Transform Your Skin from Within — Professional Microneedling in Placerville
A clinically supported approach to stronger, smoother, more radiant skin.
Microneedling rebuilds collagen from within, helping reduce wrinkles, refine pores, lighten pigmentation, and improve hair density through enhanced circulation and growth-factor activation.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling (also called collagen induction therapy) uses a medical-grade device which creates controlled, micro-channels on the skin or scalp. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing pathways—stimulating fibroblasts, increasing collagen & elastin production, improving circulation, and enhancing the uptake of topical agents. Because the epidermal integrity remains mostly intact, the procedure has less downtime than deeper laser resurfacing.
Key Benefits You May Experience
Skin Benefits
- Reduced Fine Lines & Wrinkles — Clinical evidence shows microneedling leads to measurable collagen increases and visible wrinkle reduction.
- Improved Skin Texture & Tone — Smoother skin surface, more even pigmentation and renewed firmness.
- Effective for Acne Scars & Atrophic Scarring — Randomized and systematic reviews indicate significant scar-depth improvement using microneedling.
Hair-Growth / Scalp Benefits
- Increased Hair Count in Thinning Areas – A randomized evaluator-blinded study of male androgenetic alopecia (AGA) compared weekly microneedling + 5% minoxidil versus minoxidil alone and found the microneedling group significantly superior in hair growth.
- Improved Hair Diameter & Follicle Activity (Adjunctive Use) – A 2024 meta-analysis of microneedling + topical minoxidil found significant improvements in hair count (SMD ~15.82) and some improvements in hair diameter in androgenetic alopecia.
- Low Downtime & Integrative Scalp Health – Because the method stimulates natural repair and improved circulation in the scalp, it aligns with a holistic approach to hair health including nutrition, lymphatic drainage, and traditional medicine support.
