Why Some Microneedling Costs $700 (and Some Doesn't Work)

Play Episode

S3E11 Why does microneedling cost $199 at one spa and $700 at another? Three estheticians and a cosmetologist break down what's actually different.

----------

Lena, Georgia, Kristin, and Shelby pull apart everything most spas won't tell you about microneedling — what it actually does to your skin, why some at-home pens "chicken scratch" your face, and where that massive price gap really comes from. If you've been Googling needle depths and YouTube reaction videos, watch this first.
