Micro-channeling is an advanced skin rejuvenation technology that fills a niche for patients that want real results with minimal downtime. The procedure can be performed alone or in combination with other skin rejuvenation treatments to minimize pores, refine skin texture and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and scars.
This innovative technique utilizes a micro-channeling device to deliver a customized cocktail of ingredients, that may include Botox, hyaluronic acid and/or antioxidant, skin brightening or lightening serums. The device infuses micro-droplets of your personalized recipe of ingredients through tiny sterile needles, each of which is finer in width than a strand of human hair. The liquid mixture is gently infused into the skin using a stamping motion.
What Are The Potential Benefits of Micro-Infusion?
The benefits of micro-infusion vary with the ingredients infused for your targeted skin care concerns. When infused superficially into the skin Botox lessens oil production, reduces pore size, and refines skin texture. By decreasing oil production, micro- infusion of Botox may also lessen inflammatory acne lesions. Infusion of hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin and fills fine lines and skin irregularities. Antioxidant, skin lightening and brightening serums diminish blotchy pigmentation and promote skin health.
Is The Treatment Painful and What Can I Expect Following Treatment?
The treatment is relatively pain-free. You may experience mild redness and skin sensitivity for several hours following treatment. The benefits accrue over a few days to weeks. Enhanced results can be achieved through a series of treatments.
What Areas of the Skin Can Be Treated With This Technology?
The treatment is most commonly performed on the face, neck and décolleté but any area of the skin can be treated.
Who Should Consider this Treatment?
Micro-channeling is an ideal treatment for patients who need a quick fix for an event or desired more radiant, smooth skin without downtime. It is also a great option for patients with an oily complexion, enlarged pores and/or acne.
