The Treatments
Curated for natural, refined results.
Prescriptive Skin Systems
Obagi Medical-Grade Skincare
Obagi is one of the most respected medical-grade skincare lines in the world. Each prescriptive system combines clinically proven actives — including hydroquinone, retinol, vitamin C, and tretinoin — to address hyperpigmentation, melasma, sun damage, fine lines, acne, and uneven tone at the deeper cellular level.
Common treatment goals include fading stubborn pigmentation, evening overall skin tone, supporting collagen production, and creating long-term, measurable skin health. Candidates include adults serious about prevention, correction, and maintenance — particularly those navigating melasma, persistent dark spots, photodamage, or the early signs of aging.
Every regimen is personalized in our Union, KY suite based on your skin biology, lifestyle, and tolerance. You will receive a clear morning and evening protocol, photo-documented progress check-ins, and adjustments as your skin transforms. Visible brightening typically appears in a few weeks, with transformative pigment correction and refinement at 12–16 weeks. Obagi pairs beautifully with our in-suite peels, microneedling, and laser treatments.
- Fades hyperpigmentation and melasma
- Smooths fine lines and texture
- Brightens and evens skin tone
- Prescriptive, results-driven formulations
Ideal For Anyone serious about long-term skin health and clinical-grade results.
Results: Visible brightening in weeks, transformative improvement in 12–16 weeks.
Resurface & Renew
Chemical Peels
At Ablaze Aesthetics we offer two of the most respected medical-grade peels available — the VI Peel and BioRePeel — each tailored to your skin goals, lifestyle, and downtime tolerance.
VI Peel. A medium-depth blend of TCA, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and vitamin C that dramatically corrects hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne and acne scarring, sun damage, and the early signs of aging. Expect 3–5 days of light-to-medium peeling followed by smoother, brighter, more even skin.
BioRePeel. A next-generation, biphasic TCA peel powered by amino acids, vitamins, and GABA that resurfaces, hydrates, and stimulates collagen with virtually no visible peeling and zero true downtime — making it the perfect "red carpet" peel for glow, texture, fine lines, and pore refinement.
Together, these two peels let us customize a protocol for every skin type, from a quick lunchtime refresh to a true transformative correction.
- VI Peel: corrects pigmentation, melasma & acne scars
- BioRePeel: instant glow with no visible peeling
- Stimulates collagen and refines texture
- Brightens, evens tone, and clears congestion
Ideal For Hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne & acne scars, dullness, fine lines, sun damage — with options for every downtime preference.
Results: BioRePeel: immediate glow, zero downtime. VI Peel: 3–5 days of peeling, transformative results in 2–4 weeks. Series of 3–6 recommended for correction.
Collagen Induction
Microneedling
Clinical microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a precise medical-grade device to create thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin. This triggers a natural healing cascade that stimulates new collagen and elastin production deep within the dermis — the foundation of firm, smooth, resilient skin.
Common goals include refining enlarged pores, smoothing rough texture, softening acne scars and box scars, fading stretch marks, and improving overall firmness, fine lines, and tone. Candidates include adults concerned about texture, scarring, early aging, or anyone looking to build long-term skin quality without aggressive resurfacing.
Topical numbing makes the session comfortable, and treatment is fully customizable based on your skin's tolerance and goals. Expect mild redness and a sun-kissed flush for 24–48 hours. Visible improvement begins around four to six weeks as new collagen builds, and a series of three monthly sessions is most often recommended for transformative results.
- Stimulates collagen and elastin
- Refines pores and texture
- Softens acne scars and stretch marks
- Improves fine lines and tone
Ideal For Texture, pores, scarring, and early signs of aging.
Results: Visible improvement in 4–6 weeks; series of 3 spaced monthly recommended.
The Ultimate Rejuvenator
Microneedling with PRP
Microneedling with PRP pairs clinical microneedling with platelet-rich plasma drawn from a small sample of your own blood. The plasma is concentrated into a powerful elixir of growth factors and applied to the skin during and after microneedling, where it absorbs deeply through the freshly created micro-channels.
The combination amplifies the body's natural healing and collagen response, delivering noticeably more glow, firmness, and texture improvement than microneedling alone. Common goals include comprehensive facial rejuvenation, brightening under-eye hollows, softening fine lines, and supporting acne scar improvement — often described as the "vampire facial."
Candidates include adults wanting transformative skin rejuvenation using their body's own regenerative biology. Topical numbing keeps the session comfortable. Expect 24–48 hours of redness and minor swelling. A subtle glow appears within days, with firmness and texture improvements building over three to six months. A series of three sessions is most often recommended for dramatic, long-lasting results.
- Amplifies microneedling results
- Uses your body's own growth factors
- Major boost in glow and firmness
- Improves dark circles and hollows
Ideal For Anyone wanting next-level skin rejuvenation and dramatic glow.
Results: Glow visible in days; collagen and firmness build over 3–6 months.

Frequently asked.
What are the benefits of microneedling?
+
Microneedling stimulates your skin's natural collagen and elastin, refining pores, smoothing texture, softening scars, and improving fine lines and tone — with minimal downtime.
What is PRP microneedling?
+
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is concentrated from a small sample of your own blood. Applied during microneedling, the growth factors supercharge healing and rejuvenation, delivering more dramatic glow, firmness, and results than microneedling alone.
How do chemical peels improve skin?
+
We offer two medical-grade peels: the VI Peel, a medium-depth blend that dramatically corrects pigmentation, melasma, acne scarring, sun damage, and early aging with 3–5 days of light peeling; and BioRePeel, a biphasic TCA peel that delivers instant glow, collagen stimulation, and texture refinement with virtually no peeling and zero true downtime. We'll match the right peel — or a series — to your goals, skin type, and schedule.
Why use medical-grade skincare?
+
Medical-grade products like Obagi contain higher concentrations of clinically proven actives and are dispensed only through licensed providers. They penetrate deeper and produce real, measurable results that drugstore skincare cannot.
How long until I see results?
+
Many treatments produce visible glow within days. True transformation — pigmentation correction, collagen rebuilding, scar improvement — typically takes 12 weeks of consistent care.
Is microneedling painful, and is there downtime?
+
Topical numbing is applied before treatment, so most clients describe microneedling as a mild prickling or vibrating sensation rather than true pain. Expect 24–48 hours of redness and a sun-kissed flush, with most clients comfortable returning to work the next day.
How is BioRePeel different from the VI Peel?
+
BioRePeel is a biphasic TCA peel designed to refresh, hydrate, and stimulate collagen with virtually no visible peeling and zero true downtime — ideal for a quick glow before an event. The VI Peel is a medium-depth blend that creates 3–5 days of light-to-medium peeling and is better suited for correcting deeper pigmentation, melasma, and acne scarring.
Can I combine advanced skincare with injectables or laser treatments?
+
Yes. Medical-grade skincare, peels, and microneedling layer beautifully with injectables and Venus Versa Pro laser treatments. We'll help you sequence them safely so each treatment supports and enhances the next.
Do you offer advanced skincare consultations in Northern Kentucky?
+
Yes. Every regimen starts with a complimentary, private consultation in our Union, KY suite — convenient for clients across Florence, Burlington, Hebron, Independence, and the Cincinnati area. We review your skin history, goals, and lifestyle to build a customized plan.
