Microneedling
Prompt your skin's own collagen for fine lines, texture and acne scarring. Sessions are $349, or $900 for a series of three.
Microneedling uses very fine needles to prompt your skin's own collagen. Talk to Carolina about texture, fine lines or acne scarring, and plan a series that suits your skin.
How microneedling works
Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, uses a pen with very fine needles to make tiny channels in the skin. Your skin responds by starting its own repair and making new collagen and elastin, the proteins behind smooth, firm-feeling skin. People choose it for fine lines, texture, enlarged pores and acne scarring, and as a way to refresh their skin without fillers.
Who it suits
Microneedling can suit many skin types and tones, because it doesn't rely on heat or light. The face is the usual focus, and the neck and chest can be added to a session. If you have active acne, a skin infection or a history of raised scarring, tell Carolina first.
Your appointment
Carolina cleanses your skin, may apply numbing cream, then sets the needle depth for each area with the Collagen P.I.N. pen. Most people describe a light scratching or vibrating feeling. Afterward your skin will feel warm and look pink, a bit like a mild sunburn.
Recovery
Expect redness and tightness for one to three days. Your skin may then feel dry or a little rough as it settles. Follow the aftercare for makeup, sun and skincare, and try not to book a session the day before a big event.
When you'll see results
Collagen takes time to build, so changes appear gradually in the weeks after each session and can keep improving after your series ends. That's why we usually recommend three sessions, spaced a few weeks apart. Results vary from person to person.
Take it further
Add a regenerative serum with microneedling with exosomes, or ask about pairing with a peel for acne scarring. For lines caused by movement, see Botox; for lost volume, see dermal fillers.

Pricing

Texture and enlarged pores
What to know
Start with the texture you notice.
Discuss roughness, visible pores or uneven texture with your provider. Ask what improvement is realistic for your skin and how long to wait before assessing the result.
Acne scarring
What to know
Microneedling paired with a peel.
For acne scarring, we often pair microneedling with a peel. Carolina will look at your skin, talk through what you'd like to change and recommend a plan and number of sessions.
Fine lines and early crepiness
What to know
Explore changes in skin texture.
Fine lines and crepey texture are different from the lines caused by facial movement or changes in volume. Your assessment can help identify which concern you have and which treatment fits.
Stretch marks and body areas
What to know
Discuss the exact area you want treated.
Neck and chest can be added to a facial session. For other areas, ask whether treatment is offered.
Pigmentation, and where it gets complicated
What to know
An assessment for uneven pigmentation.
Dark marks and melasma can have different causes and need different care. Share your pigmentation history and previous reactions so your provider can assess whether microneedling is appropriate.
Neck and chest add-ons
From $50
Add-ons
Add the neck or chest to a facial session.
Neck add-on $50. Chest add-on $75. Carolina will confirm the area and settings at your visit.
The pen we use: Collagen P.I.N.
The device we use
A 36-pin microneedling device.
Every microneedling session at The Wellness Reeset uses the Collagen P.I.N. by Induction Therapies. Its 36-pin cartridge adjusts from 0.1 mm to 3.0 mm deep, so Carolina can set the depth for each area of your face. The cordless pen uses high-frequency vibration for a smoother, more comfortable pass. Expect redness and tightness for one to three days afterward.
Treatment suitability and results vary. A clinical assessment comes first.

What concerns can I discuss?
Common questions involve facial acne scars, fine lines and texture. Your provider can assess your skin and explain whether microneedling is appropriate.
Is microneedling safe for my skin tone?
Microneedling can suit many skin tones because it doesn't rely on heat or light. If you have a history of dark marks after skin treatments, tell Carolina so she can plan your sessions around it.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream may be used to reduce discomfort. Most people describe a light scratching or vibrating feeling. Tell your provider about sensitivities or allergies.
How much recovery should I plan?
Expect redness and tightness for one to three days, and some dryness as your skin settles. Recovery varies, so follow the aftercare provided for makeup, sun exposure and skincare.
When will I see results?
Changes appear gradually as new collagen builds in the weeks after each session, and can keep improving after your series ends. Results vary from person to person.

Can I pay over time?
