WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING?

Microneedling is a non-surgical, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation therapy using a hand held microneedling medical device. The Microneedling technique creates small channels in the skin, which causes a controlled injury. These channels stimulate elastin and collagen production to help tighten and lift the skin. Microneedling aids in reducing fine wrinkles, stretchmarks, and many types of scars.

WHAT WE DO

Our Medical Providers combine precise microneedling mechanical injury with your skin’s biological healing response to ensure that each Microneedling treatment is safe and effective, with natural, rejuvenated looking results.

During your Microneedling consultation, our Medical Practitioner will provide a thorough history and physical examination assessing your facial skin using 3D imaging and a comprehensive skin analysis to measure skin conditions. We will tailor an individual treatment plan based on your needs and goals.

During your procedure, our Medical Practitioner will cleanse the skin and apply a topical anesthesia numbing cream for comfort. Next, our Medical Practitioner will deliver a controlled microneedling mechanical injury into the deeper layers of the skin based on the intensity selected. Simultaneously, potent ingredients are delivered deep into the microchannels of the skin. During and after treatment, we apply peri-procedure protocols including injectable/topical PRP/PRFM, as well as topical growth factors, polynucleotides, exosomes, or skin boosting peptides GHKCu and NAD+ to expedite the healing process and optimize results. The procedure takes approximately 30-60 minutes.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Some patients experience redness, mild swelling, or pinpoint scabbing for a few days following treatment. Most patients return to normal activities within 1–3 days.
Results develop gradually over several weeks as new collagen forms, with continued improvement up to 3 months. A series of 3 treatments spaced one month apart is typically recommended for optimal results, depending on your skin goals.

Recovery
  • Mild redness and swelling for 1–3 days
  • Possible pinpoint scabbing or dryness
  • Makeup can usually be worn after 24–48 hours
  • Sun protection is essential during healing”
  • Initial improvement within a few weeks
  • Continued collagen remodeling for up to 3 months
  • Enhanced results with PRP, PRFM, and advanced growth factors
  • Typically performed in a series of 3 treatments spaced one month apart
  • Maintenance treatments may be recommended every 6-12 months
  • Safe for multiple areas including face, neck, chest, and body areas
  • Our providers will always review post procedure instructions with you.
  • PRP (platelet rich plasma) and PRFM Therapy (platelet rich fibrin matrix) use concentrated platelets from your own blood to release growth factors that stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, and promote hair growth in areas such as the face, undereyes, scalp, and décolletage.
  • In PRP and PRFM Microneedling, the process begins with a blood draw from your arm which is then spun for 15 minutes in a centrifuge to separate the PRP. Microneedling creates micro channels in the skin, which can effectively carry the PRP into the skin and nourish the cells. Since PRP speeds healing, you can expect a faster recovery than a basic microneedling treatment.
  • We recommend adding PRP injections to your microneedling session for an added “glow factor”. During your microneedling session, we inject some of your PRP into areas of the face where you want brightening and rejuvenation. By directly injecting the PRP into selected areas it promotes the formation of new collagen, fatty tissue and blood vessels, which results in rejuvenated and younger looking skin.

  • Ariessence pure PDGF+ (platelet-derived growth factor) is an advanced regenerative treatment that topically supports tissue regeneration and collagen production to enhance skin rejuvenation, healing, and hair restoration on the face and scalp.
  • Unlike traditional PRP/PRFM, this next generation human platelet growth factor is 300,000 more potent, predictable, and requires no blood draw. We use PDGF topically during Microneedling to stimulate collagen production, boost skin regeneration, and enhance overall skin health.
  • Learn More
  • Topical PDRN (Toskani Lumicen Salmon DNA) delivers regenerative polynucleotides that support cellular repair and stimulate collagen production, helping to improve skin elasticity, hydration, texture, and overall rejuvenation. The addition of PDRN Salmon DNA applied topically during Microneedling boosts luminosity and supports collagen regeneration for glassy, tight, hydrated skin.
  • Exosomes (plant-based) applied topically moisturize, regenerate, and support skin repair. Topical plant-based exosomes enhance Microneedling by accelerating healing and promoting youthful, glowing skin.
  • Topical Peptides (GHK-Cu, NAD+) rejuvenate and repair the skin at a cellular level to boost collagen production and support cellular energy, helping to improve skin firmness, elasticity, and overall resilience.
  • The addition of GHK-Cu and NAD+ applied topically during Microneedling revitalizes the skin, promotes healing, and enhances natural anti-hanging peptides.

