The Ultimate Guide to Microneedling with Advanced Serums

Introduction to Microneedling

As an experienced professional in the aesthetics industry, I’ve closely observed and participated in the evolution of skin rejuvenation treatments.

Among these, microneedling has emerged as a standout technique, gaining popularity for its effectiveness and minimal downtime.

In this comprehensive guide, I’ll share everything you need to know about microneedling, drawing from a wealth of experience and knowledge.

Whether you’re new to the concept of microneedling or looking to deepen your understanding, this article is designed to provide a clear, professional, yet casually approachable insight into what microneedling entails.

Understanding Microneedling and How It Works

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses a device with tiny needles to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface.
The purpose is to stimulate the body’s natural healing process and promote collagen production, leading to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

The Microneedling Process

During the procedure, the device’s tiny needles create small punctures in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. This increases collagen and elastin production, improving the skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Next a microneedling serum based on the correction your skin needs is applied. After extensive research we have selected the Best Serums for Microneedling to achieve maximum results.

What is a Bio-Revitalization Facial? And why do I need it?

What is a Bio-Revitalization Facial? And why do I need it? AgingGracefully1200x628

Bio-revitalization facials are one of the most beneficial ways to achieve quick, effective results for younger-looking skin.

By delivering essential nutrients that diminish as we age into your skin, this treatment plays a role in restoring your skin to a more youthful condition and preventing skin aging.

Keeping your skin youthful-looking requires a plan for preventing, repairing, and maintaining your skin condition.

If you’re in the 25-35 age group you may just be noticing fine lines around your eyes and forehead.

If you’re in the 40+ age group, you’re lines and wrinkles are more defined, and you’ll see some laxity in your lower face and aoverall skin condition.

Or, if you waited until you are in the 50+ age group and haven’t had any treatments, wrinkles, sun damage, and loose skin are more visible.

What is a Bio-revitalization treatment?

A Bio-Reviationtion Facial is delivering important nutrients such as Exosomes, Advanced Serums or PRP with a microneedling or RF Microneedling device such as Scarlet RF or Morpheus8.

Bio-revitalization serums penetrate deep into the tissue without damaging the epidermis (top layer of the skin) – so there is no downtime and minimal, if any, discomfort!

Collagen and Elastin reside in the dermal level of your skin. These nutrients help restore elements that have been lost as we age. There are many treatment options available to rebuild collagen I and collagen III levels.

The answer to keeping great skin is treatments that keep your collagen and elastin at peak levels, that’s where bio-revitalization facials can help.

Bio-Revitalization Facials applied with microneedling and potent serums address several aesthetic issues.

  • Overall skin improvement: Dehydrated skin, fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin and sun damage are some of the areas you will see improvement in.
  • You will have glowing, younger-looking skin immediately after your treatment and it will then continue to improve.
  • Bio-Revitalization serums have potent ingredients designed to reconnect the cellular structure and communication levels of your skin.

Some products include a high-strength TCA agent but without the associated side effects such as discomfort, peeling, and downtime.

The ingredients are designed to:

1. Stimulate the growth of fibroblasts in the skin, promotes regeneration, and at the same time has an anti-inflammatory effect. Wonderful for post a laser or microneedling treatment.

2. It destroys the pathogenic bacteria that cause acne and increases the elasticity of the dermis. It also effectively cleans skin fat, cosmetic residue, and dirt particles accumulated in the pores.

3. Low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide promote wound healing, help remodel the extracellular matrix, and regulate inflammation. Contains enzymes that speed healing, remodel cells, and relieve irritation and inflammation.

3. Evens complexion with Kojic acid as an effective skin-whitener and depigmenting agent. It plays an important role in inhibiting the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation that can occur in susceptible individuals.

Bio-stimulation facials continue to build collagen from the inside out. You can opt for a single treatment to provide instant hydration, firming and toning benefits – perfect for an event or anywhere you’ll be in alot of photos!

Or, for longer-lasting results, a series of 4-6 sessions are recommended.

A maintenance treatment can be done every 2-6 months depending on age and severity of the damaged skin.

The treatment is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, and can be applied all year long-even in the summer months!

Other areas besides the face can also be treated. Scars, stretch marks, firming of the neck, chest, and arms can also be treated.

Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa specializes in innovative treatments for the face and body in the Boston area.

What is Exilis Ultra?

