Microneedling at Prejuve Medspa:

A Comprehensive Approach to Skin and Hair Rejuvenation Part 1

At Prejuve Medspa, we offer advanced microneedling treatments and Visia skin analysis designed to rejuvenate your skin and stimulate hair regrowth. Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries, triggering your body’s natural healing process. This results in increased collagen and elastin production, essential for youthful skin and healthy hair.

Types of Microneedling offered at Prejuve Medspa: SkinPen & Morphues8

SkinPen is a medical-grade, FDA-cleared microneedling device manufactured by Crown Aesthetics, designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and overall skin texture by stimulating the skin’s natural wound healing process. It works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin using tiny needles, which stimulate the body’s natural healing response, prompting the production of new collagen and elastin, essential for healthy, youthful skin.

This process, known as collagen induction therapy, helps rejuvenate the skin by promoting the growth of new skin cells, leading to smoother, firmer skin with improved texture and tone over time. SkinPen is safe for all skin types and can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, and décolletage, making it particularly effective in treating acne scars, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation.

One of the benefits of SkinPen treatment is minimal downtime, with patients typically experiencing only mild redness and swelling immediately after the procedure, which usually subsides within a day or two. Additionally, the depth and intensity of the treatment.

can be customized based on the specific needs and goals of the individual, making it a versatile option for addressing various skin concerns.

Microneedling is typically done in a series of treatments for optimal results, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart, depending on the treatment goals.

We utilize Morpheus8, an innovative combination of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This powerful treatment penetrates deeper layers of the skin, offering enhanced collagen stimulation and effective skin tightening. Morpheus8 is particularly effective for addressing severe wrinkles, scars, and skin laxity, making it an ideal choice for those seeking transformative results without surgery.

Morpheus8 can be used on various areas of the body, not just the face. Its combination of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy allows it to target deeper layers of the skin, making it effective for tightening and rejuvenating different body areas. These areas include decollate, abdomen, thighs, hands, and knees.

The frequency of Morpheus8 treatments depends on the individual’s skin condition and desired results. Generally, most people start with a series of 3 to 4 treatments spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart to achieve optimal results. This schedule allows the skin to heal and for collagen production to be stimulated effectively between sessions.

After the initial series, maintenance treatments are usually recommended every 6 to 12 months to sustain the results. However, the exact timing can vary depending on factors like skin type, age, and specific treatment goals.
