Microchanneling is an advanced, minimally invasive collagen-induction therapy that utilizes ultrafine needles to create precise microchannels in the skin. This innovative process triggers the body’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production for firmer, more youthful skin. By enhancing product absorption and promoting cellular renewal, microchanneling effectively improves skin texture, reduces scars, and revitalizes overall complexion for a radiant, rejuvenated appearance.

While both treatments use needles, Microchanneling employs a precise stamping technique—creating uniform microchannels with minimal discomfort and little to zero downtime. Unlike traditional microneedling, which drags needles across the skin (often causing irritation, inflammation, or peeling), Microchanneling delivers controlled, gentle penetration without unnecessary trauma. This makes it perfect for sensitive skin types and an ideal choice for pre-event treatments, ensuring radiant, refreshed skin with no downtime or visible redness

Unlike traditional microneedling, microchanneling is designed for minimal to zero downtime, making it ideal for sensitive skin or quick pre-event treatments.

Here's what to expect: Immediate After-Effects (First 12–24 Hours):

• Slight redness (resolves within a few hours to a day—like a light sunburn).

• No peeling, swelling, or significant irritation (thanks to the stamping technique).

• Skin may feel tight or sensitive (easily soothed with hydrating serums).

• Precision stamping (no dragging = less trauma).

• Controlled microchannels (stimulate collagen without deep damage).

• No inflammation or wound response.

  Microchanneling is the go-to for "lunchtime procedures"—you can resume most activities immediately with just slight redness. It’s perfect for:

• Pre-event glow-ups (weddings, photoshoots)

• Sensitive skin (no irritation or peeling)

• Regular maintenance (no recovery = easy to fit into routines)

• Fine lines & wrinkles

• Acne scars & hyperpigmentation

• Dullness & uneven texture

• Stretch marks

• Product penetration (e.g., serums, exosomes)

For optimal results: A series of 4 to 6 treatments at least every 4 weeks for optimal results.

Maintenance: Every 4 to 6 months. Pair with exosomes or growth factors for enhanced regeneration.

Microchanneling, also known as microneedling or collagen induction therapy, is generally safe but has certain contraindications. Here are the key conditions where microchanneling should be avoided:

Absolute Contraindications (Avoid Completely)

-Active Skin Infections (e.g., herpes simplex, bacterial/fungal infections, open wounds) – Risk of spreading infection.

-Active Acne (Severe Cystic Acne) – Can worsen inflammation and spread bacteria.

-Keloid or Hypertrophic Scarring Tendency – May trigger excessive scarring.

-Skin Cancer or Suspicious Lesions – Risk of spreading malignant cells.

-Blood Clotting Disorders or Use of Blood Thinners – Increased risk of bleeding and bruising.

-Uncontrolled Diabetes – Delayed wound healing and infection risk.

-Recent Radiation Therapy or Chemical Peels – Skin may be too sensitive.

-Pregnancy – Limited studies on safety; best avoided.

Pre-Treatment:

• Avoid retinoids, retinol, acids (BHA & AHA), and sun exposure for 7 days.

• Day of: Arrive with clean skin (no makeup).

• Hydrate well to support skin recovery.

Post-Treatment:

• After 24 hours: Use a gentle cleanser and hyaluronic acid serum.

• Avoid: Sun exposure, harsh actives (retinol, AHA/BHA), and heavy makeup for 5 to 7 days.

• Moisturize & protect: Apply a mineral SPF 30+ daily (even indoors).

• Wait 48 hours before resuming workouts or saunas.
