I perform Advanced Collagen Induction using a Linear Stamping Technique — a precision method that creates vertical, clean, consistent micro-channels in the skin. Traditional microneedling devices glide across the skin, which can pull and tear tissue. My approach eliminates that entirely, producing significantly less inflammation, dramatically reduced discomfort, and virtually no downtime. Most clients are back to normal within 60–90 minutes.
Each session is paired with a targeted skin booster infusion — delivered directly into the freshly opened channels for maximum absorption and accelerated results.
Key Benefits
- Dramatically reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and expression lines
- Refines skin texture and evens skin tone
- Visibly improves elasticity and firmness
- Supports the look and feel of firmer, more elastic skin over time
- Supports a healthy, lasting glow
- Addresses discoloration, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and early signs of aging
Procell vs. Microneedling vs. RF
People often ask which to choose. Here is the honest answer — both are valid, for different bodies.
What I Offer
Procell Microchanneling
- · Ultra-fine filaments — thinner than a human hair, less trauma to the skin barrier
- · No heat, no radiofrequency — regeneration without thermal stress to the skin
- · Targeted skin boosters delivered into the channels during the session (booster type varies per client)
- · Mild redness for 1–24 hours — minimal downtime, makeup-ready next day
- · Best for: sensitive skin, prevention-focused clients, anyone wanting regeneration without aggression
Elsewhere in the Market
Microneedling / RF (Morpheus8, Vivace)
- · Traditional needles — variable depth, more inflammation
- · RF heat in some devices — deeper thermal effect, more recovery
- · No skin-booster serum built into the protocol
- · 1–3 days of recovery — pinpoint bleeding common
- · Best for: deep scar revision, aggressive collagen response, those comfortable with downtime
Procell is for the person who wants regeneration delivered with finesse, not force.
Who This Is For
- Comprehensive skin rejuvenation
- Fine lines, wrinkles, and expression lines
- Hyperpigmentation, age spots, and sun damage
- Acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks
- Enlarged pores and dull skin
Please note: If you have a history of cold sores, let me know before booking — I may recommend an antiviral prior to treatment to ensure a safe recovery.
What to Expect
A numbing cream is applied at the start of your session to ensure comfort. After your first treatment, expect mild redness and a tight sensation similar to a mild sunburn for 1–24 hours. Some clients experience minor redness for up to 48 hours — easily covered with a quality mineral powder.
For best results, a series of 6 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart is recommended.
Possible Side Effects
Temporary redness, minor scabbing as the skin renews. Normal signs of the skin's regenerative process at work.
This Treatment Is Not Suitable If You:
- Have active skin diseases (eczema, psoriasis, active breakouts)
- Have cardiac abnormalities or are immunosuppressed
- Are pregnant or nursing
- Have an active infection of any type (bacterial, viral, or fungal)
- Are prone to keloid scarring
- Have diabetes, hemophilia, or other bleeding disorders

Pre-Treatment Care
Before Your Session
- Advanced Treatments: Injectables, fillers, waxing, electrolysis, and laser treatments must be avoided for at least 2 weeks prior.
- Retinols: Discontinue all retinols and vitamin A derivatives for 1 week before your session. Discontinue AHAs and BHAs 1 week prior.
- Medications: Do not consume anti-inflammatory medications (Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Motrin) or blood thinners for 48–72 hours before your appointment — these increase bruising and suppress the natural inflammatory response needed for results.
- Alcohol & Caffeine: Avoid alcohol the day before and limit caffeine the day of your appointment.
- Face Prep: Arrive with a completely clean face — no makeup, including mascara. Notify me immediately if you have active breakouts, cold sores, or open skin.
- Sun Exposure: Do not come with an active sunburn. Sun-damaged treatment areas will result in a forfeited appointment.
- Hydration: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to and following your treatment.
Post-Treatment Care
After Your Session
- Activity & Sweat: No exercising for the first 24 hours. Avoid gym environments and heavy sweating for 72 hours to prevent infection and irritation.
- Heat & Water: No swimming, hot tubs, steam rooms, or saunas for 72 hours post-treatment.
- Active Skincare: For at least 3 days, do not use AHAs, BHAs, Retin-A, Retinol, or high-potency Vitamin C. Stick to a gentle, hydrating regimen.
- Sun Protection: Avoid direct sunlight for 7 days. Apply SPF 30+ daily for the next 2 weeks. Strictly no tanning beds.
- Exfoliation: Do not manually or chemically exfoliate for at least 7 days.
- Managing Dryness: Trans-epidermal water loss is common and may leave your skin feeling dry or tight for the first week. Moisturize frequently — the more hydrated you keep the skin, the better your results will be.
- Maintenance: Return for your follow-up treatment every 2–4 weeks to maintain collagen production.
