Collagen is the secret behind skin that looks smooth, firm, and youthful—but as we age, our body naturally produces less of it. That’s why so many clients at CLEO Skin + Laser in Minneapolis ask us: “How can I boost collagen without surgery or injectables?”
The good news? There are non-invasive, clinically proven treatments that stimulate your body to make more collagen on its own—helping to soften fine lines, improve texture, and restore a healthy, natural glow. Here are our top three favorite options:
🔬 1. RF Microneedling
Why we love it:
RF Microneedling combines the power of tiny needles with gentle radiofrequency energy. As the needles create microscopic channels in the skin, the heat from radiofrequency further stimulates your body’s wound-healing response—supercharging collagen and elastin production.
Benefits:
✅ Improves skin texture and firmness
✅ Minimizes the look of pores and acne scars
✅ Gradual, natural-looking results that keep improving over months
At CLEO, we recommend a series of treatments (usually spaced 4–6 weeks apart) for best results.
✨ 2. Laser Facials (Including ND:YAG and Pico Lasers)
Why we love them:
Laser facials deliver controlled energy into the skin, encouraging collagen remodeling without damaging the surface. Our ND:YAG and Pico laser treatments are gentle, require minimal downtime, and work for a wide range of skin types.
Benefits:
✅ Subtle firming and tightening effect
✅ Brighter, clearer skin tone
✅ Great as maintenance between deeper treatments
Think of laser facials as a workout for your skin—consistent sessions keep collagen active over time.
🌟 3. Photofacials
Why we love them:
Photofacials (also known as IPL or intense pulsed light) are best known for fading sun spots and redness—but they also help stimulate collagen in the dermis.
Benefits:
✅ More even skin tone
✅ Smoother, slightly firmer texture
✅ Works well as part of a broader anti-aging plan
Photofacials are a great choice if you want to target both pigmentation and mild laxity.
✏️ Final Thoughts
All three treatments work by awakening your skin’s natural collagen production—giving you fresher, firmer, and younger-looking skin over time without needles, fillers, or downtime.
At CLEO Skin + Laser, we can help you choose the right option (or combination) based on your skin goals, timeline, and budget.
