Microchanneling

Microchanneling is a procedure that creates thousands of tiny microchannels in your skin to stimulate collagen production. These micro-channels are ideal for absorbing stem cell serum, an innovative technology that promotes collagen and elastin growth. This treatment is clinically proven to increase collagen & elastin production, which increases skin thickness while improving the appearance of wrinkles, uneven skin tone & texture, fine lines, acne & surgical scars, stretch marks, and more.

Discontinue retinol (2% or higher) or tretinoin at least 3 days prior to treatment. For your first treatment, you can expect mild redness and swelling, and a tight, warm sensation for between 4 & 24 hours.

For light anti-aging treatments, 1 to 2 treatments may be sufficient, but for deeper wrinkles & scarring, you may require 4 to 6 treatments to achieve desired results. An interval of 3 to 4 weeks between treatments is typically recommended, and you can see the results 2-3 weeks after your treatment.

You are an ideal candidate for Microchanneling if you have:

• Fine lines or wrinkles,
• Uneven skin texture
• Moderate skin laxity
• Stretch marks
• Atrophic (depressed) acne scars
• Sun damage
• Traumatic scars

You are NOT a suitable candidate for microchanneling if you have any of the conditions listed below.

• You have certain skin diseases, such as eczema or psoriasis
• You have cardiac abnormalities
• You are pregnant
• You have an infection of any type (bacterial, viral, or fungal)
• You have had radiation therapy recently
• You have open wounds
• You have Keloid scars
• You are immunosuppressed
• You have diabetes, hemophilia, and bleeding disorders

After the therapy, your skin will appear pink or red for the first 24 to 48 hours.

Topical numbing is applied first. The procedure should be essentially painless.

The average downtime after a ProCell Microchanneling treatment is 90 minutes, the estimated time it takes for the tiny channels to close. After treatment, there may be a day or two of mild redness.

• Avoid washing your face for the first 6 hours. You can gently wash the treated area with a gentle cleanser and apply moisturizer afterward.
• After the therapy, nothing topical should be applied for at least 90 minutes.
• Do not exfoliate for at least 7 days.
• Avoid direct sunlight for at least 7 days.
• Ensure you have proper sun protection whenever you are out in the sun
• Avoid swimming or jogging in the rain for at least 72 hours.
• Avoid vigorous exercise for the first 72 hours.
• Avoid anti-inflammatory medication pre- and post-treatment.
