How the procedure works
Cosmetic microneedling uses very shallow needles (0.2 to 0.4 mm) to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. Those micro-injuries prompt local release of growth factors and cellular signalling that support cell turnover and surface renewal, improving texture without deep tissue trauma or aggressive ablation.
Because the needle depth is deliberately shallow, the treatment prioritizes cellular communication rather than aggressive resurfacing. The process encourages repair mechanisms without deep penetration, a key reason this approach is chosen for sensitive or problematic skin types in our Scottsdale practice.
What's included in session
Your Microneedling Facial includes a customized targeted booster serum chosen for your goals, an Über Peel that is safe to use with microneedling, a 10-minute soothing mask after the procedure, and 30 minutes of red LED therapy to aid recovery. A take-home post-care kit supports healing after you leave the studio.
Every appointment begins with a 30–60 minute consultation to review skin history and goals. The full service duration is 105 MINUTES and the price is $298. Many local clients schedule treatments around morning hikes, golf tee times, or school drop-off windows for convenience.
Aftercare and local considerations
Because micro-channels briefly increase ingredient absorption and skin sensitivity, post-treatment care focuses on hydration and protection. The included LED therapy and soothing mask help calm skin immediately, while the post-care kit provides essentials to support recovery. Avoiding unprotected sun and harsh topical agents during the initial healing phase reduces irritation risk.
Scottsdale’s hot desert climate and outdoor lifestyle affect timing and aftercare choices. Plan treatments away from heavy sun exposure or resort events when possible. Our clinic’s location near McDowell Mountain Ranch and off Loop 101 makes it easy to schedule around hikes, golf, and commuting routines.
