If you wish to improve any skin condition, our skin care services are a great option for you! Since we offer a variety of products and modalities to make a difference, we’ll find the best-suited methods to achieve your goals! We choose the products, that give us the results effectively with safe ingredients.

Yes, all facial treatments at Vita Felice require a consultation so we can provide service best suited for your skin conditions and your desired goals. Many advanced modalities including microneedling, skin needling, dermaplaning and LED Light Therapy are advanced treatments even though less invasive when compared to a few other advanced treatments in the market. In order to achieve the best results, we require consultation before booking those appointments. This ensures that your skin is prepared to take this service.

Microneedling is a highly effective and low-risk skin treatment that can help with fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, hyperpigmentation, and scars from acne, surgery, burns, and tattoos.

Microneedling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy or CIT) gently induces controlled micro-injuries to the skin, which triggers the skin’s natural repair process, resulting in production of collagen and elastin.

We offer treatments for all parts of the body, including the scalp, to restore youthful beauty to the décolleté, hands, arms, legs, back, abdomen, and intimate part.

We utilize sterile, single-use needling cartridges for our needling procedure. First, your skin is cleansed and disinfected, and then our technician applies a thin layer of microneedling solution, hyaluronic acid (HA) serum or saline solution to your skin, choosing a personalized setting to match your skin type and condition.

Traditional dermal rolling techniques were often painful, requiring topical anesthetic cream. Today, with the advanced Dp4 device at Vita Felice, there’s simply no comparison—this microneedling treatment is comfortable and virtually pain-free, often without the need for local anesthesia. However, pain tolerance varies. While some may feel a light, sandpaper-like sensation, others feel nothing at all. For those with lower pain tolerance, a numbing option is available to ensure your comfort.

The appointment is 1 hour and 30 minutes, which includes LED Light Therapy and post needling masque. Microneedling time itself can take as little as 15 minutes depending on the size of the area you’re having treated. Please add 30 more minutes if you opt for anesthetic option.

Right after the treatment, your skin will be bright red, but it will go away fairly quickly. The redness usually lasts 1-3 days. Some clients heal completely within 24 hours. Other than redness, you might experience swelling and flakiness before getting smooth and soft skin. You can speed things along by using the skincare products recommended by your aesthetician. We recommend for our clients to go home and relax after the procedure, and avoid sweating for 3 days.

Please refrain from using makeup for at least until Day 3 or preferably 48 hours after the procedure. After that, you can use makeup. However, we recommend using mineral-based products and cleaning applicators.

Once the redness fades, you’ll see a difference as the skin begins to adopt a glow. Visible changes to the skin develop over the course of several weeks. Skin can continue to improve up to 6 months after a series of treatments.

It truly depends on your skin’s condition and treatment needs. Some people will only need one treatment, but for most cases, 3-6 treatments with 4-6 week break in between each, provide the best results. For clients with more significant skin-care concerns, such as burn scars, it is recommended to receive 6-8 sessions. We also recommend other services to combine for the best results, such as chemical peel and LED Light Therapy. After the consultation, we will create your custom plans.

Please come to the service without make-up. For body treatment, please wear something loose and clean.
