Microneedling

Microneedling skin care treatment involves using multiple fine needles to create tiny micro-punctures in the skin. This allows the skin to start stimulating more collagen and elastin delivering smoother, firmer and more radiant skin. Microneedling is one of the best treatments for overall skin health. It targets issues, like tone, texture, pore sizes, acne scars and finelines. Best seen results are three treatments 4-6 weeks apart. Our nurse injector ensures proper technique and administration of the treatment.

1. What is microneedling, does it hurt?

Microneedling uses multiple tiny needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. The
controlled injury to the skin triggers the production of collagen and elastin, which in turn, improves skin tone, texture and overall quality. A topical medical numbing is applied to the skin to reduce discomfort. Certain areas can be a bit more sensitive but overall a comfortable treatment.

2. Is microneedling safe for all skin types?

Yes! Microneedling is safe for all skin tones and types. However, the treatment should
be paused if active acne is present. Having a consultation prior to the treatment is
important.