I can't recommend skin bio enough! They're a one stop shop for everything you need! Everyone is so sweet, kind, and considerate. They take their time on services and make sure you are fully happy. I go to Cristina for Botox/filler and she's always so incredible! Recently I had a back facial by Chloe and it was the best one I've had. Will for sure be back. 10/10!

I have been going to SkinBio for a few years now and have had nothing but great experiences. The entire team is attentive & caring. I always know exactly what I am getting and have never had any issues. Per Dr. Borhani's recommendation, I recently tried a IV vitamin drip, which I truly believe greatly helped my body get back on track! Thank you!
Mike R.
SkinBio is so knowledgeable and helpful. Cristina explains everything in great details with a full understanding of what treatments would work best for me. The office is absolutely beautiful and stunning! Their staff is so welcoming and professional. They have the best medical esthecians by far! My skin feels and looks great and I'm looking forward to my next appointment!

I had the best experience at Skin Bio with nurse Cristina and nurse Randy. I feel like I was taken care of from the minute I stepped inside. My Botox took 30 minutes from the time I arrived. It was pain-free and my result was perfect. I love coming to skin bio because everyone is so friendly. Thank you again for creating a great experience for me.

A few skin tags had been removed which were bothering me for years; she got it done flawlessly and painlessly. Great place, reasonable prices, amazing service overall. We will be going there again and will be introducing this place to my peeps.
Arsen K.
Anytime I need to turn back the clock with this and little that Cristina knows exactly what I need and I always look better leaving. I can't trust my face to anyone else. She makes me feel at ease and I know she will always do a great job with either Botox or fillers.
Ana J.
NP Cristina is absolutely THE BEST! She made me feel right at home and is highly skilled. I left Skin Bio feeling beautiful!!
Lolly J.
From start to finish, I had the most incredible experience. When you first walk in, you are pleasantly welcomed with a beautiful, clean and welcoming environment. Staff are kind, warm and knowledgeable. I loved the detail that went into my skin consultation and how it directly correlated to the appropriate treatment modalities for my individual skin and goals. Cristina is a gem of a human being and as a clinician, she is skilled and incredibly helpful at assisting patients with navigating all of the options available. Based on her assessment, we decided on a couple of things over the next year. For my first session I did an IPL for unwanted sun spots, texture, fine lines etc and had no pain whatsoever. It was so much better than my last laser at another provider in W. Hollywood. Additionally, I left with an understanding of how to take better care of my skin and had another appointment already booked before leaving. I highly recommend Skin Bio, Cristina and this incredible business. Pricing is up front and competitive and parking is plentiful. I look forward to my next visit!

I just couldn't be happier!!!! Literally just go, go, go to Skin Bio!


I saw Cristina for fillers and let me tell you, her eye for detail and symmetry is impeccable. 10 out of 10 amazing when it comes to results. Doesn't over do it, goes over everything with you before hand, and listens to all your concerns. She is also so friendly and incredibly knowledgeable.


I also did a diamond facial by Melanie and that is simply the best facial I have had in quite some time. She spent a good amount of time perfecting my face and my pores but also, she is so very lovely.


I will absolutely be back again soon for more face and body love!! Totally impressed!

I have had TWO great experiences at Skin Bio - my first was with Cristina for Botox and filler and she did a wonderful job. My migraines have drastically decreased and the work she did looks very natural. It was exactly what I wanted and by far the best work I've ever had done on my face. The second amazing experience I had was with Melanie - she did an acne facial which I haven't had in years but I definitely needed after experiencing some hormonal acne breakouts. She was clearly very experienced with this. She did an amazing job extracting everything from my skin and was also fun to talk to and very personable. She went above and beyond for me, even went over time to make sure she took care of all my skin's needs. I will be recommending everyone I know to go to this spot for whatever they need done and I will definitely be a consistent customer. I am so happy with all the services I've had done here. 10/10 highly recommend.
