Microneedling

Acne scars, uneven texture, fine lines, and wrinkles are a concern for many of us! Boss Gal Beauty Bar offers several treatments to promote smooth skin, one of which is Microneedling. We offer both traditional microneedling for smoother, firmer skin and Radiofrequency Microneedling for acne scars and wrinkles.

TRADITIONAL MICRONEEDLING

RADIOFREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING

Traditional Microneedling

Traditional Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin-rejuvenation therapy that is also called collagen induction therapy. This procedure stimulates the production of collagen and generates new skin tissue. This makes the skin smoother, firmer and improves the tone and texture.

Best results are seen when completing a series of 3 treatments that are spaced 4 weeks apart.

This procedure is great for people who suffer with acne scars (including ice pick scars), sun damage, uneven skin tone, large pores, post inflammatory pigmentation and skin laxity.

At Boss Gal, all traditional microneedling procedures are performed by a highly-trained medical provider to ensure you are getting the best result and safest treatment.

The treatment can be done if you’re having an active breakout as your medical provider will avoid those areas. If you are having a large breakout, it is recommended to wait until you get your acne more under control to do this procedure.

We’re proud to be one of the few medical spas in Columbus, Ohio that uses SkinPen by Bellus Medical, the first microneedling device cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

DOES MICRONEEDLING HURT?

Most people rate the procedure as a 3 out of 10 on a pain scale (0 being no pain, 10 being extreme pain). We use topical numbing prior to the microneedling to make it as comfortable as possible.

WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS IMMEDIATELY AFTER TREATMENT?

Immediately after your SkinPen procedure you will experience redness, pinpoint bleeding, minimal swelling and you may feel like you have a mild sunburn. All of these effects are a normal response post procedure. This is considered a minimal downtime procedure, you may resume normal daily activity the following day and any residual redness may be covered with makeup.

Radiofrequency Microneedling

Radiofrequency Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that uses tiny needles and radiofrequency waves to rejuvenate your facial skin. The treatment is a form of controlled injury where the damage stimulates the growth of healthy new skin, which can benefit common skin issues like acne scars and wrinkles.

WHAT IS RADIOFREQUENCY?

Radiofrequency, or RF for short, is an energy that when delivered beneath the skin, causes an increased collagen stimulation and has a skin tightening effect.

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE LIKE?

We begin by numbing the area (face and neck). Once numb, the microneedling handpiece is used to treat each area of the face. The device has tiny gold-plated needles that are inserted into the skin. We make three passes on each area of the face and neck, varying the depth of the needles based on each area. We recommend a series of 3 treatments spaced 1 month apart for best results. You will notice an immediate affect from the treatment but your body will continue with its “supercharged” collagen production for the next 8-12 weeks following the procedure.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER THE TREATMENT?

After the treatment, you will be red and the area will feel like you have a sunburn. Good news though! At Boss Gal, we offer a complimentary post-treatment cooling mask. The Microcurrent Dual Face Mask system by Franz Skincare is the most innovative sheet mask available today. Patented Tissue X™ technology in a dry mask is placed over a wet mask rich in antioxidants, vitamins and moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties. The ion induced current delivers the skin soothing ingredients deeper into the skin to eliminate redness and promote healing.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO ONCE I GO HOME?

The redness will subside after a few hours. You may have some swelling and your skin will likely feel tight. This is normal. It is best to not apply make up for 24 hours. Avoid active skincare products that contain glycolic acid or retinol (vitamin A) for 7 days. Wear at least SPF 30 and avoid direct sun exposure for the next 7 days.
