Procell Microchanneling in Sea Girt

Microneedling is a popular treatment option at La Bella MD Medical Spa in Sea Girt. We use multiple fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the body’s own healing response, prompting your skin to produce collagen and elastin—the building blocks of healthy, youthful-looking skin.

RF microneedling takes this process to a whole new level. This treatment heats the underlying layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin. This means we can reach deeper layers of the skin compared to a traditional microneedling appointment. This can produce even faster, more dramatic results that last longer than microneedling alone.

Because the technique behind microneedling utilizes your body’s natural ability to produce collagen, results vary from person to person. However, most clients begin to see improvement about three to six months after their last treatment.

As with similar treatments, results are greatly influenced by your lifestyle, sun exposure, diet, and the use of effective skincare products. That said, your aesthetician will personalize an at-home skincare regimen for you to help maintain your results long-term.

For optimal results, we may recommend a series of three or more treatments, each scheduled four to six weeks apart.

During your initial consultation for RF microneedling in Sea Girt, we will make a personalized recommendation for the number of treatments you need. It may depend on your overall skincare goals, lifestyle, and budget. For example, if you want to treat deep acne scars or stretch marks, you may need more than three RF microneedling treatments to see optimal results.

At La Bella MD Medical Spa, we dedicate ourselves to not only helping you reach your skincare goals but making you feel comfortable throughout the process. The feeling patients experience during RF microneedling is best described as a mild scratching sensation. You may also feel some heat and an occasional warm needle prick.

Before we begin, your aesthetician will apply a topical anesthetic to ensure your procedure is tolerable. If you have any concerns about the level of pain you may experience during RF microneedling, be sure to voice them! We’ll be there for you every step of the way and will walk you through everything you need to know. We want you to not only feel prepared for your microneedling treatment; we want you to be excited about taking the steps you need to achieve your goals.

If you have active acne, you should consider alternative treatments; the microneedling technique can actually spread acne-causing bacteria over the skin, causing new breakouts. Additionally, you may not be a candidate for microneeding at this time if: you have used Accutane within the last three months; have open wounds, cuts, or abrasions; have had radiation on your skin in the last year; have a skin infection or herpes simplex in the treatment area; have trouble healing; or are pregnant or breastfeeding.
