Microchanneling is performed on the cheek without numbing cream. Since microchanneling doesn't go as deep as microneedling, it is more comfortable and elicits a better response without numbing cream.
Crow's feet and sagging eyelids are a primary concern for most women. Procell Microchanneling is gentle enough to be done on the upper eyelid, as well as right beneath the eye for great collagen stimulation.

FAQs
How does a Microchanneling Treatment stimulate cellular activity?
A single treatment creates hundreds of thousands of microchannels. In response to each micro-injury, an inflammatory healing process begins which initiates the formation of new collagen. Over time, the repeated healing process improves the surface texture and the overall appearance of the skin.
How do stem cells assist healing?
Human growth-factor serums derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are known to promote scarless healing with minimal inflammation. Application of serums immediately after microchanneling treatment enhances delivery and collagen growth.
Who is a candidate?
As ProCell microchanneling treatments are minimally invasive, they are also safe for all skin types. Whether you are fair-skinned or dark, and even if you experience chronic breakouts, properly conducted microchanneling treatments will not result in hyperpigmentation, keloid scars, or other lasting negative side effects.
My skin is irritated. Can I use moisturizer?
It is normal for treatments to result in some skin irritation, especially for clients with more sensitive skin. Always wait a minimum of 90 minutes before putting anything else on the skin. During this time it is normal for the skin to remain pink or light red. After the 90 minutes you can apply additional moisturizer or other products. Keep in mind however, that as your skin may be more sensitive than usual for several days after the treatment, especially strong topicals should be avoided until the skin returns to normal.
Who shouldn't get this treatment?
If you have any underlying condition that significantly impairs your immune system, it is a good idea to avoid microchanneling. Examples include but are not limited to active radiation or chemotherapy, uncontrolled diabetes, chronic inflammatory skin disease, Accutane in the past 2 years, hemophilia or similar bleeding disorder. Also anyone with stainless steel allergies should not do this treatment. We also discourage treatments for those who are pregnant or nursing.
How many treatments are recommended?
For fine lines and wrinkles: We recommend one treatment for every decade you are old. If you are 57, we recommend 6 treatments approximately 30 days apart for optimal results.
​
For hair regrowth: We recommend treatments every 2 weeks with use of the homecare serum until you achieve the results you're looking for. You can expect to see results in as little as two treatments.
​
For scarring: We recommend treatments every 30 days until you achieve the results you're looking for. Scarring is very personal and hard to predict exactly how many treatments it will take to break up the scar tissue and renew the skin.
Why does skin age?
You age, visibly and invisibly, every day. Sun damage, internal inflammation, chem​icals, and even gravity all work against the youthful vitality of your skin. As we get older, fewer regenerative stem cells survive to repair this constant damage.
Does it hurt?
With minimal physical discomfort, most clients are able to do the procedure without numbing cream and without any noticeable pain. There is no lingering discomfort, and we have a number of strategies we employ to minimize discomfort during treatment. Post-procedure, most people report a “tight” feeling in their skin.
What skin conditions will this help with?
Microchanneling treatments can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, stretch marks, and rosacea.
What's in the serum?
ProCell’s Microchannel Delivery Serum contains bone marrow-derived growth factors in a hyaluronic acid suspension. Both of these elements are naturally-occurring in the human body. There are no human, animal, or plant cells, DNA, blood, or any other foreign substances. The product has been used safely and effectively for over a decade.
Do I have to use the MicroChanneling solution/ aftercare serums?
Microchanneling stimulates the body to release peptides, cytokines and growth factors that induce collagen production. As you get older, the stem cells that produce these vital proteins lose efficacy and decline in population, so microchanneling alone becomes less and less effective. Because of premature aging, the Microchannel Delivery Serum and the post care Cellular Renewal Serum and Healing Accelerator Serum become more vital to improvement. Use of the ProCell aftercare products ensure the skin continuously receives potent, robust, pristine peptides, cytokines and growth factors even in between treatments. Think of diet and exercise – microchanneling without serums is like exercising without dieting. Results can be good with microchanneling only, but are significantly amplified with serums.
