Microchannelling precisely delivers active ingredients to targeted areas of the skin through anti-inflammatory, 24K gold needles. Neuromodulators, filler, exosomes, medical grade hyaluronic acid and/or mesotherapy products can be delivered to every pore using this device. Since all of these products can be combined, an aquagold facial offers completely customizable solutions to treat each individual’s concerns. This facial offers pretty much every treatment modality in a single session- neurotoxins, fillers, exosomes, mesotherapy and microneedling! The best part is that you get instant results (filler), results one week later (neuromodulators), further results in about one month (PRP) and ongoing results for several months (microneedling)!

What To Expect At Your Treatment
