Microneedling
Collagen induction therapy
Is Your Skin Not Responding
Like It Used To?
Acne Scars
that keep lingering
Fine Lines
that are settling in
that makeup won’t smooth
Texture
Skin
that feels thinner or less firm
Pigmentation
that won’t fade
Stretch Marks
that affects confidence
This is not a quick fix.
This is structural skin remodeling.
Microneedling stimulates your body’s natural healing response by creating controlled micro-channels in the skin.
This triggers collagen and elastin production, the structural proteins responsible for firmness, smoothness, and resilience.
How It Works
A medical-grade device creates precise micro-injuries in the skin.
Your body responds by:
Producing new collagen
Increasing elastin
Improving blood flow
Accelerating cellular repair
Results build gradually as your skin strengthens itself from within.

A daily dark spot corrector which targets visible skin discoloration for brighter, more even-looking skin.
Everyday elements—including UV exposure, prescription drugs, and some professional treatments—can trigger production of melanin in the skin’s lowest epidermal layers. This excess melanin rises to the surface of the skin, causing visible skin discoloration. Discoloration can manifest in a range of ways, including post-acne marks and stubborn brown patches on the cheekbones, forehead, and upper lip.
Discoloration Defense is the latest-generation dark spot corrector, using a combination of potent and proven anti-discoloration ingredients—including new tranexamic acid—to address key types of skin discoloration.
What People Are Saying
“Subtle Enhancements is exceptionally thoughtful and provided me with some valuable facial care tips.
Microneedling with them was super relaxing and left my skin very clean and smooth. The clinic itself has a warm and welcoming environment that made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. Highly recommend!
— Current Patient
“I have darker South Asian skin and experienced no hyperpigmentation.
I had an excellent microneedling experience at Subtle Enhancements. They explained the procedure thoroughly. Numbing was applied to ensure minimal discomfort, and they paid special attention to the problem areas I wanted treated. The recovery process was also straightforward, thanks to their detailed advice. It’s only been a week but there is visible improvement in my complexion.
This is my second treatment at SE and both experiences were top notch. Highly recommend for your skincare needs.”
— Current Patient
“Whatever numbing cream they use there is amazing and I felt basically nothing and was comfortable the whole time.
I went to Subtle Enhancements for microneedling and was very very happy with the results and whole experience. I will definitely be back!

Your microneedling treatment will begin with an application of prescription-strength topical numbing for 15-20 minutes. After, we will cleanse using our gentle, medical-grade cleanser, followed by the antimicrobial Hale Derma Spray.
Depending on your choice of treatment, we’ll then begin the microneedling treatment with either Hyaluronic acid, PRP, or Exosomes. We pass over the same area three times in different directions. Typically clients rate the treatment a 3/10 on the pain scale. It's totally tolerable!
You'll be booked with us for an hour but the actual microneedling portion only takes about 15 minutes to complete the whole face!
Then depending on your treatment choice we make finish with a cooling mask or LED therapy to help reduce redness and soothe the skin.

Typically for minor skin concerns, microneedling requires a series of 3 treatments, spaced one month apart. For deeper skin concerns and significant scarring up to 6 sessions may be required.
After you finish your series of sessions, you don't have to repeat the series again. You'll just need one maintence session every 6-9 months to keep up with the collagen stimulation!

Yes, we recommended the boosted microneedling with platelet-rich plasma. You may also want to consider a subcision treatment that goes deep into the skin to break up tethered scarring reducing the pulling down in the middle of your scars.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) microneedling, also known as the "vampire facial," is a cosmetic procedure that combines the benefits of microneedling with the regenerative properties of PRP taken from your blood. PRP is known for its ultra healing properties and improves the skin's structural integrity, reduces inflammation and redness of scars, and helps replace damaged cells with healthy new cells.

Exosomes are tiny, naturally occurring vesicles released by cells that play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication. They are derived from mesenchymal stem cells (human fat cells). Don't worry these cells are not able to carry diseases!
Exosomes are packed with beneficial molecules such as proteins, lipids, and genetic material. These molecules can influence various cellular processes like the transfer of genetic information and proteins from one cell to another helps to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote overall cellular health. So basically, it tells a mature cell to age like a younger cell would. How cool!
When applied to the skin, exosomes promote collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. The science behind exosome therapy lies in their potent growth factors and signaling molecules, which stimulate the skin's natural healing processes. This treatment is minimally invasive, delivering impressive results with little to no downtime, making it an excellent option for those seeking a youthful and radiant complexion.

This is the perfect combination to use post-microneedling with exosomes! LED therapy stimulates cellular activity, promoting faster healing of the micro-injuries created during microneedling. LED can accelerate the skin's natural repair process, reducing downtime and minimizing post-treatment redness and swelling.
LED light therapy is also known for boosting the collagen synthesis post-microneedling creating greater and more longterm results!
