AQUAGOLD TREATMENTS IN CALGARY
Aquagold Micro-Infusion Treatments
Looking for a treatment to boost skin radiance without the downtime of more invasive procedures? Aquagold Fine Touch may be the ideal option.
This advanced micro-infusion system is designed to deliver a customized blend of ingredients directly into the skin to improve texture, tone, and hydratio
What is Aquagold Fine Touch?
Aquagold is a micro-channeling device that uses 24-karat gold-plated needles, each thinner than a human hair. Unlike traditional injections which place product deep under the skin to add volume, Aquagold "stamps" a solution into the superficial layers of the skin (the dermis).
The unique benefit of Aquagold is its ability to deliver a personalized blend of ingredients. Depending on your goals, your clinician may create a solution containing:
Hyaluronic Acid (HA): To provide deep hydration and smooth the skin's surface.
Micro-Neuromodulators: A diluted amount of neuromodulator solution to help reduce the appearance of pores and oil production without "freezing" facial movement.
Vitamins and Antioxidants: To support overall skin health and brightness.
What Can This Treatment Address?
Aquagold is an excellent option for patients looking to refine their skin quality. It is often used to address:
Enlarged pores and excess oil production.
Fine lines and superficial crepiness.
Dryness and dull skin tone.
Mild acne scarring.
Important Disclaimer: Individual results vary based on skin condition and the specific ingredients used. This treatment addresses skin quality and texture; it does not replace volume-enhancing fillers or standard neuromodulator treatments for deep wrinkles.
What to Expect During the Treatment
This treatment is suitable for almost all skin types and ages. It is often chosen by patients preparing for a special event who want a "glow" with minimal downtime.
It may not be suitable for individuals with:
Active acne or skin infections.
Known allergies to gold or metals.
Pregnancy or breastfeeding (depending on the ingredients used).
Who Is a Good Candidate?
The treatment is generally well-tolerated and comfortable.
Consultation: We begin by assessing your skin and determining the ideal "cocktail" of ingredients for your specific needs.
Procedure: The device is gently stamped over the treatment area (face, neck, or décolleté). The sensation is often described as a light prickling.
No Downtime: One of the key advantages of Aquagold is the minimal recovery time. You may experience mild redness (similar to a glow after a workout) for a few hours, but most patients return to normal activities immediately.
Before & After
Individual results may vary and are not guaranteed. A consultation is required to determine if you are a suitable candidate for treatment.
FAQs
-
While both use needles, they are different procedures. Microneedling creates micro-injuries to stimulate collagen repair, often resulting in a few days of redness. Aquagold is a micro-infusion device focused on delivering product into the skin with less trauma and almost zero downtime.
-
No. When neuromodulators are used in an Aquagold mixture, they are placed superficially in the skin, not into the muscle. This targets pores and redness but does not affect your ability to make facial expressions.
-
Results typically appear within 3-7 days as the ingredients take effect. The benefits of the infusion generally last 3 to 4 months. A series of treatments may be recommended for long-term skin quality improvement.
