What's Included
Every face session includes the same four things, whether it is your first or your sixth.
Numbing cream every session
Applied before anything else and given time to work. You can tell Caroline at any point if something feels uncomfortable.
Hyaluronic acid serum
Applied as Caroline works, while the channels are open, so it reaches past the surface instead of sitting on top.
A depth set for each area
Caroline adjusts the pen for the forehead, cheeks, jaw and any area you add, watching how your skin responds.
Aftercare, explained before you leave
What to expect that evening, what to avoid for two days and what to use on your skin while it settles.
Who It's For
For skin that is ready for a more involved treatment. Caroline will tell you at your consultation if microchanneling, a peel or a facial would suit you better.
- Fine lines and wrinkles you would like to soften over a course
- Uneven texture or enlarged pores
- The appearance of acne scarring
- Dull or uneven tone
- Anyone who can plan around a couple of days of redness
Common Questions
Some people call it that. It is a microneedling treatment: numbing cream, then a pen with very fine needles worked across the face with a hyaluronic acid serum. It is not a facial with steam, massage and a mask, and it is not a stronger version of a facial you may already have had. Plan on about 60 minutes.
Depth, control and what goes on your skin. Caroline works at a depth set for each part of the face, with numbing cream, a clean setup and a trained eye on how your skin is responding as she goes. Home rollers and pens stay near the surface, which is why their results and their risks are different. If you have been rolling at home, mention it when you book.
No. Caroline offers pen microneedling with a hyaluronic acid serum. There is no radiofrequency energy involved, and she does not offer RF microneedling or Morpheus8. If you were comparing the two, this is the version without heat, at a different price point, with numbing cream every session.
The look of fine lines and wrinkles, uneven texture, enlarged pores, the appearance of acne scarring, and dull or uneven tone. What any one person sees depends on their skin and how many sessions they do, so Caroline looks at your skin first and tells you what she thinks is realistic.
People book it with uneven tone in mind, and it is one of the reasons Caroline looks at your skin before anything else. Melasma in particular needs a careful look, because not every treatment suits it. Mention it when you book and she will tell you whether microneedling, a peel or a different approach makes more sense for your skin.
No. Caroline treats the face, and the neck and chest as add-ons. She does not microneedle the scalp or the body.

What Caroline recommends afterward
For the first couple of days, keep it simple: a gentle cleanser, light hydration and no heavy makeup. After that, mineral makeup is what I reach for, and daily SPF is the one step I will not let you skip.
