Dive deep into skin rejuvenation with our signature Mermaid Microneedling treatment – a fusion of advanced microneedling technology and skin-loving serums designed to boost collagen, refine texture, and reveal your most radiant glow. Whether you’re targeting fine lines, acne scars, or dullness, this treatment leaves your skin smoother, plumper, and glowing.

What to Expect from Mermaid Microneedling

1

Step 1: Consultation

During your consultation, we will ask you about your concerns and desired results, examine your skin, and then tailor your treatment plan to your unique lifestyle and goals.

2

Step 2: Treatment

Your experience begins with a gentle cleanse and skin prep, followed by the application of a numbing cream to ensure comfort. Using a professional microneedling device, we create tiny micro-channels in the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve serum absorption. During the treatment, our signature “Mermaid Elixir” — a nourishing blend of Sodium DNA (salmon DNA), peptides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants and growth factors — is infused to deeply hydrate, rejuvenate, and enhance your glow.

Step 3: Results

Instant Glow, Gradual Results

You’ll notice a fresh, dewy glow almost immediately. Over the next few weeks, collagen production increases, revealing firmer, smoother, more radiant skin.

Our Approach at Total Skin

During your consultation, we want to get to know you. You’re not just another face to us—we’re invested in your complete well-being. We will personalize your miraDry treatment plan to help you achieve your specific goals.

What Mermaid Microneedling Treats

Fine Lines & Wrinkles – Boosts collagen to smooth and firm aging skin

Acne Scars & Textural Irregularities – Helps resurface and soften scarred or uneven skin

Dullness & Dehydration – Infuses hydration and promotes a radiant, healthy glow

Enlarged Pores – Refines pore size for a smoother, more even complexion

Hyperpigmentation & Sun Damage – Aids in fading dark spots and improving skin tone

Mild Skin Laxity – Gently tightens and lifts for a youthful, refreshed appearance

Did you know…

The tiny micro-channels created during Mermaid Microneedling are so small, they stimulate healing without causing major damage  – kind of like giving your skin a gentle workout!

Care Instructions

Pre-Care Instructions

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning beds for at least 5–7 days prior to your treatment to minimize skin sensitivity.

  • Skip Retinoids & Exfoliants: Discontinue use of retinol, glycolic acid, AHAs, BHAs, and other exfoliating products 3–5 days before your session.

  • Hydrate Your Skin: Keep your skin well-moisturized and drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment.

  • Avoid Blood Thinners: If possible, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood-thinning medications 48 hours before treatment (check with your doctor first).

Post-Care Instructions

  • Keep It Clean & Hydrated: Gently cleanse your face with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser and apply a hydrating serum or moisturizer recommended by your provider.

  • Avoid Makeup: Skip makeup for at least 24 hours to allow your skin to breathe and heal properly.

  • Protect Your Skin: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily, and avoid direct sun exposure for at least 1 week.
  • No Harsh Products: Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, and active skincare ingredients (like AHAs/BHAs) for 5–7 days post-treatment.
  • Avoid Heat & Sweating: Steer clear of intense workouts, saunas, hot tubs, and prolonged heat exposure for 48 hours.
  • Don’t Pick or Scratch: Your skin may peel or flake slightly — resist the urge to pick or scratch to prevent irritation or scarring.

  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to support your skin’s natural healing process.

Our entire family has received services here from their annual skin checks, massages for back pain and pinched nerves, micro-needling and a laser skin treatment to work on a scar due to an accident. Not only is everyone knowledgeable and truly want to help you, they treat you with the utmost respect and kindness. I would highly recommend anyone and have to receive services at Total Skin.

    Total Skin changed my life. I lived a confused, sad life with acne rosacea. Dr. Laframboise took one look at me and knew the cures for my skin problems. THANK you for the best 6 months I’ve had in forever. I feel comfortable with no makeup and I no longer look for the place in a room that doesn’t have harsh bright light to shine on the bumps on my cheeks. Now I’m bump free!

    Julia M

    I’m so glad I found Whitney and followed her to Total Skin! I’m 67 and I work as a flight attendant. I’m also not into needles. Many of my coworkers do Botox and fillers, but I can’t do it. Whitney had recommendations that have improved my skin while keeping within my budget and my crazy work schedule. I constantly get compliments on my skin from both my coworkers and my passengers. Thank you, Whitney and Total Skin!

    Kirsten K

    Total Skin is everything you want in a dermatology clinic! Jen and her staff are phenomenal at what they do. I never feel pressured to purchase items or services like I had been at previous skin/esthetic clinics. They take the extra time to explain the different procedures and which ones would be best for my situation. I am so happy with my results! I highly recommend Total Skin!!
