+ PRP

Skin That Is More Youthful
Are you seeking a non-invasive way to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, and achieve a more radiant complexion? Microchanneling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is an advanced aesthetic treatment designed to stimulate your skin's natural healing process. At Ethos Dental Studio in Langley, we offer both standard Microchanneling and an enhanced treatment with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) to deliver superior skin rejuvenation.
How It Works
Microchanneling involves using a device with fine needles to create microscopic channels in the uppermost layers of the skin. This controlled micro-injury triggers the body's natural healing response, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin, essential proteins for healthy, youthful skin. These micro-channels also create pathways for topical serums, allowing for deeper penetration and enhanced absorption of active ingredients.
For an even more powerful rejuvenating effect, Microchanneling can be combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). PRP is derived from a small sample of your own blood, which is spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma rich in growth factors. When applied to the skin during Microchanneling, these growth factors deeply penetrate the micro-channels, accelerating healing, promoting new cell growth, and significantly enhancing collagen production for more dramatic and lasting results.
✦ Benefits Of Treatment
- Improved Skin Texture and Tone: Microchanneling stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to smoother skin texture, reduced pore size, and a more even skin tone.
- Reduction in Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By promoting new collagen growth, the treatment helps to fill in and soften the appearance of fine lines and superficial wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful look.
- Minimizes Acne Scars and Pigmentation: It can effectively diminish the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage by encouraging skin regeneration and remodeling.
- Enhanced Product Absorption: The creation of micro-channels allows for significantly better absorption of therapeutic serums, allowing active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin for maximum efficacy.
- Natural and Safe: By leveraging your body's own healing mechanisms (especially with PRP), Microchanneling is a natural and safe treatment with minimal risk when performed by a trained professional.
- Boosted Results with PRP: Adding PRP amplifies the rejuvenating effects, leading to faster healing, more robust collagen production, and more noticeable improvements in skin elasticity, volume, and overall radiance.
Understanding The Cost Of Microchanneling
The cost of Microchanneling treatment is an investment in your skin health and aesthetic goals. At Ethos Dental Studio, we believe in transparent pricing.
For standard Microchanneling, the cost typically ranges from $250 - $400 per session. For Microchanneling with PRP, the cost typically ranges from $500 - $800 per session.
The exact fee will depend on the extent of the treatment area and the number of sessions recommended for optimal results.
Factors Influencing the Cost:
- Treatment Area: Larger areas or multiple areas (e.g., face, neck, décolletage) may incur higher costs.
- Number of Sessions: A series of treatments is usually recommended for best results, and package deals may be available.
- Addition of PRP: Opting for PRP significantly enhances results but also increases the per-session cost due to the blood draw and processing involved.
