MICROCHANNELING

Microneedling and Microchanneling are minimally invasive cosmetic treatments that stimulate collagen and elastin production to improve the skin’s appearance and health by boosting its hydration, structure, resilience, and more. At Luna Med Spa we use the MicroPen Evo® and Meso Gold® which are a Health Canada approved devices.
 

Microneedling and Microchanneling are treatments that use tiny needles to create mild injuries to your skin. Your skin immediately will start to heal itself, creating healthier tissue during this process. By infusing Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), Exosomes, Peptides or a variety of serums during the treatment, you can boost your skin's collagen and elastin production.
 

The key component of youthful skin is collagen. Because of the protein's strength and flexibility, skin appears noticeably fuller and rounder. Skin can stretch out of shape and then easily return to its resting state due to elastin. However, ageing skin is less able to adequately restore collagen and elastin, which both degrade over time. This is the cause of fine lines and a dry, dull appearance on aging faces. In addition to further damaging the skin, sun exposure produces spots that disrupt a clear complexion.

 

Microneedling and microchanneling are effective treatments against fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, stretch marks and acne scarring. There is a one to three day healing period after these treatments, with some dryness that could last up to one week. This is followed by rejuvenated and healthy looking skin.
