Stephanie was compensated by Studio Skin & Sculpt with a complimentary micro-needling session. But her opinions on the treatment are her own.
Remember that fresh glow that you used to just naturally have on your face years ago? I honestly thought my face began looking drab just due to the sheer exhaustion that comes with balancing my life as a working mom. Turns out as we age, we naturally start to lose collagen which is what helps give off that glowing look. So, regardless of how much we want to blame it on the “life juggling,” the truth is, the real culprit is aging.
So unfair.
This led me to check out a treatment called microneedling. Have you heard of it? I had heard it helps with things like fine lines, acne scarring, skin tone and texture, and pigment. That all sounds amazing. But obviously I wasn’t about to go just anywhere if I was serious about having my skin slightly pricked (by very fine and short needles).
Recommended by a friend who has gorgeous skin, I decided to check out Studio Skin and Sculpt located in Shoreline, WA.
Here are some highlights from my experience:
- Easy parking
- Friendly and knowledgeable staff (because you don’t want ANY questions unanswered when having a treatment done)
- They offer a variety of treatments including botox, micro-needling, filler, IV therapy and more
- Top of the line numbing (they are a med spa so they are able to give patients THE best numbing cream. I didn’t feel a thing!)
- In and out in one hour
- No down time
- Reasonable cost (see my video with all the details!)
Check out how happy I was while getting numb!
Here is the tool they use for the treatment.
I captured my experience via video so you can see the actual process. As you will find, it was totally pain free. The worst part was that it tickled!
I learned that microneedling actually helps to encourage the production of collagen. You know, the stuff I literally can’t produce much of naturally because I am no longer in my 20s. I am excited to share some after pictures because I learned it takes about 30 days to see the full results. This means they didn’t try to sell me on coming back a week later to get yet another treatment.
I hope the video helps you see the entire process and takes away any questions. But I would love to connect and chat if you have had this done or want to learn more about my experience!
