ENHANCEMENTS TO YOUR MICRO-NEEDLING TREATMENT
The addition of certain topicals to the micro-needling treatment is often desired to enhance results, speed recovery and reduce inflammation. Fourth N Main currently offers PRP and Exosomes as options for enhancement.
MICRO-NEEDLING
Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) involves using fine needles to create hundreds of tiny, invisible puncture wounds in the top layer of skin. Fourth N Main Modern Aesthetics in Asbury Park, NJ utilizes the SkinPen® by Bellus Medical to provide our patients with the best technology available to perform microneedling. SkinPen® is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device available through skincare professionals only. SkinPen® is designed to stimulate your skin’s natural ability to produce new collagen and elastin, resulting in healthier, more youthful skin. Microneedling can be used to improve the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, and skin texture, as well as fine lines and wrinkles. The repair process of your skin is accelerated through the creation of microscopic channels, which also allow products to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin resulting in better product outcomes.
MICRO-NEEDLING WITH PRP
PRP is a concentrated form of platelets from your blood. Before your microneedling session, our skilled professionals will extract blood and place it in a centrifuge to isolate platelets and plasma. That final product is used during a treatment or procedure to enhance the healing and restorative properties of the skin and tissues. The power of PRP, sometimes called “liquid gold” has been demonstrated to contain a large amount of natural growth factors which stimulate cellular regeneration and healing. The PRP is then applied topically to the skin during the micro-needling procedure. Oftentimes patients do prefer to add PRP to their micro-needling treatment. Our medical aestheticians at Fourth N Main are experienced providers in the area using PRP in aesthetic treatments and were early adopters of using the power of PRP for enhancement and rejuvenation.
EXOSOMES FOR FACIAL REJUVENATION
Restore your skin’s vitality with exosome facial rejuvenation in Monmouth County. This treatment encourages tissue regeneration on a cellular level, helping patients achieve glowing skin. As we age, our skin’s production of new skin cells and collagen protein slows down. With exosome facial rejuvenation at Fourth N Main Modern Aesthetics, the process of skin repair is boosted to improve texture, reduce pore size, and so much more. Exosomes can be applied to the skin during micro-needling to help these processes along, and are becoming quite popular due to their healing properties. We offer our signature XO Facial, which is micro-needling with exosomes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
WHAT IS KYBELLA?Kybella is a refined version of a substance called deoxycholic acid, which is naturally produced by your body. Deoxycholic acid’s primary role is assisting with fat absorption.
-
HOW DOES KYBELLA WORK?It destroys fat cells wherever it is injected, causing them to be absorbed by the body. When injected into the fat beneath your chin, Kybella causes the destruction of fat cells. Once destroyed, those cells cannot store or accumulate fat. This makes Kybella an innovative and ideal new way for patients to gain some of the benefits of liposuction for a double chin without surgery. Prior to approval in May of 2015 by the Food and Drug Administration, Kybella was the subject of medical trials that included more than 1,000 individuals. The results showed that eight out of ten people who received Kybella had a loss of chin fat.
-
WHY CHOOSE KYBELLA?Most people who have a double chin feel self-conscious about the fullness. To make matters worse, extra fat in this region may not go away with diet and exercise. A lot of individuals who struggle with double chins avoid liposuction for their problem because they worry about the costs, downtime, and invasiveness. Fortunately, Kybella offers a cutting-edge new way to solve double chins without these obstacles.
-
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?Many patients experience visible contouring of their chin profile in two to four treatment sessions spaced at least one month apart on average. Once the desired aesthetic response is achieved with Kybella, re-treatment is not expected.
