Micro-Needling Procedure
Micro-Needling Procedure Detailed
The SkinPen Micro-needling treatment begins by prepping the skin with a topical numbing agent for 20-30 minutes. After the treated area has been numbed, the skin is cleansed and degreased with Acetone to removed any excess makeup and oils.
To perform the micro-needling treatment, a hyaluronic acid gel is applied to the skin. This is also known as a “slick” which allows the SkinPen to glide smoothly on the skin. While gliding the SkinPen on the skins surface, micro channels are created. These micro channels absorb the hyaluronic acid to boost hydration and fill in fine lines and wrinkles. Micro channels also trigger the healing response to stimulate the production of collagen and rebuild healthy stronger skin.
The end goal of micro-needling is to achieve slight pin point bleeding and even erythema (redness)at the treated area. Once the micro-needling treatment is completed, the skin is cleansed with sterile water and HA Lift and Skin Rescue are applied. The micro channels created remain open for 18-24 hours post treatment. Therefore, no other skin products or makeup should be applied during this time.
Other uses of Micro-Needling?
Micro-needling also benefits patients who suffer acne scarring by helping breakup the scar tissue underneath the skin and penetrating deep into it.

Wart Removal and Treatment Options
In this video, Dr. Mejia talks about wart removal and some of the treatment options. It all depends on what it looks like, how big the wart is, how flat it is and the location.
A simple wart treatment is an over the counter 14% salicylic acid that is applied into the wart. The salicylic acid will slowly peel it away. Another common way to treat it with salicylic acid is to cover it with duct tape so it can penetrate deeper.
If those treatments don’t work, another alternative is to freeze it with liquid nitrogen at a dermatologist office or in some cases surgically remove it by lightly shaving it off and cauterizing it from the base. This is a simple procedure that can be done in the doctor’s office without any discomfort. The dermatologist will usually add some anesthesia which does cause some slight stinging or burning. But once the wart is removed and cauterized, it should not recur.

Anti Aging Tips : Dr. Mejia Shares Some Easy Tips
A patient recently asked Dr. Mejia about anti aging and what is the best way to remain natural looking but also working to repair and delay the aging process. There are a couple of key things he emphasizes:
Wear Your Sunblock
One of the worst offenders of aging is ultraviolet light. So the use of sunblock especially those that contain UVA and titanium oxide or zinc oxide which is the physical block. Using sunblock on a daily basis especially when outdoors can prevent the harmful rays from penetrating into your skin and damaging the collagen and elastin which causes premature aging and wrinkling.

How To Get Rid Of Sunspots
In this video Dr. Mejia talks about how to get rid of sunspots. Sunspots are slight brown spots on the surface of the skin that you can hardly feel. They are typically caused by chronic sun damage. Sunspots are not necessarily pre-cancerous to develop into a skin cancer.
They can be treated in a variety of different ways:
- Liquid nitrogen to damage the pigmentation so it slowly goes back to normal.
- Laser treatments that can help soften them.
- Bleaching creams that may help the discoloration if the sunspots are not so apparent.
