1228 Protocol™ | Sweet XVI™

At Niche, we exclusively offer the 1228™ and Sweet XVI™ Protocols, founded by Dr. Joni Collins—advanced regimens designed to work in harmony with your skin’s natural 28-day renewal cycle. This is the time your skin takes to regenerate new cells, and by precisely timing treatments within this cycle, we help retrain your skin to behave more youthful— stimulating collagen, refining texture, and enhancing overall radiance.


Each visit alternates between chemical peels and microneedling to optimize skin renewal every 28 days to mimic skin's natural cycle.


Sweet XVI™ is a curated four-month series of 4 treatments where visible transformation begins, while 1228™ is the full twelve-month journey for deeper correction and lasting skin health.


Available exclusively at Niche.

FAQs

  • WHO IS THIS PROTOCOL DESIGNED FOR?

    This protocol is ideal for clients who want more than a single treatment- it's for those ready to invest in skin health, collagen support, and long-term rejuvenation rather than quick fixes. 

  • WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?

    Results build over time and may include improved skin texture, radiance, hydration, and overall skin firmness. Because it is regenerative in nature, results continue to improve with consistency. 

  • WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SWEET XVI™ AND THE 1228™ PROTOCOL?

    Sweet XVI is a 4-month foundational protocol designed to create visible skin change in a short period of time. It follows a structured cycle of alternating chemical peels and microneedling every 28 days to stimulate consistent skin renewal.


    The 1228 Protocol is a 12-month commitment focused on deeper, long-term regenerative change and maintenance. It builds on the results from Sweet XVI for sustained improvement over time.


    Sweet XVI is often the ideal starting point, as the 4-month mark is where most clients begin to see noticeable transformation—many then continue into the 1228 Protocol for long-term results.

  • WHAT IF I CAN'T COME EXACTLY EVERY 28 DAYS?

    No need to worry—life happens, and we understand schedules, travel, and timing can vary.


    The ideal cadence is every 28 days to support the skin’s natural renewal cycle, similar to how it functioned in our 20s. However, being a few days to about a week outside of that window will not negatively impact your results.


    Consistency over time matters far more than perfect timing, and we’ll always work with your schedule to keep your protocol on track.

VI Peel (Chemical Peel)

Chemical peels at Niche are designed to safely and effectively improve skin tone,

texture, and overall skin health. We feature the VI Peel by Vitality Institute, a medical-grade peel suitable for all skin types and fully customizable to your unique skin concerns and goals. With minimal downtime, it’s an ideal option for those looking to refresh and brighten their skin without a lengthy recovery.


For beginners or anyone starting their skin journey, the VI Peel is a great entry point—helping to improve clarity, stimulate collagen, and build a stronger, healthier

foundation for long-term results.

FAQs

  • WHO SHOULD GET A CHEMICAL PEEL?

    VI Peel is ideal for individuals seeking to improve skin texture and address concerns like acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. 


    Suitable for those looking for a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime, VI Peel offers a safe and effective solution for skin rejuvenation.

  • IS THIS SUITABLE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN?

    Yes. Our peel of choice is VI Peel by Vitality Institute. 


    The VI Peel is designed to be safe and effective for all skin types, including sensitive skin and Fitzpatrick types I–VI.


    It is a medical-grade, yet well-balanced peel that can be customized based on your skin’s tolerance and concerns. During your consultation, we assess your skin to ensure it’s appropriate and select the right formulation for your needs.

  • WHAT IS THE DOWNTIME FOLLOWING A VI PEEL?

    Downtime after a VI Peel is minimal, but light peeling typically begins around day 3 and lasts through day 7. 


    While most daily activities can be resumed right away, it's important to avoid sweating, heavy workouts, and sun exposure for at least 7 days to ensure optimal healing and results.

  • CAN I GET A VI PEEL IF I'M PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING?

    At this time, the VI Peel is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. This is primarily due to limited clinical studies in pregnant or lactating patients, as most elective aesthetic treatments are not formally tested in these populations for ethical reasons.


    While there is no clear evidence of harm, we always take a cautious, safety-first approach for both mom and baby. We’re happy to revisit treatment options once you are no longer pregnant or breastfeeding and tailor a plan that supports your skin goals safely.

Microneedling

Our microneedling treatments at Niche are performed using the Rejuvapen NXT, an advanced device designed for precise, consistent results. The larger needle

circumference allows for greater surface coverage, while the treatment is performed using a stamping method rather than a glide—creating controlled, precise microchannels in the skin. This targeted approach stimulates collagen and elastin production while optimizing the skin’s ability to absorb active ingredients.


