research as the
highest level of optimization in anti-aging skincare. The scientists behind
AnteAGE have harnessed the healing power of stem cells to regain your skin’s ability to behave youthfully, and heal beautifully.
