My skin needed a major pick-me-up. With new life changes, stress, and tired-looking skin, I booked an appointment with my friend Lianna at her studio, Honest Skin for a glow boosting treatment. If you’re in San Diego, please go see her and try Microchanneling! Not sure what that is? Let me tell you.
What is Microchanneling?
Microchanneling is a safe, chemical-free method that stimulates new collagen production in the skin. It’s different from microneedling because instead of pulling the device across the skin, the needles are administered to the skin using a “stamp” pattern. By triggering the production of new collagen with tiny punctures, your skin’s texture and firmness improves.
My Experience
I loooooooved microchanneling! It’s minimally invasive, relatively painless, and has minimal downtime. Overall, I’m really impressed and can already see a noticeable difference with skin texture. I’ve had two treatments so far, 1 month apart, and I plan booked two more for later this year! For optimal results, multiple treatments are recommended.
Day 1: Skin is red immediately after treatment (looks like a sunburn) – no evening plans for me! I’m advised to skip makeup and use just a gentle cleaner, moisturizer, and SPF for the first week.
Day 2: Redness has mostly faded by now and I can see the improved texture in my skin!
Day 3-4: I notice some peeling (minimal)
Day 5: Skin looks more dewy, younger, and healthy. I feel comfortable without makeup on and super pleased with the results of the treatment.
