  • Come Clean: Arrive with a clean face if possible, though we will cleanse you regardless.

  • Know Your Products: Be ready to tell us what you are currently using at home (or bring a photo of your shelfie). This helps us customize your treatment.

  • Stop Retinol: Pause Retin-A or heavy exfoliants 3 days before just to be safe, especially if we decide to do a peel.

  • Men: Shave the night before or morning of to allow for better product penetration and smoother extractions.

  • The Consult: We start by looking at your skin under the mag lamp and deciding the game plan together.

  • The Toolbox: Your session might include Dermaplaning (to remove peach fuzz), Enzymes/Peels (to exfoliate), Extractions (to clear pores), High Frequency (to zap zits), and LED Light (to heal).

  • The Feel: It’s a mix of “work” (tingly peels, pinching extractions) and “rest” (massage, cooling masks).

  • Duration: Expect to be with us for about 60–75 minutes depending on what your skin needs.

  • Immediate Glow: You will likely leave looking hydrated and dewy.

  • Pinkness: If we did heavy extractions, you might be a little pink in those spots for a few hours.

  • Purging: It is common to get a small breakout 1–2 days after a deep cleaning as the skin purges remaining congestion.

  • Downtime: generally Zero. You can go back to work or out to dinner, though we recommend skipping makeup for the rest of the day if possible.

  • Don’t Touch: We just cleared your pores; don’t fill them back up with bacteria from your fingers.

  • Skip the Gym: Avoid heavy sweating for 24 hours, especially if we did a peel or extensive extractions.

  • Clean Pillowcase: Sleep on a fresh pillowcase tonight to keep your clear skin clean.

  • Sun Protection: Your fresh skin is sensitive. Wear SPF 30+ daily.

  • Resume Actives: Wait 3–5 days before restarting your retinol or strong acids.

FAQ

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?

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.
