MicroNeedling
To put it simply, Microneedling is a process in which a trained and skilled provider glides a small wand that contains multiple fine-tipped needles across your skin. These needles create tiny pricks in your skin, which your body recognizes as trauma. In turn, your body then immediately starts the repair and recovery process of your skin.
1. Stimulate natural collagen production for vibrant, younger looking skin.
As we age, our skin loses some of its natural collagen, which can lead to loss of firmness, elasticity, and volume. With Microneedling, more of your own collagen is stimulated, thus leaving you with an overall softer, smoother skin texture. Who doesn’t want that!?
2. Reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
As your tiny wounds heal, your skin actually becomes stronger in the process. You’ll likely notice a significant decrease in fine lines and wrinkles, which is a huge reason why this treatment is so popular among people of many different ages. Since I am in my mid-to-late twenties, now is the time I’m starting to notice more of those pesky little fine lines – and doing what I can to prevent more of them. Microneedling is a great option for this, since preventing is just as important as treating.
3. Help minimize large pores and blackheads.
We all know how annoying blackheads are, and – let’s be real – those pore clearing strips don’t do a dang thing. When hair follicles on the face are clogged by excess oil, they oxidize, causing what we know as blackheads. If you experience an overabundance of blackheads, this can, unfortunately, lead to enlarged pores and fine lines.
Microneedling essentially opens the pores, which allows blackheads to be released. With consistent treatments, you’ll notice less and less blackheads over time. Win!
4. Reduce hyperpigmentation and dark spots.
If you’ve ever suffered from acne, you know how frustrating the dark spots that are sometimes left behind can be. Even without acne, hyperpigmentation can affect just about anyone. Microneedling can actually reduce the damage caused by hyperpigmentation, leading to a clearer, more even complexion.
5. Reduce acne scarring and pock marks.
Post-acne marks, rough texture, deep scarring – it’s all too familiar. These things become more common as we age and can be exasperating to deal with. Collagen and elastin are the primary proteins responsible for the structure of the skin, and when the two are stimulated, you’re left with smoother, vibrant skin.
Now that we’ve covered some of the benefits of Microneedling, let’s talk about a couple other things you should know before scheduling a treatment.
We recommend at least 3 treatments spaced out 3-4 weeks apart from each other for the best results

What is Ultrasonic Cavitation?
Ultrasonic Cavitation uses low-frequency ultrasound waves to reduce fatty deposits and smooth out cellulite in problematic areas of the body. It is a safe, non-surgical alternative to liposuction that is completely painless with no down time; before or after treatment.
How Does It Work?
Cavitation uses low-frequency ultrasound to break up adipose tissue (or cellulite) in the body. The ultrasound penetrates approximately 2-4 millimeters below the skins surface where the vibration from the ultrasound waves begin to disrupt the cells and separate them until they burst and liquefy.
How Many Will I Need?
That depends on the area treated. You will notice results after the first session, however, optimal results are achieved between 3 and 9 visits. Treatments can be scheduled weekly. Maintenance is suggested every 3 months.
Where Does It Go?
Once the adipose tissue is liquefied, it is massaged into your lymphatic system which is responsible for removing toxins from your body. Your lymphatic system will continue to work to flush the toxins for up to 72 hours following your treatment.
What Can I Do To Manage My Results?
Avoid steam rooms or saunas for 48 hours. Make healthy food choices and exercise at least 30 minutes every day. We ask that you refrain from alcohol for 48 hours after treatment and avoid caffeine so that your body can focus on removing the adipose. Drink 60-80 ounces of water the day before, the day of and the day after your treatment.
How Long Will It Last?
The fat cells that the ultrasonic cavitation eliminates during your treatment are gone. Results you get from the cavitation are PERMANENT! It is important to remember that your body has a natural propensity to rebuild fat. Just as when you change your diet and lose weight, or work out and lower your body fat; your results will only last as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle.
How Is It Different From Liposuction?
Liposuction is invasive, painful and requires anesthesia. There is no down time from ultrasonic cavitation. The process is relaxing and pain free!
What Are The Contraindications?
The procedure cannot be preformed if you are pregnant or nursing. You will need a doctor's release if you have any of the following: hypertension, diabetes, cancer, HPV, HIV, heart disease, epilepsy, thyroid disease, metal prosthesis, obesity, phlebitis, pacemaker, IUD, liver or kidney disease. You will need to reschedule your appointment if you are menstruating.
What Are The Side Effects?
There are minimal side effects. Treatment site redness has been reported. These side effects resolve themselves within a few hours after treatment. When cavitation is performed on the abdomen, there is the possibility of slight cramping or tenderness.
What is Vacuum Therapy?
Vacuum therapy stimulates the muscles, breaks the cellulite and fat deposits, removes toxins and improves lymphatic drainage. Vacuum therapy also helps restore the natural elasticity of the skin to soften the appearance of dimples on the thighs and buttocks area. This therapy is painless, safe, and highly effective. In vacuum therapy through the combination of their different mechanisms of action and stimulating of the blood; performs lymphatic drainage, which means a direct stimulation of fibroblasts and an increase in elastin production collage grid, improves the texture and tone of the treated area. There are minimal side effects. Treatment site redness and small blisters have been reported. These side effects resolve themselves within a few hours after treatment. When cavitation is performed on the abdomen, there is the possibility of slight cramping or spotting.
How does Vacuum Therapy Work?
Vacuum therapy is a treatment that is carried out with suction cups that are connected to a special machine that produces suction tissue. The glasses are manipulated and are handled in special way to achieve desired effects such as removal of cellulite, body contouring ,and firming as well as lifting.
What is Wood Therapy?
This procedure employs anatomically-sculpted wooden implements to improve the body’s size and proportions while advancing overall health. This therapy helps redefine body contours, reduce cellulite and facilitate weight loss. These instruments allow highly targeted pressure to be applied, and that pressure intensifies the breakdown of fat and fibrous cellulite so that it can be eliminated naturally with other toxins.
