ABOUT MICRONEEDLING
-
The Process
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure which utilizes your body’s natural healing process to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, giving the skin a smoother texture and tone, while also making it more receptive to topicals and beneficial nutrients.
-
Benefits
The benefits of microneedling extend into the long-term, as the mechanical process of cell regeneration is not dependent on the chemical changes often used in microdermabrasion and dermal fillers. Microneedling penetrates deeper into the skin, creating small channels which naturally fill in with more coilagen.
-
Progress
After the healing process, this procedure can be repeated until you achieve the results you desire. For most, stunning results will happen over the course of a few sessions, with a few weeks regeneration between treatments.
Studies show that the microneedling process can help improve:
The appearance of scars, fine lines, and wrinkles
Enlarged pores
Hyperpigmentation
Uneven skin tone
Stretch marks
Hair growth
Lasting Improvements
As a kid, I never wanted to go to the doctor nor did I expect to become one.
Something changed when I studied in Kenya and again when immersed in a different lifestyle, language and culture while teaching in Japan.
At the doctor’s office, I was asked about the foods that I had been eating, to take care with seasonal weather changes and to curb my activity to get well. I didn’t get pharmaceuticals but what looked like small packets of herbs.
Wonderful natural solutions to conventional drugs and surgery, my path to holistic medicine began. I soon discovered naturopathic medicine, Chinese medicine, acupuncture and CranioSacral Therapy.
These provided the “outside of the box” approach to medicine that I was looking for - whole body wellness.
Practicing integrative health care in the Pacific Northwest for more than 15 years, I have witnessed the benefits of natural medicine. Travel and curiosity keeps me learning new things and meeting people across the globe. Please join me on your journey to better health today!