For enhanced results, treatments can be paired with regenerative boosters such as Rejuran (PDRN), Klardie, exosomes, or PRF to further support healing, repair, and overall skin rejuvenation.

FAQs

  • IS MICRONEEDLING PAINFUL?

    Microneedling is very well tolerated by most patients. A topical numbing cream is applied prior to treatment to ensure you are comfortable throughout the entire procedure.


    You may feel light pressure or a mild vibrating sensation during treatment, but discomfort is minimal and temporary. Our goal is always to make the experience as comfortable and controlled as possible while still achieving effective skin rejuvenation.

  • WHAT IS THE DOWN TIME AFTER TREATMENT?

    Downtime after microneedling is minimal. You can expect redness similar to a mild sunburn for the first 24–48 hours, which typically subsides quickly as the skin begins its healing process.


    Over the next 5–7 days, the skin continues to repair and renew, with gradual improvements in texture, tone, and overall glow becoming more visible.


    To support healing and reduce inflammation, we also offer optional at-home recovery support such as an Epicutis recovery mask or a CO2 Lift Pro. These help calm the skin, enhance hydration, and optimize recovery for better results.

  • HOW DOES PDRN, KLARDIE, OR PRF ENHANCE MICRONEEDLING?

    When paired with microneedling, regenerative add-ons like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), PDRN, or Klardie significantly enhance results by accelerating healing and improving overall skin quality.


    Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels in the skin. These regenerative treatments are then delivered deeper into the skin where they can work more effectively to support collagen production, repair tissue, and improve hydration, elasticity, and tone.


    The result is faster healing, reduced inflammation, and more advanced overall skin rejuvenation compared to microneedling alone.

  • HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

    With microneedling, one session is a great reset, but a series is what creates true, lasting transformation—one is a treat, three is a treatment.


    Most clients see optimal results with a series of 3–4 sessions spaced about 4 weeks apart, depending on their skin goals. After that, maintenance sessions can be done seasonally or as needed to keep results progressing.

Neuromodulators

We carry Botox, Letybo, with Dysport and Jeuveau available upon request


Neuromodulators are FDA-approved treatments derived from a highly purified form of botulinum toxin type A, designed to temporarily relax targeted muscles. By limiting repetitive muscle movement, they effectively soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, creating a smoother, more refreshed appearance.


In addition to their cosmetic benefits, neuromodulators can also serve therapeutic purposes, such as relieving jaw clenching, teeth grinding (bruxism), tension-related discomfort, and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).


Treatments are minimally invasive, and customized to support both aesthetic and functional goals.

FAQs

  • IS NEUROMODULATOR THE SAME AS BOTOX?

    Botox is one brand of a broader category called neurotoxins (also known as neuromodulators or botulinum toxin type A treatments).


    “Neurotoxin,” “tox,” and “neuromodulator” are often used interchangeably in aesthetics to describe treatments that temporarily relax targeted muscles to soften fine lines and wrinkles. Botox is simply the most well-known brand, but there are several other FDA-approved options that work the same way, including Dysport, Jeuveau, and Letybo.


    All of these products share the same core mechanism—they just differ slightly in formulation, onset, and how they feel or spread, which often comes down to personal preference.

  • HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS?

    You may start to notice early changes as soon as 3–5 days after treatment, with results gradually building over time.


    Full results are typically seen at the 14-day mark, which is why we recommend allowing two weeks before evaluating your final outcome or considering any adjustments.


    For first-time Niche clients, a 2-week follow-up is recommended to ensure results are balanced and no touch-ups are needed.

  • HOW OFTEN WILL I NEED THIS TREATMENT?

    Most clients maintain results every 3–4 months, depending on metabolism, muscle activity, and treatment area.


    With consistent treatments—and especially when paired with regenerative care through the Sweet XVI™ or 1228™ Protocol—results can often feel more sustained over time as the skin and underlying structure are continuously supported.


    Some clients may also notice their results lasting slightly longer with repeated treatments, as the muscles become more relaxed and responsive over time. We’ll tailor your maintenance schedule based on your individual response and long-term goals.

  • ARE NEUROTOXINS SAFE?

    Neurotoxin injections are safe and reliable when performed by a qualified practitioner.


    Side effects are rare and usually mild. They may include injection-site bruising, redness, pain, minor swelling, numbness, and headache.

Lip Refresh

Our Lip Refresh is a subtle injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) treatment designed to hydrate, smooth, and naturally enhance the lips without adding excessive volume.


It focuses on restoring balance, softness, and definition for a refreshed, healthy-looking appearance. This treatment helps improve fine lines around the lips, boost hydration, and restore youthful structure while maintaining a natural, never overdone result.


