Why offer microneedling facial treatments? 

Microneedling treatments are delivered using a dermaroller or automated pen that gently passes across the skin’s surface to stimulate the natural healing process. Microneedling boosts the skin’s collagen production and can be used to treat acne scars, stretch marks, and age-related issues such as sunspots. The treatment boosts circulation and improves the skin’s health and elasticity by encouraging the skin to produce new collagen cells.
