Simply Radiant blends the latest in microneedling technology, Eclipse MicroPen® EVO, with the rejuvenation power of Vivier Ultimage.
Free Zensa numbing cream and post treatment lotion sample is included with the purchase of a microneedling treatment.
Eclipse MicroPen® EVO treats age spots, blackheads, hyper-pigmentation (melasma), acne spots and scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and improves the appearance of dull, “tired-looking” skin. It can be used on the face, neck, décolleté’, arms, hands, legs, abdomen, and neck—the areas that often reveal the most tell-tale signs of aging and sun damage.
A sterile cartridge containing 14 tiny micro-points is attached to the Eclipse MicroPen® EVO. In a single motion, the pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding in one direction until the entire treatment area has been covered. Prior to your treatment, a numbing cream is applied to minimize any discomfort.
Vivier Ultimage is used as a lubricant during the process which is then driven deep into the epidermis to help stimulate rejuvenation.
Because most micro-needling sessions only take about 15 to 30 minutes, any discomfort is temporary and is felt only during the procedure itself.
Ultimage is an innovative dual-action complex with Neuropeptides and Hyaluronic Acid, enhanced with water binding molecules and glycol technology. Ultimage works synergistically to soften expression lines and wrinkles, and boost hydration for a smoother, ageless complexion. Ideal for all skin types.
The total healing time from an Eclipse MicroPen® EVO procedure depends on the pen position used and the number of overlapping passes. On average, clients experience redness for two to four days. Some clients heal completely within 24 hours. Most clients report noticing a redness to the skin following the procedure.
Clients can see a “glow” to their skin as soon as the procedure is finished, and visible changes to the skin develop over the course of several weeks. Results continue to improve up to six months after the treatment. Some clients only require a single treatment in one visit just once a year to achieve noticeable results. However, we recommend that clients receive a series of two to three treatments space six to eight weeks apart for best results. For clients with significant skincare concerns, such as deep acne scars, it is recommended to receive six to eight sessions at six-week intervals.
Simply Radiant offers a full range of services to address skin issues including Chemical Peels, Enzyme Peels, and Erbium Pixel Laser.
Apply numbing cream 60 minutes before your appointment. Zensa numbing cream is provided to you at your initial consultation for microneedling.

No shaving the day of the procedure to avoid skin irritation. If there is dense hair present in the treatment area, closely shave the area the day before you arrive to your appointment. Moles, warts or actinic (solar) keratosis cannot be treated.

- Use Tylenol only as needed for any soreness.
DAY 1-3
A sunburn-like effect is normal. The skin will feel tight, dry, sensitive to touch. Treat skin gently washing with a gentle cleanser, cool water, using hands only and pat dry no earlier than 4 hours after treatment. Redness or sensitivity might well be present.

- May only use Oxygenetix Make-up post procedure or Mineral makeup after 24 hours
- Sleep on your back with head of bed elevated to minimize swelling or pain as needed
DAY 2-7
- Peeling may start 3-5 days after treatment. You will notice skin dryness and flaking. This is due to an increased turnover of skin cells. Do not pick, scratch or scrub at treated skin! Allow old skin to flake off naturally and keep moisturized AT ALL TIMES with Hyaluronic serum.
DAY 5-7
You may restart your regular skin care products and Retin-A once your skin is no longer irritated.
Many clients have noticed continued skin improvement for months following the last treatment.
- For best results, we recommend follow up and repeat treatments in 4-6 weeks and a series of 3-5 treatments depending on your personalized care plan.
