At About Face & Body Medical Spa, we are thrilled to offer the innovative AQUAGOLD Fine Touch treatment for individuals in the Katy, TX area. AQUAGOLD Fine Touch is a skin treatment that uses gold-plated microchannels to provide rejuvenating complexion benefits while also integrating injectables, including dermal fillers, vitamins, wrinkle relaxers, or hyaluronic acid serums, directly into the skin. This technique creates collagen development and allows popular injectables to penetrate the skin and enhance your overall complexion.

AQUAGOLD Fine Touch is a revolutionary microneedling device at About Face & Body Medical Spa that offers numerous benefits for the skin.

• It utilizes ultra-thin, gold-plated needles that are smaller than a human hair, ensuring virtually painless treatment.
• The device can be customized to deliver various skin care solutions, such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and growth factors, directly into the skin's dermal layer.
• AQUAGOLD can improve overall skin texture, tone, and hydration, leading to a more radiant and youthful appearance.
• The treatment is suitable for all skin types and can address various concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and enlarged pores.

AQUAGOLD Fine Touch is safe and suitable for most skin types. In fact, ideal candidates are those looking to improve their overall complexion and address specific concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, or dullness. However, it may not be recommended for people with certain health conditions or contraindications, such as active infections or allergies to any of the ingredients used in the injectables. To determine your candidacy for AQUAGOLD Fine Touch, we recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our skilled team members at About Face & Body Medical Spa in Katy, TX. They will assess your skin and medical history to determine the best way to move forward.

Following a consultation and confirmation that you are able to safely have AQUAGOLD treatments, one of our experienced team members will lead you to a private treatment room. Next, your skin will be carefully cleansed and prepped for your minimally invasive procedure, and a local anesthetic will be applied to make the therapy as comfortable as possible. After your skin has been numbed, the handheld AQUAGOLD device will glide over your skin at the desired treatment areas. While that is happening, the platform’s 24-karat gold microchannels will create very tiny “micro-injuries” and deliver your chosen solutions to the skin. The entire microchanneling and injection process should only last about 15 – 30 minutes. Immediately after your treatment, a cold compress or soothing serum may be applied to your skin to help soothe it. Sessions can be repeated every few weeks for optimal results.

After an AQUAGOLD Fine Touch treatment, you can expect minimal downtime with some mild redness or swelling, which typically subsides within a few hours to a day. The treatment delivers a custom blend of skin-enhancing ingredients directly into the skin, resulting in a smoother, more radiant complexion. Most patients notice an immediate glow, with full results developing over the next few days as the skin absorbs the ingredients. To maintain the best results, follow any aftercare instructions provided by our team at About Face & Body Medical Spa, such as avoiding sun exposure and applying recommended skin care products.

Does an AQUAGOLD treatment hurt?

No, most patients don't find an AQUAGOLD Fine Touch treatment painful. Before we begin, a topical anesthetic is applied to the treatment area to keep you comfortable. The gold-plated micropins that deliver the serums into your skin are very small and fine, much smaller than needles used to give injections. If pain is a concern, please feel free to ask questions during your consultation.

Is AQUAGOLD Fine Touch safe?

Yes, for the vast majority of patients, an AQUAGOLD Fine Touch treatment is considered very safe and effective. AQUAGOLD is an FDA-registered device that is used only one time and then thrown away. There is little to no risk of side effects, other than mild skin irritation and redness that typically resolves in a day or two.

How many treatments will I need?

It depends on the condition and health of your skin and your treatment goals. While many can see noticeable improvements in the appearance and health of their skin after only one AQUAGOLD treatment, others may need a series of treatments to achieve their goals. During your consultation at About Face & Body Medical Spa, we will examine your skin, listen to your concerns and goals, and then work with you to create the perfect plan to achieve the best results. If wrinkle relaxers or dermal fillers are included as part of your procedure, then these typically only require one application.

How quickly will I see results after an AQUAGOLD treatment?

It depends on your skin health and the starting condition of your skin. However, in general, most patients can start to see results within about 5 – 7 days. These improvements typically continue to grow as your skin begins to naturally produce more collagen and elastin. With wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers, the results are usually visible within about 3 – 5 days.
