FAQ – Procell Therapies

A: Microchanneling is a noninvasive procedure designed to stimulate your body’s own natural ability to generate collagen, elastin, and other building blocks of healthy skin. By stimulating the outermost layers of the skin, microchanneling can help your body start this process without penetrating into living tissue. This is more of a stamping method versus a the traditional needling style of dragging or rolling on the skin. Previous methods such as micro-needling often tear the skin, increasing the risk of scarring, infection and added time on recovery.

A: Yes, Procell is Health Canada Approved. A certificate is available upon request.

A: Hair restoration paired with the hair regrowth serum. Body treatments for stretch marks, cellulite, and scarring. Face and neck treatments to target skin tightening, acne scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven texture.

A: 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.

A: 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.

A: For clients with mild skincare concerns, 2-3 treatments may be sufficient. For deeper wrinkles and scarring, we recommend 4-6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.

A: Procell’s Microchannel Delivery Serum—with growth factors and stem cytokines—is more effective, less painful, and faster-healing than microneedling. Typical healing time is ~90 minutes. Where micro-needling treatments can take 3-5 days to heal.

A: Microchanneling treatments can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, stretch marks, and rosacea.

A: The effects of the treatment can last anywhere from 2-10 years depending on clients age and lifestyle.

A: 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.

A: Though neocollagenesis (the production of new collagen) can take several weeks, it is not abnormal to notice an improvement in the quality and appearance of your skin within the first 24 hours. After 2-3 treatments a thicker more robust, collagen filled cellular matrix will produce more consistent and noticeable improvement. And 6 or more treatments may be recommended for scarring, laxity and wrinkles.

A: 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.
