Frequently asked questions about Deluxe Microneedling facial

6-9 treatments, 4-5 weeks apart. Treatment times as series vary and results aren’t guaranteed. Home care and daily habits are critical to achieving optimal results.

For optimal results, a period of effective active treatment products, such as Vitamin A, C or Resveratrol is recommended to allow the skin’s strength to build up.

Typically, you will see results after the first treatment. Lasting and more significant results will occur after 4-6 treatments. Your skin will continue to improve over the next 6-12 months after a course of treatments and when combined with the recommended post treatment care.

For minimum needed depths, microneedling treatments are painless. Treatments over 0.25mm deep, may require a topical anesthetic to be applied 15-40 minutes before the procedure. This will ensure a virtually pain free treatment.

Generally no, but you may experience facial redness for 12-72 hours after the treatment. Most people are able to return to normal daily activities immediately after the treatment. Application of a breathable camouflage will seal the skin and cover any redness for an immediate return to work. 

It is recommended to wait at least 7 days after filler injections, so that any post treatment bruising from the fillers can settle. It is also possible to have microneedling done several days before having fillers injected. Ask your provider- we cannot dispense medical advice.

What is it?

Rejuran’s c-PDRN® is a patented, Polydeoxyribonucleotide, naturally sourced hydrolyzed Salmon Sperm DNA, clinically studied and proven to promote healing and skin repair. Developed by our scientists to safely penetrate the skin without an injection, c-PDRN® works within the dermis to naturally encourage collagen production, repair damage and enhance your skin health.

How does it work?

c-PDRN® is molecularly small enough to be delivered beneath the epidermis without injections and is clinically proven to boost collagen production, improve the appearance of damaged skin, reduce the appearance of discoloration and inflammation, encourage cell regeneration, protect the skin barrier, improve elasticity, and reduce scarring. It is patented, clinically-tested technology recommended by dermatologists and trusted by skincare experts around the world.

What is it?

Arissence pure PDGF+ is a cutting-edge topical solution for skin rejuvenation. PDGF, which occurs naturally, helps promote skin rejuvenation. 

Results you can see

Pure PDGF+ helps produce the appearance of vibrant, healthy skin, and the incredible results are easy to see. 

How does it work?

Pure PDGF+ harnesses the power of nature’s most powerful growth factor for skin rejuvenation, PDGF.

The benefits of platelet-derived growth factor have been extensively studied by researchers. Ariessence utilizes recombinant technology to produce a pure, sterile, pharmaceutical-grade product. It contains only four ingredients: water, sodium acetate, hyaluronic acid, and sh-polypeptide-59 dimer. 

The pure PDGF+ topical solution combines the rejuvenative benefits of PDGF with the soothing hydration of hyaluronic acid to support immediate soothing of the skin following aesthetic procedures.

This carboxytherapy gel mask introduces carbon dioxide to the skin, which naturally oxygenates and increases blood flow. The CO2Lift gel displaces oxygen off of hemoglobin, which enhances oxygen delivery to the skin and promotes blood flow- a cascade of events that will lead to healthier, more vibrant skin and faster healing post treatment. 

Tips for deluxe Microneedling facial

Bring your own UPF protection (i.e. Bluestone Sunshield) to your appointment as SPF will not be applied after the service and any light exposure will cause damage to the skin. If you do not have sufficient UPF protection, you will be required to purchase a Bluestone Sunshield at the time of your appointment.

MICRONEEDLING FACIAL—BEFORE AND AFTER CARE

No Retin-A products or applications for 48 hours prior to treatment.

No Auto-immune therapies or products for 48 hours prior to treatment.

No prolonged sun exposure or sunburns to the treatment area 72 hours prior to treatment.

The skin should be clean and make-up free.

If an active or extreme breakout occurs before treatment, evaluate on a case by case basis. Please text photos to 206-698-2431 for review.

After the treatment, take precautions against sun exposure. Do not apply sunscreen for 12 hours after the Microneedling treatment due to the skin’s channels being open for a period of time and due to the toxic nature of some sunscreens on the market.

Do not perform any vigorous exercise for at least 12 hours after treatment.

Do not apply make-up for at least 12 hours after the treatment. We recommend tinted sunscreen for use post-procedure versus other foundations.

Microneedling may trigger a cold sore response in patients and prophylaxis medication should be recommended for those who are prone to breakouts.

Wash the face thoroughly a few hours after treatment. Gently massage the face with tepid water, and remove all serum and other debris such as dried blood.

For the first 1-3 days the skin may be slightly dry and feel tight.

After 2-3 days patients can return to regular skin care products or as soon as it is comfortable to do so. Retinoids and AHA’s may not be suitable at this time, so please refer to your specific post-care instructions.

Avoid alcohol-based toners for 10-14 days.

Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 10 days if possible. 

Day 1: Erythema and red appearance and severity will depend upon how aggressive the treatment was performed.

Day 2: A red hue or pink hue persists like a moderate sunburn. Swelling may be more noticeable on the second day.

Day 3-5: Skin can be pink or normal color. Swelling subsides.
