Signature Champagne Facial
Social media continues to take the world by storm as the new version of Google for all our searching needs. It’s our gateway for knowledge, the latest trends, what’s hot or not and what’s popular with celebrities. All of which in turn becomes what’s popular with our patients! With Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP), Beauty Boosters and other microneedling treatments becoming more and more popular, trending in the social media space with over 3.5 million tags, we thought we’d share everything there is to possibly know about Cosmedica’s infamous Champagne Facial.
What is the Champagne Facial?
A combination of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and Beauty Booster microneedling mixed with a cocktail of antioxidants, minerals, vitamins and hyaluronic acid, it is the best treatment available on the market today to maximize your efficiency in one treatment and deliver instant skin health, glow and antiaging benefits.
What Does the Champagne Facial Treat?
The Champagne Facial is a great option to treat fine lines and wrinkles, “tech neck,” crepey skin, enlarged pores, aging, dullness, and tired skin.
Who Is a Candidate For the Champagne Facial?
Anyone and everyone who wants to improve the appearance of their skin! From 20-year-olds wanting to proactively treat signs of aging to our 50-year-olds and older wanting to reverse signs of aging.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
While we recommend a series of 3 treatments every 4 weeks to target specific concerns and give the best possible results, a standalone treatment can be done to give your skin an added boost for an event or special occasion.
How Do I Prep for My Champagne Facial?
There is not much prep work needed for the Champagne Facial. We ask patients to come in make-up free and make sure they avoid anything in their diet that could increase their risk of bruising. These include:
Alcohol
Vitamin E
Fish oil
Green tea
Aspirin
Ibuprofen
Blood thinners
What Is a Champagne Facial Treatment Like?
When you come in for treatment, one of our experienced nurses will get you set up in the treatment room comfortably. After answering any questions you may have, you will have a topical anesthetic applied to the treatment area to numb the skin and provide some comfort throughout.
We then draw a small sample of your blood, spin it in our centrifuge, separate the “liquid gold:” plasma, and mix it with our special cocktail of hyaluronic acid, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. This recipe makes up the Champagne Facial cocktail that is then precisely injected into the dermis of your skin – the layer where all the collagen & elastin fibers live. This is food for your skin and delivers instant results!
The microneedling will cause some injury to promote collagen during the skin healing process and allows for the product to be delivered to the appropriate depth in the tissue for maximum improvement, resulting in the best possible results.
Many of our patients tolerate this treatment very well with the majority expressing no discomfort at all.
How Long Does the Treatment Take?
The treatment itself will take our nurses about 45-60 minutes to complete we start by targeting a global treatment area and then fine tuning and treating any specific concerns. A cooling sheet mask will be applied at the end to offer some comfort and minimize any redness from the topical cream. We then apply a special coating of our amazing growth factor product from the ZO Skin Health skincare product line to complete your treatment.
What Do I Need to Do After My Champagne Facial?
Nothing is required post-treatment. Patients may have some small broken capillary-style bruises which can be covered easily with makeup or concealer. Any longer lasting bruising will heal quicker by taking arnica tablets picked up at their local health food store.

The Glow Getter Facial
Get That Glow with a Glow Getter Facial
A collagen stimulator, texture minimizer and sun damage reversal treatment in one – this facial truly does it all!
What Is a Glow Getter Facial?
The Glow Getter Facial is a combination of treatments that, when paired together, provides pigmentation control and texture elimination. It also increases collagen and gives a youthful glow from within – and all in ONE treatment.
The treatment begins with a BBL laser light treatment that targets pigmentation and evens the complexion to give a more seamless appearance to the skin.
The next step requires the use of platelets (PRP), which are obtained via a simple blood draw, that we reinject throughout the full face via a microneedling technique. We will also specifically inject the platelets into any deeper wrinkles, hollow areas, and more textured areas of your skin for a more aggressive and well-rounded treatment.
The combination of treatments really is a game changer and slots easily into any treatment plan men and women of all ages and skin types.
What To Expect After Treatment
Most common side effects post-treatment include:
Darkening of sun damage (which we want!)
Pinkness of the skin
Mild swelling
Potential for pinpoint bruising after the PRP portion of the treatment
Most of our patients will find that their skin settles down after a couple of days and any post-treatment experiences can be covered with a concealer, like the Glo Skin Beauty Camouflage that we have available in our clinic.
The result in a matter of days is evident in this before and after picture of our patient – radiant, healthy, and BEAUTIFUL skin.
How Many Treatments Do I Need?
We recommend 1-2 treatments a year, in combination with your existing treatment schedule, would be a great addition to any skincare plan. Those with more intense skin improvement goals may want to do 2-3 treatments every 3-4 weeks. We recommend that patients get their package of treatments completed before the start of summer due to the laser component of the Glow Getter Facial.
Does It Replace My Injectable Appointments?
Not at all. This treatment will fit seamlessly into your routine to help elevate the results from your BOTOX® Cosmetic and dermal filler injectable treatment plan.
Do I Need to Make Any Changes to My Skincare Routine?
As with all the treatments we offer, a well-rounded skincare regime is a MUST. Post-Glow Getter is no exception. While we want you to continue with SPF daily, a daily cleanse, tone and hydrate routine, adding something like the ZO Skin Health Enzymatic Peel will aid in sloughing off the pigmentation that is lifted while revitalizing dullness. This is a great compliment for the Glow Getter.
Who Is a Candidate for a Glow Getter Facial?
Anyone and everyone who wants glowing skin is a candidate. That’s the beauty of the Glow Getter Facial.