Dental block is available upon request.

Q&As

  • HOW IS LIP REFRESH DIFFERENT FROM FULL LIP AUGMENTATION?

    A refresh focuses on hydration, soft structure, balance, and subtle enhancement.


    Whereas augmentation is more focused on noticeable volume increase. 

  • DOES IT HURT?

    A topical numbing cream is applied, and most injectable HA contains lidocaine for comfort. 


    A dental block can also be offered for a more comfortable experience.

  • IS THERE DOWNTIME?

    You can expect swelling and possible bruising for a few days. Most swelling improves within 48-72 hours, with full settling around 2 weeks. 


    Complimentary arnica lip balm is given post-treatment to support healing, minimize bruising, and enhance your recovery experience. 

  • HOW LONG WILL RESULTS LAST?

    Most injectable HA (lip filler) last about 6-12 months, depending on your metabolism, lifestyle, and the product used.

Rejuran | Rejuran i

Rejuran is a regenerative skin treatment powered by

PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide), a DNA-derived molecule widely used in Korea and recognized as one of the country’s most sought-after skin rejuvenation procedures.


It works by stimulating collagen production, enhancing tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and improving overall skin quality at a cellular level for a smoother, stronger, and more radiant complexion over time.


Rejuran i is specifically formulated for the delicate under-eye area to help strengthen thin skin, improve fine lines, and restore a brighter, more refreshed appearance without adding volume.

FAQs

  • WHY PDRN (SALMON DNA)?

    Salmon DNA is highly biocompatible with human DNA- meaning it's recognized well by the body and integrates safely at a cellular level. Because of this similarity, it can effectively support tissue repair and regeneration without triggering significant inflammation. 

  • WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

    • Improved skin texture and tone
    • Increased hydration
    • Strengthened, more resilient skin
    • Reduction in fine lines and inflammation
    • Enhanced healing; especially post-procedure
  • HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

    Aging doesn't happen overnight- and true rejuvenation takes time. 


    While a single treatment can create a noticable glow, a series delivers deeper, longer-lasting results.

(coming soon)

FAQs

  • WHY CHOOSE AQUAPURE?

    AquaPure is one of Korea’s leading facial treatments for achieving that clear, hydrated “glass skin” look—with a focus on consistency and skin health.


    It works through four simple steps:

    exfoliation, deep cleansing, extraction, and infusion.


    This allows the skin to be thoroughly refreshed while delivering hydration and nutrients in the same treatment—leaving it clean, balanced, and naturally radiant without feeling heavy or overtreated.

  • IS THERE ANY DOWN TIME?

    Aquapure has no downtime and delivers an instant glow, making the skin look clearer, smoother, and more hydrated immediately after treatment.


    For enhanced results, it pairs beautifully with CO2 Lift masks, Epicutis lipid masks, or LightStim LED therapy, helping to further calm, hydrate, and amplify the skin’s post-treatment radiance.

  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET AQUAPURE?

    For most skin types, every 3–4 weeks is ideal to maintain clear pores, hydration, and a consistent glass-skin glow.


    For maintenance or less congested skin, it can also be done every 4–6 weeks depending on your skin goals and routine.

PRF Hair Restoration

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a regenerative treatment that uses your own blood,

processed to concentrate platelets, growth factors, and healing proteins. When injected into the scalp, PRF helps stimulate dormant hair follicles, improve circulation, and support thicker, healthier hair growth by rejuvenating the scalp from the “bottom up” at a cellular level. This treatment is ideal for early thinning or shedding and is typically performed in a series for optimal results.


For enhanced results, PRF is often paired with Xtresse, a comprehensive hair wellness supplement designed to support hair growth from within. Xtresse features a X3 bioactive blend, including NAD+ support, which plays a key role in cellular energy production and repair.


NAD+ helps support mitochondrial function, improve follicle energy metabolism, and optimize the hair growth cycle, helping reduce shedding and support stronger, healthier hair over time. Together, PRF and Xtresse create a unified regenerative approach to hair restoration—from internal cellular support to direct scalp follicle stimulation.

FAQs

  • WHY PRF OVER PRP?

    While both PRF and PRP are derived from your own blood, PRF is considered a more advanced, regenerative option.


    PRF:

    • Is spun at a lower speed, preserving more platelets, white blood cells, and stem cell signaling componentS
    • Contains fibrin, creating a scaffold for slower, sustained release of growth factors
    • Works more in alignment with the body’s natural healing process

    PRP:

    • Is processed at higher speeds
    • Delivers a quicker release of growth factors, but with less sustained activity

    In short, PRF focuses on longer-lasting, more biologically supportive regeneration, rather than a quick burst.