If you want to improve the contour of your body without invasive surgical procedures, you should consider an Exilis Ultra skin tightening treatment at Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa. This treatment is a suitable choice for non-invasive fat removal and skin tightening.

What is an Exilis Ultra Treatment Like?

An Exilis skin tightening procedure is carried out in a series of sessions. While it depends on your goals and the condition of your skin, it typically requires four to six treatment sessions that take place two to four weeks apart.

A monopolar radio-frequency device warms the skin to spark collagen production and remove unwanted fat. During an Exilis Ultra session, radio-frequency energy moves from the device to the skin, which warms the skin to 42 to 44 degrees Celsius. This causes collagen to go through structural changes. After a series of sessions, individuals start to see improvements in skin laxity and texture, and it can even help minimize wrinkles. The treatment is simple, and you won’t experience any pain. There isn’t a need for numbing cream or pain medication, and it only takes about 20-30 minutes to complete an Exilis Ultra session.

Common Treatment Areas

Exilis has been cleared by the FDA for skin toning and firming on areas of the body and face. It can improve the appearance of the neck and treat jowls by reducing fat deposits under the chin. A few common treatment areas on the body include the arms, abdomen, knees, and thighs.

Are You a Good Candidate for Exilis Ultra Skin Tightening?

Individuals with good skin elasticity will benefit from this treatment. If you have poor skin texture, it may take more sessions to reach your desired look. Exilis Ultra is a ideal option if you want to mildly enhance the contour of your body without surgery.

Does Exilis Ultra Require Multiple Sessions?

Although you’ll see noticeable results within a few weeks to a month after treatment, it’s suggested to have a touch-up treatment after about six months to a year to maintain the effects of the initial treatment.

Schedule a Consultation

If you have lax skin on your face or body that doesn’t seem to go away even with exercise, Exilis Ultra could be right for you. Contact us today to schedule a consultation. We welcome the opportunity to help you achieve your desired aesthetic with this cutting-edge skin tightening treatment.

RF Microneedling vs Traditional Microneedling

What’s the difference between Microneedling and RF Microneedling?

Microneedling is a skin treatment that’s been in use for decades. Numerous patients have found that this procedure can help them with various skin conditions. There is a recent advancement to microneedling technology that involves radiofrequency (RF).

Now that RF microneedling is on the market, there are more options available to patients. This can make it confusing to find the right one for you. Learn more about the differences between the treatments with our team. At Cosmetic Laser Solutions, we offer various skin treatments, including microneedling, to help our patients achieve beautiful skin. 

What Is Traditional Microneedling?

Microneedling is also called collagen induction therapy. It uses rollers, stamps, or pens that are covered in small, fine needles. The needles are rolled over or applied to the face to induce micro-injuries, also known as channels. These channels stimulate the skin to initiate the natural healing process. The healing process makes the skin begin to create more collagen and elastin and stimulates more cellular turnover. This process is what rejuvenates the skin. The skin becomes smoother, firmer, and stronger from the inside out.

What Is RF Microneedling?

RF microneedling is a relatively new procedure. It builds upon the benefits that traditional microneedling provides and adds another dimension to it. The small needles that are used not only create channels in the skin, but they are also reaching deeper layers by delivering radio-frequency energy at the same time.

The radio-frequency energy heats the deeper layers of the skin. This causes the collagen and underlying cells to tighten and contract. Having the addition of this heating gives patients results that are more immediate and dramatic than they would be able to attain with the traditional method.

Is RF Microneedling For You?

This procedure can be used safely for patients of a wide array of skin complexions and skin types. It has been used to treat and improve several skin issues and conditions, including:

  • Scars from acne and/or chickenpox on the face
  • Skin laxity that is mild-to-moderate in severity
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin texture and tone

Why Choose RF Microneedling?

Patients choose this procedure because it has benefits such as:

  • Dramatic, faster results
  • Results that rival more invasive procedures like ablative laser
  • More comfortable than other procedures
  • Less downtime afterward; you may return to normal activities within 24 hours
  • More effective and uses fewer treatments than other skin rejuvenation options. 

Should You Add PRP To Your RF Microneedling?

Some providers offer PRP injections to bolster and support the results of RF microneedling. PRP injections are made from a sample of the patient’s blood. The platelets in the blood contain things like growth factors which are beneficial in the skin’s healing process and can improve the final results. Platelets help with cell regeneration, which speeds up the healing process. The PRP would be given after the RF microneedling session if you choose to have it.

