Skin Health

Microneedling works by creating tiny, controlled punctures in your skin which stimulate your body’s own natural healing process. Using an incredibly fine microneedle, the process stimulates your body’s own repair mechanisms. At EVER Medical microneedling is an effective way to treat scar tissue in a way that leaves the underlying structure of your skin intact and enhances skin health.

WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING?

Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) is a treatment method that uses tiny needles to puncture the skin to a certain depth. These controlled injuries trigger the body’s production of collagen. The collagen fills the holes made by the needles, resulting in healthier, younger-looking skin. Microneedling has been around for over a century.

The first recorded use was in 1905 by a German dermatologist. The device relied on burs used in dentistry of various sizes, mounted on motor-driven flexible cord equipment. There is even some evidence that a form of microneedling was used in ancient China. The procedure we know today as microneedling was pioneered in Canada in the late 1990s. It has become a gentle and versatile treatment for reducing the signs of aging and the appearance of scars, including those caused by acne. We cannot halt the process of time, but we can certainly take advantage of treatments that can make us look our best. Microneedling is a safe, effective, and quick procedure that helps address general scarring as well as the general texture and tone of your skin.

MICRONEEDLING WITH PLATELET-
RICH PLASMA (PRP)

Also known as a “vampire facial”, microneedling with platelet-rich plasma has been shown to augment the effectiveness of microneedling through the addition of the healing properties of your own blood. The microneedling with PRP process is similar to traditional microneedling, only with the addition of platelet-rich plasma to the treatment area. PRP is harvested from your body by taking a small vial of blood and purifying it in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. That PRP is then applied to the treatment area during the microneedling procedure. Generally, patients who choose to add PRP to their microneedling experience a faster recovery and more noticeable results. During your consultation for microneedling skincare specialists at EVER Medical will discuss adding PRP to your procedure.

DERMAPLANING

GET A HEALTHY, GLOWING FACE

Featured in various beauty publications over the years, dermaplaning has made a name for itself as a quick and simple way to achieve youthful-looking skin. Using only the deft hands of a dermatological professional and a special tool, patients have raved about its ability to smooth out wrinkled skin and reduce the appearance of scars with this minimally invasive procedure.

Dermaplaning involves the professional taking their uniquely specialized exfoliating blade to remove the top layers of dull or damaged skin, revealing the newer, fresher skin beneath.

By gently scraping away the dead cells, unwanted hair, and blemish-causing toxins, patients see a face that looks and feels smoother and brighter just minutes after a treatment. Your skincare professionals at EVER Medical will use a manual exfoliating blade or an electronic one, depending on your skin’s needs. During your initial consultation for dermaplaning we will work with you to determine which method would work best for your skin.
