Microneedling

AVAILABLE AT ALL VEGA VITALITY LOCATIONS 

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that creates controlled microchannels in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response and stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. This process can improve skin texture, fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scars, and overall skin quality.

For optimal results, a series of treatments may be recommended based on your skin concerns and treatment goals.

Microneedling versus Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling:

Both treatments stimulate your skin’s natural regenerative response, but the primary difference is the addition of radiofrequency energy.

Traditional microneedling uses controlled mechanical stimulation to promote collagen production and improve concerns such as texture, pores, fine lines, and acne scarring. It can also be combined with regenerative treatments such as PRP or PRF when appropriate.

RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy below the skin’s surface through the microneedles. This provides an additional thermal stimulus that can enhance collagen remodeling and is especially useful when skin tightening and firmness are treatment goals.

Your Vega Vitality provider can recommend the treatment approach best suited to your skin, goals, and desired downtime.

Microneedling with PRP or Exosomes:

Microneedling can be paired with topical application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or Exosomes, which contain concentrated growth factors. These regenerative treatments may be incorporated into a personalized treatment plan to support the skin’s natural healing and rejuvenation process.

 

PRP may be particularly useful when treating concerns such as acne scarring, skin texture, and overall skin quality.
