MICROCHANNELING
While the science of Microneedling is not new, Microchanneling is the latest iteration of Microneedling and the result of many years of skin care technology evolution. Since it was first developed, experts in the filed of dermatology, plastic surgery and cosmetic aesthetics, have come to recognize the value of needling therapy as a minimally invasive option and have continued to improve the devices and technology used.
Microchanneling a procedure that punctures thousands of tiny holes, aka micro-channels, into your skin to generate collagen production. These tiny holes are ideal to soak up the Anetage stem cell serum which is an innovative technology that helps promote the growth of collagen and elastin. The collagen and elastin plumps, thickens, and restores the skin to improve the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, rosacea, and more.
Why It Works
Microchanneling creates tiny perforations in the skin that initiate a natural healing response. These perforations cause a healing cascade that produces new collagen and elastin resulting in firmer, healthier skin. We combine this with a high potency micro-channel delivery solution, cellular renewal serum, and healing accelerator specifically formulated to trigger the collagen producing cells in your body to go into overdrive and create permanent new healthy skin. This works so well because the micro vertical channels the needles make, creates thousands of micro injuries in the skin which triggers an inflammatory healing process leading to collagen growth. The stem cell serum is then able to sink in and reach deep into the skin which helps further the growth of collagen and elastin. After your first session you will notice an immediate difference in the tone and texture of your skin. After a few sessions, this treatment will leave you with dramatic results.

What can I expect after a treatment?
Microchanneling produces maximum stimulation, with minimal inflammation and little to zero down time while maximizing results. The typical recovery involves just a day or so of mild redness. Within 90 minutes after your treatment you can apply the recommended moisturizer and SPF. 6 hours or next day, start applying Post Care Cellular Renewal Serum & Healing Accelerator (provided with each treatment)morning and night.
Expect to see long term improvement that resists the aging process when you complete a series of treatments as recommended by our team.
How many treatments will I need?
With as few as one treatment, microchanneling has been shown to improve the quality of the skin. We recommend a series of 3-6 treatments about once a month to dramatically improve your skin’s firmness, smoothness, elasticity, hydration, sensitivity, tone, wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, age-spots/sunspots, laxity and stretch marks.
