Microneedling

Partial face treatments are an excellent option for patients who want to focus on specific areas of concern, such as the cheeks where enlarged pores and early volume loss are most apparent, the forehead where fine lines first emerge, or the perioral area where lip lines and textural changes develop.

Full face treatments provide full rejuvenation across the entire facial canvas. This option is ideal for patients addressing overall dullness, generalized fine lines, uneven texture, or those who simply want a complete refresh. The full face approach ensures consistent collagen stimulation and hydration across all zones, preventing the uneven results that can occur when only isolated areas are treated.

Regardless of the treatment area, each session is carefully performed by our team under the direction of Marissa Martinez-Thiele, who selects the appropriate needle depth and technique for each facial zone. Thinner skin around the eyes and lips requires a different approach than the thicker skin of the cheeks and forehead, and this attention to anatomical detail is what distinguishes a medical-grade microneedling experience from superficial alternatives.

Once the skin is prepared, the microneedling device is moved systematically across the treatment area while medical-grade hyaluronic acid serum is continuously applied, allowing it to penetrate deeply through the freshly created channels.

A partial face treatment takes approximately 30 minutes, while a full face session typically requires 45 minutes of active treatment time. Most patients describe the sensation as mild prickling with occasional areas of slightly more intensity, particularly around bonier areas like the forehead and jawline. The experience is very well tolerated with proper numbing.

Immediately after treatment, the skin appears pink to red with a healthy, dewy glow from the hyaluronic acid. This redness typically fades within 12 to 24 hours, with most patients feeling comfortable returning to their normal routine the following day. Mild flaking may occur over the next two to three days as the skin renews itself. Results become increasingly visible over the following four to six weeks as new collagen matures. For optimal outcomes, a series of three to six treatments spaced four weeks apart is recommended, with periodic maintenance sessions to sustain the cumulative benefits of microneedling.
