Microneedling w/ PRP
What is it
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses multiple tiny needles in a pen-like device to create micro-injuries to the skin. When done using medical-grade equipment, these micro injuries are deep enough to penetrate below the top layer of the skin in order to reach the epidermis and even deeper dermis that lie below. These microscopic injuries trick the body into stimulating the production of collagen which is used to promote healing and skin turnover.
PRP, or platelet rich plasma, is found in your own blood and is rich in proteins such as growth factors and cytokines that support cell growth and regeneration. By injecting these highly concentrated proteins into different areas of the body, the idea is that it will stimulate your body to grow new cells, promote skin turnover, and lessen healing time. In addition to skin regeneration, PRP has also been used to help diminish scars and to promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.

Blended Peels are Superior to Single Acid Peels
Single-Acid peels inherently treat a limited number of conditions. For example, a straight TCA peel is amazing at combating the signs of aging. Unfortunately, obtaining impactful results requires a high percentage of TCA. Not only is it painful, but treatment will also be limited to Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-III. Blended peels have an ability to not only address a patient’s primary concern, but will simultaneously address any secondary skin conditions they may have as well.
​
The VI Peel
The VI Peel is a unique blend of 5 acids designed to target multiple conditions.
​
How the VI Peel works
​
Retinoic Acid
This powerhouse acid penetrates the skin inhibiting melanin production and increasing cell turnover.
Trichloroacetic Acid
TCA then targets signs of aging by boosting collagen and exfoliating the skin.
Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid prevents inflammation by killing bacteria, suppresses sebum production and cleansing the pores.
Phenol
This is the secret weapon that numbs the skin allowing for a painless application.
Ascorbic Acid
Finally, the ascorbic acid is a powerful antioxidant that reverses free radicals, evens skin tone and helps prevent future damage.
