What To Expect
What Are The Benefits?
Microneedling is the gold standard for improving skin texture by naturally stimulating collagen production. This treatment effectively reduces the appearance of fine lines, crepiness, enlarged pores, acne scars, and melasma. By triggering the body’s innate healing response, we can “reset” the skin’s surface. When combined with medical-grade skincare, it helps break up stubborn pigment and encourages the growth of healthy, new skin cells for a brighter, more youthful glow.
How Does it Work
Using the FDA-cleared SkinPen® device, we create thousands of precise, controlled micro-injuries in the dermis. These “micro-channels” jumpstart your skin’s repair process without causing permanent damage. As the skin heals, it produces fresh collagen and elastin—the building blocks of firm, smooth skin. To elevate your results, we can infuse the skin with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), Exosomes, or Hyaluronic Acid during the process, allowing these potent actives to penetrate deeper and work faster.
Pre Treatment
To ensure your experience is as comfortable as possible, we begin by applying a high-strength topical numbing cream to the target areas. We recommend arriving with a clean face; however, we will thoroughly prep and sanitize your skin before we begin. For best results, avoid active ingredients like Retinol or AHAs for 3–5 days prior to your visit.
Post Treatment
Immediately following your session, your skin will look and feel like a moderate sunburn—red and slightly swollen. This typically subsides within 24–48 hours.
Day 1-2: Redness and heat are normal. Stick to the post-care kit provided by your provider.
Day 3-5: You will likely experience shedding or light peeling as your skin undergoes rapid cellular turnover. Do not pick or exfoliate during this stage!
Day 7+: A brighter, smoother, and more refined complexion begins to emerge.
Your Personalized Skin Journey Starts Today
Advanced Texture Analysis
→ We go beyond a surface-level view. We assess your specific skin concerns—whether it’s acne scarring, melasma, or enlarged pores—to determine the precise depth and approach needed to trigger your skin’s natural healing response effectively.
Customized Regeneration Plan
→ You’re not getting a one-size-fits-all treatment. We build a goal-oriented plan based on your skin’s needs, determining whether to enhance your SkinPen session with PRP, Exosomes, or Hyaluronic Acid to maximize collagen synthesis and speed up your recovery.
Your First Treatment
→ The process is comfortable and controlled. We apply a premium topical numbing cream before using the SkinPen® to create intentional micro-channels. This jumpstarts cellular turnover, leaving your skin looking smoother, brighter, and more refined.
Integrative Aftercare Strategy
→ We map out exactly how to support your skin during the 48-hour healing phase. We provide a strategy on which medical-grade products to use—and which to avoid—to protect your new collagen and maintain your glow between sessions.

Before and after
ZO Stimulator Peel
The ZO Stimulator Peel Treatment is essential for skin that feels rough or looks dull. A unique combination of exfoliating ingredients renews and revives the skin. Great for first-timers or those wanting a peel with no downtime. This peel contains 10% glycolic acid, 10% lactic acid, and 10% salicylic acid. Also known as the ‘Red Carpet Peel,’ it smooths, hydrates, and removes superficial pigmentation. It stimulates cellular turnover, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and improves overall skin tone, texture, and clarity, leaving you with glowing skin. The perfect lunchtime peel – with no downtime and added anti-irritants and antioxidants, this advanced peel solution is gentle enough for all skin types.

ZO Ossential Acne and Oil Control Peel
Minimizes oil production, large pores, and inflammation. Cleansing gently removes impurities, followed by a micro-scrub to prepare the skin for the extraction process by removing remaining debris from the skin’s surface. A combination of AHA and salicylic acid is used to minimize excess oil production and tighten pores. Using an oil-free gel with a special blend of moisture factors, fatty acids, and amino acids, a calming massage is performed. Healing is encouraged, and inflammation is minimized with our exclusive ZO Bio-Sulfur Masque that adds eucalyptus and kaolin for antiseptic and detoxifying benefits. Calm, clear, and healthier oil-free skin is revealed. The treatment finishes with antioxidants, DNA-repairing enzymes, and powerful sun protection using natural melanin, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide to minimize acne scarring.

ZO Skin Anti-Aging Peel
The Anti-Aging Peel is a facial treatment with a mild peel designed to restore hydration, smooth dry, rough texture, soften lines, and strengthen skin to prevent future aging and damage. The peel results in smoother, brighter, even-toned, glowing skin. The use of salicylic acid helps to prevent breakouts. Other ingredients include glycolic acid for stimulating cell turnover, lactic acid to slough away dead skin cells, and citric acid to give the skin a healthy glow. This is achieved by using a combination of AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids), which remove dead cells and regenerate healthy new ones. The treatment finishes with ZO Accelerated Firming Serum, a concentrated serum that tightens and firms the skin, improves the appearance of sagging skin, while also using antioxidants, DNA-repairing enzymes, and powerful sun protection using natural melanin, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide to minimize acne scarring. (A course of 6 treatments is recommended for optimum results, or join our 111 Facial Membership for optimal maintenance results.)
ZO Skin Brightening Peel
Stimulates cellular turnover and improves skin tone and texture to minimize fine lines. This rejuvenation treatment creates a radiant, more even skin tone and texture with citric, salicylic, and lactic acids to increase skin brightness, clarity, and minimize pore size. A moisture-rich cleansing and mild exfoliation is followed by a vitamin-fortified calming massage. To further brighten the skin, the Ossential Skin Brightening Sheet Masque, with arbutin and green tea, is applied to minimize the production of excess skin pigment and supply ample hydration to the tissue. The treatment finishes with ZO Accelerated Bright Alive Serums, concentrated serums that improve pigmentation, sun damage, and uneven skin tone, while also using antioxidants, DNA-repairing enzymes, and powerful sun protection using natural melanin, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide to minimize acne scarring.

ZO Skin Redness Peel
The Redness Treatment is a facial treatment with a mild peel designed to calm skin and minimize symptoms associated with red, sensitized skin, including rosacea. It stimulates cellular turnover, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin tone, texture, and clarity. This facial begins with our Offects Hydrating Cleanser along with our Offects Exfoliating Polish, which is filled with magnesium crystals to remove outer dead skin cells, enhancing the penetration of the facial’s active ingredients. Vitamins A, C, C-Ester, and E provide antioxidant protection. Herbal papain and bromelain enzymes gently exfoliate and remove surface debris. Aloe Vera gel and chamomile extract soothe the skin, while glycerine, sodium PCA, and glycosaminoglycans help restore hydration and moisture. The treatment finishes with ZO Accelerated Rozatrol Serum, a concentrated serum that reduces redness, flushing, and sensitivity in the skin, using antioxidants, DNA-repairing enzymes, and powerful sun protection with natural melanin, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide.

ZO Ultra Hydration Peel
Hydrates and rejuvenates moisture-depleted skin. This elegant treatment begins with gentle hydrating cleansing and micro-exfoliation to remove surface debris. Using mulberry, licorice, and bearberry extracts with kojic and lactic acid, the skin is prepped for a triple-action resurfacing process to enhance brightness, skin texture, and diminish fine lines. ZO® Aloe Hydra gel with cucumber and chamomile is applied to cool and soothe the skin, followed by a massage. The treatment concludes with DNA-repairing enzymes, hydrators, and sun protection.
