Nanoneedling is similar to microneedling and microchanneling, however the depth of the treatment is shallower, leading to less down time, less pain, and less inflammation. The goal of this treatment is to enhance the beauty of the skin and address skin issues by delivering the best topical Toskani products to address your specific skin concerns. Treatment is used to address fine lines & wrinkles, pigmentation, lymphatic swelling, puffy under eyes, and acne. Learn More »

PRF or Platelet Rich Fibrin is a natural form of aesthetic injectables. PRF is taken from your own blood plasma and can be used topically with microneedling or can be injected into the face to stimulate collagen for skin tightening and skin lightening effects. Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF-BB) is 300x stronger than your own PRF and used similarly. PDGF is a great option to restore the undereye area. Learn More »

PRF EzGel is a 100% natural replacement for Dermal Filler. We use your blood plasma to create a natural gel filler through a heating and cooling process. This EzGel can be injected into the face for volume restoration and collagen stimulation. This product is injected very similarly to a Dermal Filler and may require repeat sessions for optimal results. Learn More »

Hair Restoration» (link to Page)

Hair restoration at Alternative Health Associates involves a combination treatment of PRF scalp injections, nanoneedling of the scalp with topical hair stimulator products and an oral supplement. PRF stimulates the growth of current hair follicles to thicken hair, nanoneedling will stimulate healthy hair growth, and the oral supplement increases microvascular blood supply to the scalp.

Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical, non-invasive anti-aging treatment that helps to correct skin conditions, such as light scarring, discoloration, and sun damage, and create healthy, rejuvenated skin.

Microchanneling/ Microneedling/ Nanoneedling »

We offer both Microchanneling, Microneedling and Nanoneedling which all offer similar results: collagen stimulation, skin tightening, skin brightening, and wrinkle reduction. All of these treatments create small micro channels to the top layer of skin which signals to the body to repair the area with collagen. Enhance your treatment with different topical products. Learn More »

Dermaplaning»

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that uses a surgical blade and feathering strokes at a 45-degree angle to remove build-up of surface dead skin cells and vellus hair on face and neck. By resurfacing the top layer of the skin, this allows your products to penetrate deeper and your makeup to lay flawlessly on the skin!  Learn More »
