My facial rejuvenation sessions first consist of constitutional body points to nourish the yin, bring circulation to the face, as well as strengthen digestion and the immune system (or whatever else my patient would like to work on). I follow that with using a protocol of small Japanese style needles on the face, focusing on whatever area is especially requested. After some time to relax with the needles, I come back into the treatment room with 3 types of jade gua sha tools and facial cups. I apply a face serum and face cream that I make with Chinese and local botanicals for gua sha and cups to moisturize into the skin. I also offer a professional-grade LED red light therapy to use during the treatment to enhance collagen production.

Microneedling

Microneedling uses a motorized pen device with 12 tiny sterile needles that create micro channels in the skin between .5mm-1.0mm depth. Your skin’s natural healing response to this controlled injury is to generate more collagen and elastin, which makes your skin tighter and smoother. Microneedling does not damage your top layer of skin, the epidermis.  Keeping the epidermis healthy maintains integrity of your keratinocyte cells, which are required to communicate with fibroblast cells in the dermis to boost collagen.  The micro needles don’t penetrate your skin very deeply, generally only half a millimeter, so the process is comfortable and only a bit of redness remains after treatment that will generally fade within 2 hours.  Microneedling allows serums to absorb into the dermis, rather than just sitting on top of the epidermis.  I use apple stem cells and Chinese herbal serums to erase wrinkles, smooth and tighten crepe-y skin, raise the jawline, erase sun damage, clear acne and even your skin tone.  You’ll notice results after one treatment, but I generally recommend one treatment per month for 4 months to achieve your goals.  Everyone’s skin is different, so you may need more or less depending on your results. My rate for microneedling is $200 per session which includes acupuncture with the infrared LED light, an aloe face mask, and an herbal-infused hyaluronic serum to take home with you. 

 

Nanoneedling

Nanoneedling uses a motorized pen device  with a specialized head with 81 hair-like silicone tips. The tips function to separate cells only at the epidermis level (0.15mm depth). Nanoneedling treatment allows for controlled serum infusions for treatments such as pigment reduction, increasing cell turnover, and rejuvenating the skin. Nanoneedling can be done weekly to exfoliate the skin and is usually completed in 30-60 minutes. My rate for nanoneedling is $200 which includes facial and body acupuncture, infrared LED light, and botanical serums.
