Discover your skin’s innate healing powers
Microneedling is a minimally invasive solution designed to enhance your skin's natural beauty. This procedure uses Health Canada approved devices, and involves creating tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin. This triggers the body to create new collagen and elastin. Ideal for reducing the appearance of scars, fine lines, and improving overall skin texture, Microneedling Treatments offer a path to smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.

Procedure and Recovery
The treatment begins with the application of a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort. A specialized device is then used to gently create thousands of micro-injuries on the surface of your skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing process and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells and collagen.
Post-treatment, you may experience mild redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within 48 hours. Most clients return to their normal activities immediately after the session.
Complications are rare, but as with any procedure, there’s a risk of infection, pigment changes, or scarring, especially if post-care instructions are not followed properly.
