Skinstylus Microneedling - 60 mins - $300

You may have noticed, but here at Luxury Skin by Lindsay, we only use the best of the best. So why is the  SkinStylus Microneedling device one of Lindsay's favs?

• The ONLY microneedling device with FDA clearance for use on both face and abdomen
• Three different (all FDA cleared) cartridge configurations for maximum flexibility, all cleared to 2.5mm*
• The ONLY microneedling device with the patented Seven-Step Safety System that prevents cross-contamination

This highly effective treatment can not only reduce signs of aging but enhance your skin’s overall appearance, too. 

SkinStylus™ Microneedling is safe for all skin types and promotes care-free healing to address acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles. It can also be used to decrease the appearance of stretch marks. It's a fast and safe method that initiates the production of collagen and elastin in your skin. 

*must be 22+ years old

 The fantastic thing about our bodies is that they have natural processes that react to injury by producing new cells and extracellular materials (like elastin and collagen) to heal. The SkinStylus® initiates this natural process with a finely-tuned Microneedling pen by creating hundreds of temporary micro-sized openings in your skin. These small openings are created with the SkinStylus®’s disposable needle cartridge, which achieves results without thermal energy or chemicals applied to the skin.

While multiple sessions are typically recommended to achieve optimal results depending on your specific goals, noticeable changes can be seen just one week after treatment and gradually improve as the body’s healing process begins to take effect. Side effects are similar to a mild sunburn, such as redness, tenderness, and some swelling. 

• Clean & Cleanse: We use cleansers to clean the skin surfaces that are receiving treatment.
• Numbing Cream: We apply a topical numbing cream to ease discomfort that may occur.
• Hyaluronic Acid Serum:  Hyaluronic acid that promotes rapid ultra hydration and volume.
• Microneedling Pen Procedure: We use small needles to prick top-layer epidermis, generating new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer and more toned skin.

I recommend 3-6 sessions depending on your age and the severity of skin condition you are wanting to treat. 

You should allow one month of recovery time in between each Microneedling session. After one month of healing, additional treatments may be suggested per each client’s needs presented as necessary.     

Not all Micro-Needling treatments are the same  The solution that is used and the technique a very important in determining the number of treatments as well as how well you stick to your home care.

There is little downtime associated with Microneedling but most feel some tenderness afterwards. This sensation may feel like a windburn or sunburn because of the micro trauma caused to the dermal layer. Every client is different, but this sensation typically lasts about 1-2 days and may be accompanied by redness and dryness, but there is no reason for concern.

It is common to see additional redness on thin areas like the neck, jawline and forehead. The client should avoid direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours and wear SPF daily. 

We highly suggest waiting to apply makeup until the next day. Each client should be advised to clean makeup brushes and products prior to makeup application with 90% isopropyl alcohol that can be purchased at any grocery or drug store and remember that just like any area of the body where a healing response has been triggered, keeping the area super clean is crucial to healing. 

 Home Care:

Clients are not required to use homecare, however, we strongly recommend it! Below is in order of most beneficial.

Vitamin C Serum – We like to use Circadia’s Vitamin C because it has C and the base is Hyaluronic acid. So you are getting benefits of C which brightens skin, stimulates collagen and is a powerhouse antioxidant fused with all the hydration benefits of hyaluronic acid. 

Hyaluronic Acid- The skin’s natural hydration factor, helping to elevate the hydration of the skin and hydro-dynamically replenish the skin’s natural moisture reservoir.

Collagen Protein Powder– An internal boost of collagen that helps with bone, joint and skin health. I Use Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder with Hualuronic Acid and Vitamin C that comes from grass fed + pasture raised cows.  It is tastless and goes great in smoothies or coffee.
