Aesthetx’ microGLO and microPRO Skin Treatments

Aesthetx’ microGLO and microPRO skin treatments deliver BOTOX® and therapeutics to the skin’s surface. With microGLO and microPRO, the BOTOX® paralyzes the small muscle in the base of the pore, making the pore smaller and preventing the pore from making secretions, clearing the skin. In each treatment, the BOTOX® and other therapeutics are delivered via a specialized micro-injector device called AQUAGOLD. Each micro-channel is made of surgical-grade stainless steel plated with 24 karat gold. These tiny channels are the secret to achieving glasslike smooth and clear skin.

More about AQUAGOLD

AQUAGOLD® fine touch™ is the first of its kind, patented microchannel microinjector. It is designed to painlessly and effectively deliver microdoses of therapeutics into the skin. AQUAGOLD is a patented cutting-edge micro-injector device. Each micro-channel is made of surgical grade stainless steel plated with 24 karat gold and is 130 μm in diameter, which is smaller than a human hair. Pure gold has high bio-compatibility with human skin, preventing irritation and allergic responses after use. Impurities and other metals may result in unnecessary irritation. The AQUAGOLD® fine touch has the proven ability to deliver micro-doses of a drug or biologic just under the dermis at a consistent depth. The small size of the channels means that the treatment is virtually painless.

What to Expect During Your AquaGold Procedure at Aesthetx

Before undergoing AquaGold treatment at Aesthetx, you'll need to schedule your initial consultation with one of our skin rejuvenation specialists. They'll ensure that AquaGold treatment is right for you by evaluating your current health, your medical history, your aesthetic goals, and the condition of your skin. Your AquaGold treatment process begins with a thorough cleansing of your skin to ensure it is free of any makeup, oils, or impurities. Once your skin is prepared, a customized blend of skincare ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins, peptides, and other rejuvenating substances, is prepared to address your specific skin concerns.

Using a specialized AquaGold device equipped with ultra-fine, gold-plated needles, your provider will gently press the device onto your skin. These tiny needles will create micro-channels in the skin, allowing the tailored blend of ingredients to be infused directly into the dermis.

This process stimulates collagen production and enhances the skin's absorption of the beneficial ingredients, promoting hydration, smoothness, and radiance.

What Is the Recovery Like After AquaGold Treatment?

After your AquaGold treatment, you may experience mild redness, similar to a slight sunburn, which usually subsides within a few hours. That said, there is typically little to no downtime required, allowing you to resume your normal activities almost immediately, and you can expect to see noticeable improvements in your skin's texture, hydration, and overall appearance within a few days. After your AquaGold treatment, following these aftercare guidelines is crucial to ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery:

Avoid Sun Exposure

Protect your skin from direct sun exposure and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to prevent any potential damage or pigmentation.

Keep Skin Clean

Gently cleanse your face with a mild, non-irritating cleanser to keep the treated area clean. Avoid using harsh or exfoliating products for at least a week.

Avoid Makeup

Refrain from applying makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment to allow your skin to breathe and recover.

No Touching or Picking

Avoid touching, picking, or scratching the treated area to prevent irritation or infection.

Avoid Strenuous Activities

Steer clear of strenuous exercise, saunas, and hot tubs for at least 24 to 48 hours, as excessive sweating can irritate the treated skin.

Moisturize

Keep your skin well-moisturized with a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to maintain hydration and soothe any residual redness or dryness.
