Microneedling
Wellness Center & Aesthetic Medical Spa in Pleasanton, CA
Smooth, tighten, and transform your skin: naturally.
If you’re looking for visible skin rejuvenation without invasive procedures, microneedling offers clinically proven solutions. At Radiance East Bay Aesthetics in Pleasanton, CA, we offer two advanced microneedling modalities to address your unique skin concerns: SkinPen Microneedling and RF Microneedling with Lutronic Genius.
Whether you’re targeting acne scars, skin laxity, fine lines, or overall skin texture improvement, our personalized microneedling treatments deliver next-level results with minimal downtime.
Two Powerful Microneedling Options
SkinPen Microneedling
Traditional microneedling that creates controlled micro-injuries to trigger your skin’s natural healing response and boost collagen production. Ideal for improving texture, reducing acne scars, and refining pores.
RF Microneedling with Lutronic Genius
An advanced form of collagen induction therapy that combines ultrafine needles with targeted radiofrequency energy. This intelligent platform adjusts to your skin in real time, making it safer and more effective for all skin types, especially for those seeking deeper collagen remodeling and skin tightening.
What Skin Concerns Do Our Microneedling Treatments Address?
Clients choose microneedling at Radiance East Bay Aesthetics for a wide range of concerns:
- Acne scars and enlarged pores
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin laxity and sagging (mild to moderate)
- Stretch mark reduction
- Uneven tone or skin texture
- Crepey skin on the neck and jawline
- Overall skin rejuvenation
Both treatments are suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types and can safely target delicate areas like the jawline and neck.
How Microneedling Works
SkinPen Microneedling: Mechanical microneedles create controlled micro-injuries that stimulate your skin’s natural healing response, promoting fresh collagen and elastin production for smoother, more refined skin.
RF Microneedling (Genius): Delivers a dual-action effect:
- Microneedles create micro-injuries that trigger your skin’s healing response
- Radiofrequency energy penetrates deep into the dermis, remodeling collagen and tightening skin from within
This dynamic pairing allows for deeper impact and greater precision than traditional microneedling, without surgery.
