Microneedling

Losing collagen is a fact of life. As we age, collagen production slows and our skin loses its elasticity which causes fine lines, wrinkles, and even sagging. We all covet fresh, young, beautiful skin and while a professional skincare regime can help maintain and protect – it often isn’t enough to keep aging at bay. If you are looking for total skin rejuvenation, then it might be time to consider Microneedling. Whether you pair it with HA, PRP, or Mesotherapy, Microneedling is hugely beneficial for many skin concerns.
All of our Microneedling treatments include Red Light Therapy. Not only had LED therapy been proven to have a soothing analgesic effect – helping your skin feel better during the healing process, but it supports healing after your microneedling sessions. LED treatments continue stimulating blood flow and collagen production. It supports cell health in the form of reduced inflammation, increased circulation, and increased energy production.
WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING?
To put it simply, Microneedling, or Collagen Induction Therapy, is an incredibly effective treatment that pricks the skin with tiny needles creating micro-injuries. These microscopic injuries stimulate your body’s natural collagen production – making your skin and body tissue stronger and more flexible.
At Sage Spa, we use the most advanced medical-grade automated micro-needling device on the market – the Eclipse MicroPen®. It is more effective and precise than derma-rollers and doesn’t use heat like lasers.
WHAT OPTIONS ARE THERE FOR MICRONEEDLING?
As we mentioned, we offer Microneedling with HA, PRP, and MESOTHERAPY. Allow us to break these down a little bit for you:
HA – HYALURONIC ACID: Hyaluronic acid when absorbed into the skin after microneedling, can aid in adding volume and providing nourishing hyaluronic acid to the skin. When paired with micro-needling, the repair process begins almost immediately resulting in softened wrinkles and scars, as well as a thicker dermis.
PRP – PLATELET RICH PLASMA: Platelet Rich Plasma, or PRP, is an enhancement to standard Microneedling and is produced from your own blood. PRP contains highly concentrated amounts of natural growth factors and other cytokines that promote the regeneration process of soft tissues and speeds up the healing process. The PRP is applied directly to the channels that were created from the micro-needling to further stimulate the natural healing process and creation of collagen.
MESOTHERAPY: Our skincare professionals create a personalized cocktail of vitamins, antioxidants, and HA to use on your skin. We offer the Mesotherapy addition to our Microneedling treatment as well as with our specialized stamping tool used with AquaLuxe.
WHAT DOES MICRONEEDLING TREAT?
TESTIMONIAL:
Decided to take the plunge and hop on the Microneedling bandwagon and I paired it with PRP. Needless to say, I am BLOWN AWAY!
First off, Rebecca was fantastic – so sweet and knowledgable. Next, I was surprised it was absolutely painless. I loved it so much and my skin is feeling fabulous and radiant. If you are sititng on the fence of whether you should invest in this type of treatment – DO IT! My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner!
I have spent a lot of time and a lot of money over the years trying to improve the texture of my skin and diminish old scars. PRP with Microneedling has been the first treatment that has made a big improvement for my facial scars. After my first treatment, there were noticeable improvements with the colour, texture and depth of my scars. I can’t wait to see the results after more treatments.
