Microneedling

me.losangeles aesthetics performs microneedling using the FDA-cleared SkinPen device to stimulate collagen and elastin production across the face, neck, décolletage, and body areas including hands and stretch marks. Controlled micro-channels trigger the skin's natural repair response, improving acne scars, fine lines, pore size, texture, and uneven skin tone. Sessions include topical numbing and run 30–60 minutes. A PRP 'Vampire Facial' add-on combines the client's own platelet-rich plasma with the treatment for enhanced results.

me.losangeles aesthetics in West Hollywood delivers SkinPen microneedling — using a device that carries FDA clearance for acne scar treatment in adults — as part of its evidence-based aesthetics programme. SkinPen creates precise, controlled microperforations across the skin surface using a sterile, single-use needle cartridge with 14 micro-needles oscillating at a calibrated depth and speed. Each perforation initiates a highly localised wound response that progresses through the standard phases of tissue repair: haemostasis within minutes, followed by an inflammatory phase where macrophages and growth factors concentrate at the injury sites, leading to a proliferative phase over the following weeks characterised by fibroblast activation and new collagen (primarily type I and III) and elastin synthesis in the papillary and upper reticular dermis. The net structural change — increased dermal collagen density and improved organisation — translates clinically to smoother skin texture, softened atrophic acne scars of the rolling and boxcar subtypes, reduced pore visibility, and improvement in fine rhytids and early skin laxity. At me.losangeles, needle depth is calibrated by zone: periorbital skin and delicate areas are treated at 0.25–0.5 mm, while thicker skin regions such as the cheeks and jaw — where deeper scar remodelling is the target — may be approached at 1.5–2.0 mm. The micro-channels created during treatment also act as transient conduits for topical actives; the clinic leverages this with hyaluronic acid serum application during the session to optimise hydration and epidermal recovery. The PRP Vampire Facial upgrade substitutes or supplements this topical application with the client's own platelet-rich plasma: a small blood draw is centrifuged to concentrate platelets and their associated growth factors (PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF, EGF) approximately three to five times above baseline; the PRP is then applied to the open channels or micro-injected for direct dermal delivery. PRP amplifies the collagen stimulus and accelerates the healing timeline. Treatment areas at me.losangeles extend beyond the face to the neck, décolletage, hands, and areas of stretch marks on the body. A protocol of one to three sessions spaced four weeks apart is recommended for most indications, with annual maintenance. Located on Sunset Blvd in West Hollywood, the clinic is accessible from Beverly Hills, Silver Lake, Hollywood Hills, and across greater Los Angeles.