  • HOW DO I PREPARE FOR OPTIMAL PRF YIELD?

    PRF is created from your own blood, so how you prepare matters. To support the highest quality yield:

    • Stay well hydrated 24-48 hours prior 
    • Eat a balanced meal before your appointment
    • Avoid alcohol and fatty foods for at least 24 hours
    • Minimize anti-inflammatory medications (like ibuprofen) 
  • DO YOU USE NUMBING?

    Topical numbing is not used, as it may interfere with the integrity and effectiveness of PRF.


    Instead, we prioritize comfort through TargetCool, a purified CO2 device that provides cryogenic bursts to instantly cool and numb the skin with every injection point. 


    This approach allows us to maintain the purity of the PRF while still keeping the experience as comfortable as possible.


    More on TargetCool technology under services tab. 

TargetCool

TargetCool™ is a non-invasive CO₂ cooling device used to enhance skin treatments by

rapidly lowering skin temperature, creating temporary microchannels that improve

absorption of active ingredients. This technique—often referred to as “ice needling”—helps drive regenerative serums deeper into the skin with minimal downtime and an immediate post-treatment glow.


By calming inflammation and reducing redness, TargetCool™ helps improve skin recovery while enhancing overall treatment results and comfort.


Another fan favorite recognized in Korea!


In addition, TargetCool™ can be used for topical pinpoint numbing, providing targeted comfort before injection-based procedures such as PRF hair restoration, Rejuran treatments, neuromodulators, and other aesthetic injections—helping improve patient comfort without the need for traditional topical anesthetics in many cases.

FAQs

  • IS THIS PROCEDURE PAINFUL?

    No—TargetCool is completely non-invasive and pain-free.


    It feels like a cool, gentle breeze of air to the skin, similar to rolling your window down while driving in cold weather.


    The cooling also helps calm the skin while skin boosters are infused, making the experience comfortable, refreshing, and well-tolerated.

  • IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME WITH TARGETCOOL?

    No downtime—just an instant refreshed glow with skin boosters delivered through TargetCool’s needle-free cooling technology.


    After treatment, the skin is left as is for about 4 hours to allow optimal absorption and full infusion of the active ingredients. After that, you can resume your normal skincare routine and daily activities as usual.

  • HOW LONG DOES THE TARGETCOOL TREATMENT TAKE?

    The treatment itself takes about 30 minutes from start to finish, including cleansing and skin preparation.


    For those wanting to elevate the experience, you can add an additional 15–25 minutes for a post-treatment boost using an Epicutis lipid mask or LightStim LED therapy, enhancing hydration, calming the skin, and maximizing overall glow.

FAQs

  • WHY ARE WELLNESS INJECTIONS GIVEN IM OR SUBCUTANEOUSLY?

    IM (intramuscular) and SubQ (subcutaneous) injections deliver nutrients directly into the tissue and bloodstream, allowing them to be absorbed efficiently without going through the digestive system.


    By bypassing the GI tract, you avoid breakdown from stomach acid and first-pass metabolism in the liver, which can reduce absorption and effectiveness when taken orally.


    This allows for higher bioavailability, faster uptake, and more consistent results.

  • HOW WILL MICC INJECTION MAKE ME FEEL?

    MICC is a metabolic injection designed to support energy production, fat metabolism, and liver function. It is typically given IM or subcutaneous and works best in a series of treatments for optimal results.


    Most clients notice a gradual build in energy, improved metabolic support, and reduced reliance on caffeine over time. It’s not an instant “rush,” but a steady, sustainable lift in how the body produces and maintains energy.

  • WHEN SHOULD I GET A TRI-IMMUNE INJECTION?

    Tri-Immune is a powerful immune-support injection combining key antioxidants and vitamins to help strengthen immune defense and resilience.


    It is given IM and can feel a bit more “active” on injection, similar to a strong vitamin shot. Our trained providers ensure the experience is comfortable, with only mild arm soreness for a few hours afterward, similar to a flu shot.


    It’s commonly recommended before travel, during high-stress periods, or when you feel run down or coming down with something.

  • WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF NAD+ INJECTION?

    NAD+ supports cellular energy, brain function, and overall vitality by helping your body produce energy at a mitochondrial level.


    Some clients may experience temporary side effects during or shortly after administration, such as light flushing, mild nausea, headache, or a warm sensation—especially with higher doses or faster delivery.


    However, many report increased mental clarity, improved focus, sustained energy, and a noticeable “reset” feeling after treatment.
