3-to 6 sessions are required. A number of sessions based upon doctors exam factoring age and severity of skin damage. Microneedling can be only scheduled once a month. Each session includes in addition to microneedling complementary acupuncture treatment and B12 injection.

Microneedling effectively treats fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, improves skin texture and color, and dramatically enhances effectiveness of skincare products. Visible results begin on the first day and continue for weeks afterward. As collagen levels continue to build up, your skin becomes more luminous and complexion more even.

Dr. Tatyana is uniquely qualified to perform Microneedling due to their in-depth knowledge of facial anatomy and physiology, meridian energy flow. Combining this ancient medicine with modern technology enhances health and beauty from the inside out. Body acupuncture address the internal causes of aging and organ imbalances, which often appear on the face. Relaxing, restorative acupuncture treatments will be combined with microneedling, drastically enhancing the effects.

Microneedling is an alternative to injections and surgery to address skin conditions such as:
-Fine Line and deep wrinkles
- Crows feet and lip wrinkles es and deep wrinkles
- Acne (not active and inflamed)
- Scars (not keloids)
- Skin with a lack of turgor and elasticity
- Enlarged Pores
- Dark spots – Melasma
- Uneven texture of the skin
- Stretch marks
- Hair restoration
- Hair on brows enhancement

How does it work -
The needles create tiny Micro-channels on the surface of the skin(epidermis). The micro-channels stimulate a healing response in the skin, which increases the production of both collagen and elastin. Having more collagen and elastin causes the skin to become firmer, reduces scars gradually, and smooths wrinkles over time. Can be performed on the face, neck, scalp, stomach, thighs, arms, hands, elbows, knees. Medical Microneedling is enhanced with laboratory-created serums, hyaluronic acid, peptides, vitamins, plant-based stem cells, collagen, elastin. All these substances will enhance the desired result.
