Your choice for MicroNeedling, Chemical Peels and Clinical Facials in Matawan, NJ

A treatment requiring advanced training and certification, performed with the use of the SkinStylus, the go-to medical device for physicians and skincare practitioners .  This device is designed to create micro-injuries in the skin.  As part of the healing process the fibroblasts (special cells in the skin) generate increased amounts of collagen and elastin, the infrastructure of our skin, which sadly decreases with age. This treatment is like time travel for our skin! The increase in collagen and elastin visibly decreases fine/deep lines and wrinkles, skin laxity, hyper-pigmentation (sun/age spots) as well as scars.  Patients typically notice an evening out of skin tone and texture initially post treatment.  A series is recommended for optimal results. MicroNeedling is the gold standard for skin rejuvenation, as well as scar, burn and stretch mark resurfacing.

A clinically proven infrared light emitting device, utilizing NASA LED technology, allows topical heat and multiple red-light wavelengths to deeply penetrate the skin, stimulating collagen production to minimize the various signs of aging: reducing fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, skin laxity and improving the overall appearance of the skin. The thermal activity provides a no-downtime, anti-aging, and reparative treatment for a more youthful glow.

A chemical peel utilizes any number of solutions with a low PH which is then applied to and allowed to remain on the skin for a brief period of time. The selection of solution is dependent on the condition being addressed, “treatment readiness” of the skin, as well as commitment level to post care. The purpose of a peel is to dissolve the outermost layer of skin cells in the epidermis, which may result in flaking or peeling over the following days, revealing fresher, younger skin below. Peels are very effective in treating a large range of skin concerns such as melasma, aging, sun damage, acne, mild scarring, improving skin brightness, and evening out skin tone.
