What Is the Micro-Tox Instant Facial?

Micro-Tox microneedling is a combination treatment designed to improve the appearance of aging skin. The procedure combines small quantities of highly effective neuromodulators and/or fillers with microneedling to produce dramatic improvements in skin hydration, volume, tightness, and overall appearance.

Like traditional Botox, the neuromodulators in a Micro-Tox treatment control the release of neurotransmitters that stimulate facial muscle contraction. But rather than injecting these neuromodulators directly into the facial muscles, Micro-Tox distributes them into the skin via ultra-thin microneedles.

Much like a traditional microneedling procedure, Micro-Tox microneedling only penetrates 0.6 mm into the upper layer of the skin. But unlike traditional microneedles, Micro-Tox needles are thinner than human hair and deliver a cocktail of neuromodulators, fillers, vitamins, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The procedure essentially “sprinkles” various areas of the face with anti-aging, tightening compounds to produce a subtle, airbrush-like effect and younger-looking skin.

What Can Micro-Tox Treat?

Because the Micro-Tox Instant Facial is essentially a combination of superficial microneedling and Botox, the treatment can be used to address a wide variety of complexion concerns. Micro-Tox can help:

• Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles anywhere on the face
• Slim the jawline
• Tighten the skin around the eyes, on the neck, and on the décolletage
• Improve the appearance of “crepey” skin on the face
• Slim and contour the areas around the nose
• Soften dimpling on the chin
• Decrease the size of facial pores
• Reduce the appearance of sagging skin under the eyes
• Lift and contour the brow area

When you visit Medical Tattoo Centers of America for a Micro-Tox consultation, we’ll discuss your unique skin concerns to determine if you’re a candidate for treatment. We’ll then formulate an individualized treatment protocol to address the areas you’d like to improve.

What Results Can You Expect With Micro-Tox Microneedling?

Everyone’s complexion is unique, which means Micro-Tox results will vary from person to person. That said, most patients find the results of their Micro-Tox treatments become fully apparent within 48 hours after the procedure. Those results typically last four to eight weeks, and with repeat treatments, they’ll begin to last longer over time.

While your needs and concerns will ultimately determine your recommended frequency of treatment, most patients schedule their Micro-Tox sessions about six to eight weeks apart. During your pre-treatment consultation, your provider will help you determine an individualized treatment schedule.
