Treatment is usually needed every 12 to 24 months as the fillers are absorbed by the body.

Microneedling Treatment

Q: What is it?

A: Medical grade microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment to rejuvenate the skin and minimize the visibility of aging.

Q: Will it make me look younger?

A: Yes. Treatment with microneedling is also a great way to shrink pore size. Larger skin pores add years to your face and overall look. Smaller skin pores subtract years from your appearance and give you a more youthful look.
