Collagen and Skin Thickness Changes
Bella Micro-Needling
Bella Micro-Needling therapy is a nonsurgical skin rejuvenating treatment that dramatically improves fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, pigmentation, and should be considered an alternative option to the surgical face-lift.
With the innovative technology of the Bella microneedling pen, tiny punctures will be created in the skin that promotes removal of old and damaged skin tissue and stimulates new skin growth that is rich in collagen and elastin. This results in a refreshed and smooth skin appearance. |
The Bella microneedling pen consists of an electric hand piece and a disposable needle tip. This means that during your microneedling treatment, the Bella microneedling pen will be gently glided over the target area to rejuvenate your skin. Since the electric technology and the 12-microscopic needles in the tip of the Bella microneedling pen work together, tiny punctures are created smoothly and safely without causing dermal tearing. This process promotes new growth for a smoother, younger look.
Treatments generally takes 30 minutes. After the treatment, your skin will be red but this should subside within 1 – 2 days. We recommend avoiding direct sunlight for 48 hours. Otherwise, your daily routine can be resumed almost immediately after treatment. Although results will be visible after treatment, optimal results will be evident after 4 – 6 weeks. |
PRP Facial Therapy with Bella Micro-Needling
(“All-Natural Facial")
Dr. Saito has coined it as the “All-Natural Facial” since all the products of rejuvenation comes from within each person's own body.
Specifically, through a specialized process, concentrated growth factors from your own blood are isolated and used with Bella microneedling to erase years of aging by restoring lost collagen to give you a tighter, younger, and smoother looking skin once again.

Prior to your PRP facial, a small amount of blood (18 mL) will be drawn from your arm. Your blood will then be placed into a centrifuge machine which will separate the different components of the blood (red and white blood cells, platelets, and plasma). The separated plasma now contains a higher concentration of platelets (thus the term, platelet-rich plasma or PRP). The PRP is then administered with microneedling onto and into your skin.
Prior to the procedure, a topical and/or inhaled anesthetic may be used to reduce any discomfort caused by the microneedling process. Treatment from start to finish, (with drawing and separating blood) will take about 30-40 minutes. After the procedure, your face will be red due to the red blood cells within the PRP. However, this will subside within a few days. Optimal results will be visible within 4 – 6 weeks. |
