Microneedling
Microneedling is a luxury medical skin treatment to feed and nourish the skin from within.
How Microneedling Works
Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation therapy that uses tiny needles to create localized injuries on the skin.
The body then repairs these injuries by producing new collagen and elastin.
Target Areas
Microneedling is beneficial for the face, neck, décolleté, and body.
Different needle depths are used depending on the specific treatment area and goals.

Procedure & Recovery Information
This procedure involves a handheld microneedling device after a topical serum is applied to the skin.
Norah Clair will customize microneedling treatments for you, depending on your skincare goals. These treatments may include exosomes, growth factors, stem cells, brightening serums, biostimulation, or your own Platelet-rich Fibrin.
Microneedling is a comfortable procedure with minimal to no downtime, just short-term redness, which will not disrupt your lifestyle.
Treatments are often repeated three to four times, with four weeks between appointments.
Advanced Microneedling Devices
Aquagold® Fine Touch
Aquagold® is a micro-infusion device that uses 24-karat gold-plated surgical steel needles to reach the superficial layers of the skin.
SkinPen
The SkinPen is an effective and precise microneedling device that stimulates collagen and is often used to treat fine lines, texture, pore size, acne scars, necklines, stretch marks, and more.
Morpheus8
The Morpheus8 device combines microneedling with radiofrequency to energize the deepest layer of the skin to tighten and minimize pores.
Microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy
Often called the ‘Vampire Facial,’ Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) can either be a topical or injected treatment that uses a mixture from the patient’s blood to trigger healing, hence the vampire reference.
An ideal counterpart to laser treatments or microneedling, PRP therapy is renowned for its rejuvenating effects on the face, resulting in firmer, smoother, and younger-looking skin. In addition, PRP has also shown significant benefits in treating scars and stretch marks.