What Can Help You Suppress Hunger & More!

The #1 Nutrient You Must Eat and the 7 Best Ways To Get It

What Can Help You Suppress Hunger & More! avocado-549x349-1

Let’s get right to the point. It’s Fiber.

For fast, lasting fat loss and lots more, dietary fiber reigns supreme.

Too bad we’re not getting nearly enough.

One study titled “Trends in dietary fiber intake in the United States, 1999-2008,” published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics , found the average person gets about 15 grams of fiber a day, well below the 25-38 grams recommended adequate intake for adults.

Among its numerous benefits, fiber can help you lose weight. That’s because it helps slow down stomach emptying so you feel fuller longer.

Studies show fiber also suppresses your hunger hormone ghrelin and stabilizes blood sugar and insulin levels. It fills you up faster for fewer calories.

Those are among the reasons I call fiber a magic bullet for fast, lasting fat loss. A recent study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine supports my theory.

Researchers asked 240 participants to either eat fewer calories and follow the American Heart Association’s diet or simply get more dietary fiber.

One year later, the fiber folks lost an average of 4.6 pounds , whereas the reduced-calorie group lost an average of six pounds. Impressive, considering the fiber group made no other dietary modifications.

To get fast, lasting fat loss and fiber’s other benefits, I want you to get 50 grams of fiber daily. Yes, 50.

Please don’t do this all at once. Gradually increase your intake five grams a week until you’ve met that quota. I’ve got seven easy ways to easily increase fiber intake:

  1. Non-starchy veggies. Leafy and cruciferous greens are nutrient and fiber powerhouses. Whether steamed, sautéed, or raw in salads, veggies definitely fall into the “more is better” category.
  2. Berries . Every one of these low-sugar impact fruits are high in fiber, but raspberries reign supreme with eight grams of fiber per cup.
  3. Avocado. Along with heart-healthy monounsaturated fat and hard-to-get fat-soluble nutrients like vitamins K and E, one cup of avocado provides an impressive 10 grams – that’s 40 percent – of your day’s fiber intake. Plus it makes everything so much more delicious.
  4. Slow roasted or dehydrated almonds. Loaded with protein, healthy fats, and hard-to-get nutrients like magnesium, a quarter-cup of slow-roasted or dehydrated almonds provides three grams of fiber. Almond butter provides those same benefits. Smear a little bit on some celery for a decadent fiber wallop!
  5. Lentils. Most legumes are fiber-packed, but I especially love lentils because they’re so darn versatile and delicious. In his book The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth , Dr. Jonny Bowden notes one cup of lentils packs a whopping 16 grams, which officially makes them a fiber heavyweight.
  6. Freshly ground flaxseeds. Besides being an excellent source of the omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), flaxseed is rich in anti-cancer lignans, and two tablespoons provides almost four grams of fiber.
  7. Extra Fiber. Even the most well intended, health-minded folks occasionally struggle to meet their 50-gram daily fiber quota. That’s why I never travel without Extra Fiber , a top-of-the-line powder that combines 12 different types of fiber to mimic what you get in high-fiber whole foods. Every serving contains an impressive four grams of fiber and mixes well into shakes, water, or any preferred beverage.

A protein shake becomes my favorite way to increase fiber intake, which provides you steady, sustained energy all morning. Adding avocado, frozen raspberries, raw kale (you won’t taste it), and freshly ground flaxseed or Extra Fiber to my Paleo – or plant-based protein powder provides about 15 – 20 grams of fiber. Do one of these once or twice daily and you’ve almost hit your 50-gram quota.

OK everybody. Let’s head out to the supermarket.

No. The Ultra Femme 360 Vagina Rejuvenation treatment entails a non-invasive, no downtime and pain-free procedure for the female vaginal area. The radio frequency which gives heat to the tissues is much similar to warm sensations from hot stone massage. And, vaginal rejuvenation has no age limit and women of all ages can have this pain-free procedure performed.

How to Look Young Forever

Everyone likes to appear younger than they are. To accomplish this, there are various things you can do that aid in your health and appearance. At Cosmetic Laser Solutions, we help our patients to look and feel great through our various skin rejuvenation treatments and wellness programs.

