What is ProCell Microchanneling?It is a way to unlock your body’s natural ability to produce healthy new skin. Procell microchanneling creates invisible micro-channels and stimulates specialized Stem Cells in your skin, and in your immune system to produce proteins called cytokines, peptides, and growth factors that help rejuvenate the structure of your skin. MicroChanneling also induces the rapid production of high quality new collagen via stimulation, rather than the old methods that merely damaged the skin.

-

-

Are there any contraindications?If you have any underlying condition that significantly impairs your immune system, it is a good idea to avoid microchanneling. Examples include but are not limited to active radiation or chemotherapy, uncontrolled diabetes, chronic inflammatory skin disease, Accutane in the past 2 years, hemophilia, or similar bleeding disorders. Also anyone with stainless steel allergies should not do this treatment or those who are pregnant or nursing.
-
What is the aftercare like?Avoid washing your face for the first 6 hours. You can wash the treated area gently with a gentle cleanser and apply moisturizer thereafter. After the therapy, nothing topical should be applied for at least 90 minutes. Do not exfoliate at least for 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 first 72 hours. Avoid anti-inflammatory medication pre and post treatment. Avoid makeup for at least 6 hours after the procedure.
-
How long before I expect to see results?Though neocollagenesis (the production of new collagen) can take several weeks, it is not abnormal to notice an improvement in the quality and appearance of your skin within the first 24 hours. After 2-3 treatments a thicker more robust, collagen filled cellular matrix will produce more consistent and noticeable improvement. And 6 or more treatments may be recommended for scarring, elasticity, and wrinkles.
-
Do I have to use the MicroChanneling solution / aftercare serums?Microchanneling stimulates the body to release peptides, cytokines and growth factors that induge collagen production. As you get older, the stem cells that produce these vital proteins lose efficacy and decline in population, so microchanneling alone becomes less and less effective. Because of prematuring aging, the Microchanneling Delivery Serum and the post care Cellular Renewal Serum and Healing Accelerator Serum become vital to improvement. Use of the Procell aftercare products ensure the skin continuously receives potent, robust, pristine peptides, cytokines and growth factors even in between treatments. Think of diet and exercise- microchanneling without serums is like exercising without dieting. Results can be good with microchanneling only, but are significantly amplified with serums.
-
What is in the serum?ProCell's Microchanneling Delivery Serum contains bone marrow-derived growth factors in a hyaluronic acid suspension. Both of these elements are naturally-occurring in the human body. There are no human, animal or plant cells, DNA, blood, or any other foreign substances. The product has been used safely and effectively for over a decade.
-
Does it hurt?With minimal physical discomfort, most clients are able to do the procedure without numbing cream and without any noticeable pain. There is no lingering discomfort, and we have a number of strategies we employ to minimize discomfort during treatment. Post treatment, most people report a "tight" feeling in their skin. All clients will have numbing cream applied before the procedure to help with any discomfort.
