Microneedling is one of the best-value treatments for skin texture, and it pairs beautifully with peptides. Here is how it works and what it costs at Melange Spa.

How microneedling works

Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. That triggers your body's natural repair response, boosting collagen and elastin. Over a series of sessions, it can improve tone, texture, fine lines, enlarged pores, and the appearance of acne scarring, using your own biology rather than a foreign substance.

Adding PRP

We can enhance microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) drawn from your own blood. The growth factors in PRP amplify the regenerative response, which is why it is sometimes called a "vampire facial." It is an add-on we will discuss based on your goals.

What a session feels like

We apply a numbing cream first, so most people find it very tolerable. Afterward your skin may look flushed, like a mild sunburn, for a day or two. Most patients return to normal activity quickly, with visible improvement building over the following weeks.

Transparent pricing

Microneedling is $250 per session, or three sessions for $700. Because collagen builds gradually, a series usually delivers the best results. It also pairs naturally with our signature peptide therapy for skin. See the aesthetics page for the full menu.