Hydrate And Hydrate More

It is also very important to drink a lot of water. Your water intake depends heavily on your current health, activity level, age, and more. Generally speaking, a healthy person could consume about 2 gallons of water. However, you don’t have to drink it all – some fruits and vegetables have enough water in them to count towards your daily intake! Skin cells require adequate hydration in order for them to stay healthy and help you look younger.

Exercise

Physical activity is always recommended since it is good at keeping your mind and body healthy. It boosts the flow of blood and helps transport the nutrients and oxygen throughout the body and skin, making it look more youthful. Exercise is also helpful with brain function and can actually add years to your life.

Add Supplements To Your Life

Nutritional supplements are always a good idea for improved health. Since both environment and biological factors can have an impact on the health and aging of skin, taking supplements is one way to add nutrients back into your body that otherwise may have been missing from your diet. Not only are supplements good for the skin, but they also make you feel better, and certain ones can help replenish the cells in your body.

De-Stress

Stress is a horrible thing for not just your mind, but also your body. Stress can deplete the body of essential nutrients, and cause aging to excelerate. It is important to take the time to relax in life and learn how to handle things if they start getting too stressful. Maybe take up some thing such as yoga or meditation, or even just taking a moment to extract yourself from the hustle and bustle of life.

Seek Help

Sometimes you might need a little extra help getting your appearance back on track. In those cases, why not go to someone who really knows what they are doing? Here as Cosmetic Laser Solutions, we have many non-invasive procedures that can help with your appearance. To get started on a customized treatment, contact our office today!

Body Contouring – Top 5 Questions Answered By Experts

Body contouring is a cosmetic procedure that alters the shape of your body. The goal is to eliminate excess fat from targeted areas of the body like arms, thighs, abdomen and love handles.

Who is a candidate for body contouring?

Anyone who wants a better body shape and wants to reduce body fat in a targeted “problem” area may opt for body contouring. Body contouring with ultrasound technology helps people re- shape their abdomen, thighs, arms – virtually any area- by eliminating excessive fat. This is an excellent option for people struggling with stubborn pockets of fat which are impossible to lose with exercise or dieting.

What is the best treatment for body contouring?

The most common methods for body contouring include liposuction and fat freezing techniques. However the experts at Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa recommend UltraShape Power. A laser fat removal technique which is painless and non-invasive. UltraShape Power helps you get long lasting results by eliminating fat cell in the outer layer or subcutaneous layer of fat -which happens to be the most difficult to lose by exercising and diet. This treatment is more effective than dieting as it destroys fat cells – dieting purges fat from a cell, but the cell remains intact.

UltraShape Power is capable of ridding the body of up to thirty two percent of fat – which is the highest for any non – surgical procedure. What’s more, there is almost no downtime for the patient!

How does UltraShape Power treatment work?

For body contouring, UltraShape Power uses ultrasound technology which ruptures the fat cells in your body. Once the contents of the broken down cell are removed, you can see a reduction in body fat volume and enjoy an improved body shape. Results can take up to 90 days to complete.

On an average people need three laser fat removal sessions for best results. Our experts recommend scheduling the sessions two weeks apart to allow the body to clear the fat from your system.

Are body contouring procedures painful? What about side effects?

Absolutely not! Laser fat removal treatments utilizing UltraShape Power are painless and non-surgical. It is a treatment designed to target fat deposited in different sections of the body without surgery. There is no pain or downtime.

Laser treatments for body contouring have no side effects at all. In fact surgical treatments like liposuction have often shown side effects such as lumping, bruising, shelving and soreness. However ultrasound laser treatments have shown no such side effects because the use of 3D mapping helps deliver energy uniformly into the body. It also helps to reduce any irregularities or asymmetry due to unnatural weight loss.

Who should not have Laser Fat Removal?

  • Patients with a pacemaker or other electromagnetic implanted devices.
  • Pregnant and breast feeding and women who have an anticipated pregnancy at the time of the treatment.
  • People with Hepatitis and other liver disorders
  • People taking medication to aid metabolism
  • People with a history of poor wound healing.

Ninety four percent of the patients who opted for laser fat removal through UltraShape Power have reported immense satisfaction with the results of the procedure. Out of all laser treatments, UltraShape Power at Cosmetic Laser Solutions MedSpa has shown the highest removal of fat volume at thirty two percent. It may be used to target small pockets of stubborn fat like upper arms or love handles. It may also be used to target larger areas of the body such as abdomen or thighs.
