Whether you have moles, scars, an unwanted tattoo, or skin tags, you know the nuisance of these complexion blemishers–marking up an otherwise pristine canvas. Thanks to the Dermavel Fibroblast Plasma Pen at Firecracker Beauty Spa, you can say good-bye to skin tags and moles in as little as a single, coffee break session.
This non-invasive, zero downtime, painless procedure zaps the imperfection with electrostatic energy that will cause the skin tag or mole to scab and fall off within two days to a week. As a bonus, the plasma pen generates increased collagen and protein production, leaving the area renewed and more youthful.
Larger, deeper rooted moles and skin tags may require a few treatments, but each treatment only takes about 20 minutes, including cleansing and prep. Tattoo removal takes multiple sessions, but is still quick and painless. Still curious? Watch the short video to see exactly how it works on a mole!
If you’ve considered Botox or even a facelift, but the expense, botulism, and scalpel have you hiding your face, Microneedling may be the answer to your prayers. With zero downtime and no risks from anesthesia or a hospital stay, Microneedling lifts and tightens the skin and can erase surface imperfections and signs of aging. Promoted by the dermatologists at Yale Medicine Plastic Surgery, microneedling is a safe, effective way to improve skin’s appearance and produce results for clients.
What Does It Do?
Using a special pen outfitted with micro-needles, tiny micro-channels are created over the surface of the skin. These micro-channels stimulate the skin’s natural healing response, increasing collagen production and elastin (the proteins in our skin that give it tone and bounce, and naturally deteriorate with age). As a result of the micro-channel healing, the skin generates a new layer of tissue that is firmer and more youthful looking.
“I started seeing a difference in my complexion five days after the first session. After the second session, my skin tone is even better, my make-up goes on smoother, and I’m seeing a difference in my fine lines and childhood scars from chickenpox. I’m definitely microneedling my stomach to erase stretch marks and tighten my tummy.” – F. Torres (2023)
Microneedling Improves the Appearance of:
Aging
Surface scars from acne or textural irregularities and surgeries
Stretch marks
Fine lines and wrinkles
Hair loss and Alopecia
Enlarged pores
UV damage
Rosacea, hyperpigmentation, and Melasma
Uneven skin tone
Loose, sagging skin
Dull, dehydrated skin
By promoting collagen and elastin production, Microneedling generates tighter, smoother, more youthful skin that’s better hydrated and receptive to quality skin care products (increasing the absorption and rate of result). Additionally, pores are minimized, skin tone is evened out, and hair growth is stimulated.
How Does It Work?
After a cleansing process (facial for the face or otherwise for the body) and dual applications of lidocaine to reduce discomfort, the experts at Firecracker will apply hyaluronic acid serum and gently move the top-of-the-line Dr. Pen M8 Microneedling Pen over the skin. After fully covering and treating the area, a jelly mask is applied and left to sit for better absorption of the serum and products. Every client leaves with post-care instructions and products.
Unlike lasers, which may affect skin pigmentation, particularly in individuals with darker skin tone, Microneedling improves skin tone without affecting pigmentation.
Firecracker Beauty Spa is committed to only using and carrying premium products; the Dr. Pen M8 is the most powerful and effective auto micro-needle device on the market so our clients get the best, fastest results available.
How Many Sessions Will I Need and When Will I See Results?
Most clients require three sessions, two to three weeks apart for their first treatment. Maintenance sessions may be done but unlike Botox, which wears off after time and must be redone on a regular basis with more and more injections required each time, Microneedling actually promotes healthier skin growth!
Results become evident after the first week of your first session. Clients report an improvement in their complexion with smoother, firmer, more evenly toned skin before the second session. Because Microneedling works by promoting the natural production of elastin and collagen, improvements continue up to a year after the final session as your skin continues the “healing process” generated by your treatment!
Microneedling Isn’t Just For The Face!
Post-pregnancy stretch marks or loose skin resulting from significant weight loss can be tightened and smoothed with Microneedling, so skip the tummy tuck and Microneedle those stretch marks and C-section scars away! It may also help with hair growth for those with Alopecia.

If you’ve heard the terms “waxing” and “sugaring” used interchangeably, you may be wondering about the difference. Leticia Bailey is a licensed esthetician and certified in both methods. While both are used for body hair removal, the techniques are different…
Sugaring
Sugaring is the preferred method of hair removal at Firecracker Beauty Spa. Using a paste of natural ingredients that usually includes lemon, water, and sugar, hair is removed from the root. The sugaring paste is heated to a taffy-like consistency and handled by the esthetician like putty. Sugaring can be used across any area of the body in most clients and because it’s gentler than waxing, is better for people with sensitive skin.
Pros and…(there aren’t really any cons)
Sugaring is a more natural, gentle method of hair removal. Because the sugar paste doesn’t adhere to skin, there’s very little irritation and because the paste is cooled (enough to be handled by the esthetician) it can’t burn the skin. Sugaring can lightly exfoliate the skin, as it will adhere to dead surface cells, which results in healthier skin that looks renewed. A key difference between waxing and sugaring is the direction of the hair removal. In sugaring, hair is pulled out in the direction of the hair growth. Waxing removes hair in the opposite direction of growth, which can cause breakage.
Waxing
Waxing refers to hair removal using heated wax applied to the body, covered with a strip of cloth, and removed along with the hair down to the root. Waxing has been done since ancient times, with evidence of hairless women in Egypt dating back to 3000 B.C. Waxing is effective for removing large swaths of hair at once, resulting in smooth skin that last for up to 3 weeks.
Pros and Cons
Waxing is versatile and can be done on any area of the body as long a she hair is at least 1/4 inch long. Unlike shaving, which leaves hair stubbly and skin abrasive-feeling, waxing removes hair at the root with new growth that feels softer and finer. Because of the sudden removal of hair, waxing “traumatizes” the hair follicle, which often leads to slower re-growth. Over time, hair grows in slower and slower, so you smoothness last longer and longer!
For some people, waxing can cause irritation and ingrown hairs. If done improperly, waxing can burn the skin or remove the top layer of skin, causing redness and sensitivity. At Firecracker Beauty Spa, skin is carefully prepped and treated to a soothing post-treatment serum to ensure the best results and prevent any irritation or injury.
