Microneedling and Chemical Peels

Microneedling works by creating miro-injuries to the skin so that in response to the micro-injuries the skin produces collagen and elastin and thus improving the skin’s appearance. Microneedling can help resurface the skin, help with scarring, even out uneven skin tone and texture, and tighten the skin. As we age, we lose approximately 1% of the amount of collagen in our skin on our face each year. This leads to thinning, aging, sagging, dull, and fragile skin. Microneedling can help reverse or halt those signs of aging, giving you youthful, clear and even skin. Prevention is key to minimizing wrinkles and aging skin. The VI chemical peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that is a simple, pain-free treatment formulated to rejuvenate aging skin and help prevent futher damage. The VI chemical peel is made with a unique blend of salicylic acid, vitamin c, phenol, retinoic acid, and TCA. Chemical peels are non-invasive treatments that work to slow or reverse the aging process. Chemical peels help restore skin that is blemished, damaged, dull or aged and give the skin a glow that can last for months. During a chemical peel treatment, a blend of chemicals are applied to the top (epidermal) layer of your skin which initiates a healing process that in turn creates cell renewal and exfoliation. Chemical peels can help improve skin tone, texture (including acne scars), hyperpigmentation, such as melasma, fine lines and deep wrinkles.
