Velda Salazar, esthetician at La Vida in Albuquerque
Personalized skincare. A real conversation. Your goals.

The treatment

Small spicules.
A different approach.

Liquid Needling uses microscopic natural spicules rather than the needles of a conventional microneedling device. Velda offers this facial for clients exploring a smoother-looking texture and a luminous, glass-skin appearance.

“Glass skin” describes the look you are working toward. It does not mean the treatment contains glass, and it is not a guarantee of a particular outcome.

This is its own service — not another name for a hydration facial or device microneedling. Your skin and goals guide the choice.

Before you book

Your questions,
considered.

What does Liquid Needling cost?

Liquid Needling is $245 for a 30-minute appointment with Velda. Review the current service details in the booking portal before confirming your visit.

How is it different from microneedling?

Liquid Needling uses microscopic natural spicules rather than a conventional microneedling device. The methods are different; one should not be presented as a guaranteed equivalent to the other. Ask Velda which option makes sense for your goals.

Is there any actual glass in the treatment?

No glass is used. “Glass skin” is a description of a smooth, luminous appearance, not an ingredient or a promise of a particular result.

What should I expect afterward?

Recovery and the way your skin feels after treatment can vary. Before booking around an event, ask Velda about expected sensitivity, visible changes and aftercare. Your treatment comes with guidance specific to your skin; it is not advertised as a zero-downtime procedure.

Is Liquid Needling right for my skin?

Start with a conversation about your skin, recent treatments and current skincare routine. Velda will assess whether this facial fits your needs or recommend a different starting point. Discuss individual suitability directly with Velda before booking.

Is Liquid Needling the same as a hydration facial?

No. Liquid Needling and Advanced Hydration Facial are separate services on Velda’s menu. Choose Liquid Needling in the booking portal for the spicule-based facial described here.
