Controlled micro-injury.
Sub-millimetre channels open in the dermis. The body reads them as injury and triggers a wound-healing cascade, without removing tissue.
A microneedling session with Lakem isn't a procedure. It's paced like a ritual. Below, what every session actually contains.
I bring everything: the table, the lighting, the sterile field, the music if you want it. You set the room, I set the rest. We start when your phone is on do-not-disturb.
A short conversation: what you want, what's bothered you lately, what's healing now. Then a hands-on read of your skin under angled light. Tone, texture, where the work should and shouldn't go.
Hyaluronic-acid serum, then microneedling pen at the depth your skin can take. ~25 minutes of careful, gridded passes. The first sensation is sharper than you expect, and gone within sixty seconds.
Calming serum, sun-safety brief, what to avoid for the next 72 hours, what to expect for the next 30 days. You get a written follow-up the same evening, and a check-in on day 7.
Sub-millimetre channels open in the dermis. The body reads them as injury and triggers a wound-healing cascade, without removing tissue.
Within 7–14 days, fibroblast activity peaks. New collagen and elastin scaffolds form along the channel paths.
Pores read finer, tone reads more even, fine lines soften. Most clients book their next session at week four, when the work is mature enough to layer.
