Where deeper correction meets long-term transformation
Advanced treatments are designed to remodel the skin at a structural level,stimulating collagen, improving skin integrity, and correcting concerns that require more than surface-level treatment. This is where we go beyond maintenance and into true skin transformation.
​
Whether you’re targeting signs of aging, acne scarring, or texture that hasn’t improved with other treatments, this is where we move into deeper correction and more advanced results.​​​​​
Non-Chemical
Spicule Peels
The Breakdown:
​Natures Microneedling
​
Spicules are microscopic, needle-like structures derived from natural sources like sea sponges or corals.
How they work: When applied to the skin, these spicules create tiny pathways, similar to microneedling, to promote collagen production and cell turnover.
No chemicals: Unlike traditional chemical peels that use acids to exfoliate, this method uses a mechanical approach by gently exfoliating the skin with the spicules themselves.
Benefits: This type of peel helps improve skin texture, tone, and overall radiance. It can also help with concerns like acne and scarring.
Minimal downtime: Compared to some chemical peels, spicule peels often have less downtime, meaning you can typically return to your normal activities relatively quickly.
​
Think of it like this:
Instead of using harsh chemicals to dissolve dead skin cells, you're using tiny natural tools to stimulate the skin's natural renewal process. ​​​​

1
Stimulate collagen. Refine texture. Strengthen the skin.
What is Microneedling?
If your skin feels stuck, fine lines lingering, acne scars not fading, texture isn't smooth, microneedling is the reset your skin needs.
Also known as collagen induction therapy, medical microneedling works by creating controlled micro-channels in the skin that trigger your body’s natural healing response. This process stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping skin repair itself from the inside out.
The result?
Smoother texture, improved tone, softened lines, and visible improvement in acne scarring.
​
Why we’re different at CCA
Not all microneedling is created equal, and the device truly matters. At Classic Complexion Aesthetics, we use the Exceed medical microneedling device, the first FDA-cleared system approved to treat both facial wrinkles and acne scars.
Clinical results speak for themselves:
• 88% of patients see significant improvement in acne scarring
• 90% see a noticeable reduction in wrinkles
This means safer treatments, more consistent results, and real skin changes, not just a temporary glow.

Deep, natural renewal. Reset the skin from within.
Often referred to as “liquid microneedles,” spicules offer a corrective alternative to traditional chemical peels. Delivered through targeted massage, these micro-spicules create controlled stimulation within the skin, triggering increased circulation, oxygenation, and accelerated renewal.
As they activate within the skin, they support collagen production, improve pigmentation, and refine overall texture, working beyond the surface to restore healthier skin function.
​

What is RF Microneedling?
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling takes traditional microneedling to the next level by delivering controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the skin. This advanced technology creates precise micro-channels while gently heating the deeper layers of tissue to stimulate collagen and elastin, where true skin tightening happens.
​
The result?
Firmer, smoother, more lifted skin with visible improvement in laxity, texture, wrinkles, and scarring. By working below the surface, RF Microneedling delivers more powerful, longer-lasting results than microneedling alone, making it ideal for clients seeking advanced rejuvenation and structural skin support.​
​
What areas can be treated?
Microneedling isn’t just for the face; it’s a versatile treatment for areas where skin aging, texture, or scarring are most noticeable:
-
Face: Smooths texture, softens fine lines, and improves overall tone
-
Neck: Helps address crepey skin and loss of firmness
-
Décolletage: Improves sun damage, lines, and uneven texture
-
Hands: Rejuvenates aging skin and improves texture
-
Scars & Stretch Marks: Visibly softens acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks on the body
​
Who is this for?
If you're seeking advanced skin tightening and structural rejuvenation, RF Microneedling is for you. Best for laxity, deeper wrinkles, scarring, and loss of firmness requiring deeper collagen and elastin stimulation.​
