MicroNeedling
MicroNeedling is the insertion of very short fine needles into the skin for the purpose of rejuvenation. Dr. Lea Kelley uses a class 2 medical device called a Microneedling pen (electric) which is the most effective way as opposed to a roller or dermastamp.
The premise is simple: create a small wound and the skin will respond with collagen production and new skin cells! Depending on the depth of the needle penetration, this can offer skin rejuvenation levels from the simple enhancement of product absorption to the clinical treatment of scars and wrinkles.
Improve the following conditions:
- Acne scarring
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Loose skin
- Skin texture
- Pore size
- Brown spots
- Stretch marks
- Pigment issues
MicroNeedling allows for 3000% more product absorption!
Dr. Kelley uses holistic herbal topicals (serums). The apple stem cell serum is shown promote facial stem cell rejuvenation by over 80%
Results are seen and felt even after the first treatment. Skin should glow and feel tighter. Maximum results are shown when patients do between 4-6 treatments. One treatment per month.
Results are shown to last between 4-6 years in research, without maintenance.
What is NanoNeedling?
NanoNeedling also uses a class 2 medical grade device that oscillates a tip up and down to stimulate the skin to react just as MicroNeedling except the nanoneedling tip has 81 silicone tips. Nanoneedling only affects the epidermis, treating he upper .15 mm of the skin. The benefits of this serum infused treatment include pigmentation reduction, increased cell turnover, skin rejuvenation and and immediate glow with no downtime. This treatment can be done weekly to exfoliate the skin.

Treatments are gentle.
Hyaluronic acid is used with both procedures. It is all natural and holds 1,000 times it's weight in water. This allows for deep hydration, nourishment and rejuvenation.
MicroNeedling is actually a 2,000 year old time tested treatment originating in ancient china. Emperors who wanted to live forever used this technique to remain youthful.
Other MicroNeedling Data Points
- MicroNeedling creates micro channels in the skin. When those channels are created, the skin's own repair response is triggered to start "healing" and to produce collagen and elastin. This makes the skin tighter and smoother.
- Unlike Microdermabrasion which removes layers of skin; microneedling creates channels in the skin for products to be absorbed and collagen/elastin to be produced.
- Dr. Lea Kelley uses holistic herbal topicals/serums during and after the procedure which are based on Chinese Medicine healing and rejuvenating properties.
