ProCell Microchanneling
How Does ProCell Microchanneling Work?
The ProCell Difference
- Precision microchanneling technology
- Professional regenerative growth factor serum
- DNA repair enzymes
- Hyaluronic acid
- Medical-grade post-treatment skincare
The synergy between the device and the serum allows the skin to heal more efficiently while maximizing collagen stimulation and minimizing unnecessary inflammation.
ProCell Growth Factor Serum
Immediately following the microchanneling treatment, ProCell’s professional serum is applied while the microchannels are still open.
The serum contains:
- Recombinant growth factors
- Cytokines
- DNA repair enzymes
- Hyaluronic acid
- Skin-repair peptides
These regenerative proteins mimic the natural signaling molecules involved in skin repair. Rather than adding new cells to the skin, they help support communication between skin cells during the healing process, encouraging collagen production and tissue regeneration. The formulation contains no human or animal cells, DNA, blood, or tissue.

Is ProCell Safe?
Yes.
ProCell Microchanneling is suitable for most skin types and tones when performed by a trained professional. The precision stamping technique minimizes unnecessary tissue trauma and reduces the risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation compared with more aggressive needling methods. A consultation is always recommended to determine whether the treatment is appropriate for your skin.

Pre-Treatment Instructions
To ensure the safest treatment and the best possible results, please follow these guidelines before your ProCell Microchanneling appointment:
1 Week Before Treatment
Avoid prolonged sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanning products.
Do not wax, thread, or use depilatory creams on the treatment area.
Avoid other skin resurfacing treatments such as chemical peels, dermaplaning, laser treatments, or aggressive exfoliation unless approved by your provider.
If you are prone to cold sores (herpes simplex), inform your practitioner. Preventive antiviral medication may be recommended before treatment.
3–5 Days Before Treatment
Discontinue the use of retinoids or prescription vitamin A products (Retin-A®, tretinoin, adapalene, tazarotene).
Avoid exfoliating products containing glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, AHAs, BHAs, benzoyl peroxide, or scrubs.
Avoid applying products that may irritate the skin.
24 Hours Before Treatment
Avoid alcohol, as it may increase bruising and sensitivity.
Stay well hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
Avoid strenuous exercise that may leave your skin irritated or dehydrated.
Men should shave the treatment area at least 12 hours before the appointment if needed. Do not shave immediately before treatment.
On the Day of Your Appointment
Arrive with clean skin free of makeup, sunscreen, lotions, perfumes, or other skincare products.
Inform your practitioner of any recent illnesses, medications, new allergies, or changes in your health.
Notify your provider if you have developed a cold sore, rash, sunburn, or any skin irritation in the treatment area.
Before Your Treatment
A consultation will be completed before your first session to review your medical history, evaluate your skin, discuss your goals, and determine whether ProCell Microchanneling is the most appropriate treatment for you. A personalized treatment plan will be created based on your skin type and concerns.
Following these simple preparation steps helps ensure that your skin is in the best possible condition before your ProCell Microchanneling treatment. Proper preparation minimizes the risk of unnecessary irritation or sensitivity, supports your skin’s natural healing response, and helps create the ideal environment for a safe and effective treatment experience.
Your commitment to these pre-treatment instructions plays an important role in achieving the best possible results. By preparing your skin as recommended, you can enhance your comfort during the procedure, promote optimal healing, and maximize the collagen-stimulating benefits of your ProCell Microchanneling treatment, leaving your skin healthier, smoother, and more radiant.

Proper aftercare is essential for optimal healing and the best possible results following your ProCell Microchanneling treatment.
Immediately After Treatment (First 24 Hours)
