What is microneedling?

Microneedling is an aesthetic treatment that uses your skin’s natural healing powers to rejuvenate your look and fix common skin concerns. 

For microneedling treatments, Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa uses the SkinPen, which was the first microneedling device cleared by the FDA. They use the SkinPen to treat:

• Acne scars
• Wrinkles
• Sun damage
• Lax skin
• Large pores
• Thin skin
• Uneven skin tone
• Stretch marks

The SkinPen is also the first FDA-cleared device to treat acne scars for people ages 22 years and older. Microneedling is safe for all skin types. 

How does microneedling work?

Linda uses the SkinPen to create controlled microinjuries in the surface layer of your skin. These microinjuries activate your skin’s healing cascade, which triggers the production of collagen and elastin.

Collagen and elastin are structural proteins found in the dermal layer of skin. These proteins are responsible for your skin’s youthful strength and resilience. As you get older, collagen and elastin production slows down, which contributes to many of the visible signs of aging. 

Your skin closes the tiny tears from the SkinPen quickly. By activating the healing process, microneedling triggers a remodeling of the tissue. The remodeling then creates firmer, stronger, and younger-looking skin without your skin enduring any real damage. 

What happens during a microneedling treatment?

Linda performs your microneedling treatments at the office. Treatment time varies but typically takes an hour. 

To ease discomfort during your microneedling session, Linda may apply a numbing lotion to your skin. She then uses the SkinPen to create controlled microinjuries to get the desired results. 

Though you may notice some skin redness following microneedling, you will only have 1-3 days of downtime. 

When can I expect to see results from microneedling?

You should start to see results from microneedling within 1-4 weeks. Your results may last 6-12 months. 

Microneedling is a gentle and safe cosmetic treatment you can repeat every 30 days. Linda typically performs microneedling treatments in a series of 3-6 sessions usually spaced about 12 weeks apart.

She may recommend additional microneedling sessions to treat stretch marks, acne scars, deep wrinkles, or advanced photoaging.

Facial Q & A

What is a facial?

A facial is one of the many aesthetic services offered at Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa. The med spa provides many types of facials that can rejuvenate your look by:

• Exfoliating dead skin cells
• Removing impurities
• Treating skin concerns
• Hydrating your skin 

Facials also improve your health by increasing circulation, reducing stress, and boosting your energy and confidence. 

What type of facial is best for me?

When you visit Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa for a facial consultation, Linda or another esthetician spends time talking with you to fully understand your skin concerns and goals. They then evaluate your skin and determines the best facial for you.

Some of the facials available at Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa include:

Forever Ageless Facial

Designed with your skin in mind, this anti-aging facial treatment provides deep hydration to dry or parched skin. The facial is performed with a variety of professional grade products that target fine lines and wrinkles, lifts and firms the skin, providing necessary anti-oxidents. An enzyme mask will exfoliate and refresh your skin for an instant glow.

During the Forever Ageless Facial, Linda or another aethetician will help you relax, as your tension and stress melts away with a massage that includes the face, neck, shoulders and head. 

Clarifying acne facial

The 45-minute clarifying acne facial improves skin clarity, reduces acne blemishes, and soothes redness and inflammation. 

The facial improves your skin and decreases breakouts by reducing excess sebum, removing blackheads and whiteheads, exfoliating dead skin cells, and extracting other impurities. The clarifying acne facial also reduces acne scars and post-acne hyperpigmentation. 

Brightening facial

The brightening facial is a quick 30-minute beauty treatment that removes dead skin and brightens your face with little downtime. This facial is recommended 3-4 weeks after a microneedling, or chemical peel treatment or the same day as your special event.

For this facial, Linda or another aesthetician skips the masking step and helps your skin shed dead skin cells by infusing brightening serums. These serums effectively reduce skin discoloration, redness, and yellowing, leaving you with a brighter and more even skin tone. 

Customized Signature Facial

The customized signature facial features products that unclog pores, exfoliate, and reduce fine lines by hydrating and nourishing your skin. 

The products slow the breakdown of collagen, stimulate cellular growth, increase oxygenation, and facilitate tissue repair to make your skin more radiant.

Laser Genesis

Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment that benefits many skin concerns, including hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, acne, rosacea, large pores, and scars. 

The heat-based laser stimulates your body’s natural healing process to boost collagen growth, resulting in stronger, more youthful-looking skin.  This is a great lunchtime service, with no downtime. 

• Diffuse redness
• Fine lines
• Scars
• Acne Scars
• Activates collagen growth
• Improves skin quality

LimeLight intense pulsed light (IPL) laser

Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa uses the LimeLight IPL laser to treat many skin conditions. The advanced laser works by targeting the deeper layers of your skin with minimal downtime. With the LimeLight IPL laser, Linda treats a larger area, which means your sessions are quicker and results are immediate. Limelight IPL (photofacial) treats the following:

• Pigmented lesions & sun damage
• Vascular Lesions (small blood vessels) and redness
• Freckles
• Rosacea
• Age Spots
• Uneven Skin Texture

What can I expect during a laser treatment consultation?

When you visit Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa for a Skin Rejuvenation treatment consultation, you can expect a comprehensive evaluation. Linda asks detailed questions about your skin concerns and goals. She reviews your medical history and examines your skin.

After your evaluation, Linda talks to you about the rejuvenation treatments best suited to meet your skin needs and beauty goals. She also provides pre-treatment and aftercare instructions.
