This one is built for the woman who is ready to start supporting her skin, not "fix" it.
You'll love this if:
- You're noticing the first signs of fine lines, softness around the jaw, or a dullness that wasn't there a year ago
- You want to start building collagen now instead of waiting until things feel further along
- Your skincare routine is solid, but you can tell your skin needs more than serums can give it
- You've been curious about microneedling or Aerolase®, but want a way to test the waters before committing to a full program
- You want to age well, look like yourself, and protect the skin quality you already have
This is your fit if you're a Confident Aging client.
If your skin is more acne or active-breakout focused, we'll route you into the Clear Skin Program™. If it's redness, reactivity, or pigment leading the conversation, we'll point you toward the Calm + Even Plan™ instead.
Not sure if this is your starting point? Book a complimentary consult and we'll map your skin properly before you commit to anything.
Your Collagen Starter Treatment lives in the Correct phase of The Glow Lab Method. It's the entry point into structured collagen work, designed for clients who want to feel what clinical results actually look like before committing to a full program.
The treatment.
We pair Dermapen® 4 Microneedling with Aerolase® NeoSkin® in a single, considered session. Microneedling triggers your skin's natural collagen response by creating controlled microchannels. Aerolase® NeoSkin® follows behind to deliver gentle, non-ablative laser energy that supports tone, reduces redness, and adds another layer of collagen stimulation. Together, they do more than either does alone.
What's included:
- 1 Dermapen® 4 Microneedling session
- 1 Aerolase® NeoSkin® session for tone and collagen support
- Numbing applied before microneedling for your comfort
- A custom homecare plan to support healing
- A skin review so we know how to pace your next collagen phase
Why this structure works. Collagen takes around 12 weeks to fully build after a treatment, and the right pacing is what determines whether you see real, structural change or just a temporary glow. Starter Treatment is the introduction. The program lanes are where compounding results live, and we'll always tell you honestly which path is right for your skin.
Your timeline.
Most clients notice a fresh, lit-from-within glow within the first 3 to 4 weeks. The structural work, firmer feel, smoother texture, and softened fine lines, builds quietly across 12 weeks as new collagen develops. A single starter treatment gives you a real read on how your skin responds, which is exactly the point.
The honest version. Collagen is patience work. One treatment will give you a beautiful first impression, but compounding results live inside a structured program. If you love what you see, we'll talk about where to go next.
FAQs
When will I see results?
You'll see early brightness and glow within a few weeks. Firmer, smoother, more refined skin builds over 12 weeks as collagen develops underneath the surface.
Is this enough, or do I need filler or Botox?
This treatment supports your own skin quality, tone, firmness, and texture, which is the foundation everything else sits on. Many of our Confident Aging clients use this work alongside injectables, and many use it on its own. We'll talk through what makes sense for your goals at consult.
What's the downtime?
Expect mild redness and a flushed look for 24 to 48 hours, with possible light flaking by day 3 or 4. Most clients are camera-ready within a few days and back in makeup within 24 hours.
Can I do this if I'm already on a skincare routine?
Yes. In fact, a solid routine makes this treatment work harder. We'll review your products at consult and adjust pre and post care so your skin is set up to respond beautifully.
What about pregnancy or breastfeeding?
We do not perform microneedling or laser treatments during pregnancy. If you're breastfeeding, we'll review your timing and goals at consult and let you know what's safe and appropriate.
Your next step.
Book a complimentary consult. We map your skin, talk through your goals, and decide together whether the Starter Treatment is the right first step or whether a structured program will get you where you want to go faster. No pressure, no upsell, just clarity.
Every plan at The Glow Lab is built specifically for your skin, your phase, and your goals. Because of that, all services, programs, and memberships are final sale.
But here is what we will always do for you.
If your consult reveals that the program you purchased is not the most appropriate pathway for your skin, the value moves to studio credit toward the right plan. We will never run you through a program your skin is not ready for. That is our ethical pacing standard, not a courtesy.
Studio credits. No cash value, non-transferable, usable across services, programs, memberships, and retail. Expiration as noted at the time of issue.
Retail. Unopened, unused products are returnable within 14 days for studio credit, with proof of purchase. Opened items, gift cards, and promotional items are final sale.
Memberships. Billed monthly with a 6-month commitment for treatment consistency.
Damaged on arrival. Email us within 7 days and we will replace it.
