Microneedling Ottawa
A simple and effective treatment for skin and scalp with minimal discomfort
Microneedling can help improve skin texture and can be used to treat various skin conditions including scars, fine lines, stretch marks and enlarged pores. It can also be utilized as a part of an overall aging prevention plan to help maintain and improve skins health and overall appearance
The microneedling procedure uses tiny needles to stimulate collagen production and increase blood flow to the skin. It works by creating microchannels in the top layer of the skin, which allows oxygen and nutrients to reach deeper layers of the epidermis. This improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, acne, sun damage, and pigmentation.
What Is MicroNeedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure used to stimulate collagen production and increase blood flow to the skin. It works by creating tiny channels through the top layer of the skin, which allows new cells to grow and repair damaged tissue. This stimulates the body to produce collagen, which improves the look and feel of the skin.
Benefits
The benefits of microneedling include:
• Improved skin tone and texture
• Reduced scarring
• Increased circulation
• Enhanced healing time after surgery or injury
• Reduction in the number of treatments needed to achieve desired results
What to expect
During a microneedling session, you will lie on a table while a technician inserts very thin needles into your skin. You may experience some slight itching or stinging during this process. Afterward, you may notice redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness. Some patients may experience minor bleeding or crusting from the needle punctures. Most clients report no pain or discomfort following the procedure.
The procedure takes around 30 minutes and involves using a small handheld device to gently penetrate the epidermis (outer layer) of the skin. This causes micro-tears in the outermost layers of the skin which allows new collagen to form. As the body heals itself, it begins to repair damaged tissue and fill in the holes left by the needles.
Recovery and Results
Most people return home within 2 hours of their microneedling treatment. However, you should avoid strenuous activity until the wounds have healed completely.
Ideal Candidate
Microneedling is ideal for anyone looking to reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, decrease the appearance of scars, and enhance the appearance of healthy, younger-looking skin. It’s especially helpful when combined with other anti-aging procedures such as Botox® Cosmetic injections, chemical peels, laser resurfacing, or dermal fillers. It can also be beneficial for those who suffer from rosacea, acne, hyperpigmentation, and other skin conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Does the MicroNeedling Treatment Work?
The treatment works by creating tiny channels through the top layer of the skin, which allows new blood vessels to grow beneath it. This stimulates collagen production and improves fine lines, wrinkles and. skin elasticity.
Can Microneedling Help with Hair Loss?
Yes! The microneedling procedure stimulates hair follicles and encourages new growth. It can be used to treat alopecia totalis (hair loss from the scalp), alopecia areata (patchy baldness) and scarring alopecia.
When Will I See My Microneedling Results?
The results will vary depending on the condition being treated. Some people see improvements after just one session, while others may require several sessions before seeing noticeable changes.
How Much Does MicroNeedling Cost?
The cost of microneedling depends on the number of treatments required, but it typically costs between $100-$300 per session.
Is Microneedling Treatment Right For You?
The procedure involves using tiny needles to stimulate collagen production and elastin fibres, which improves the look of fine lines and wrinkles. It is not painful, but it does cause some redness and swelling. If you want to try this treatment, you should first consult with a dermatologist who will determine if microneedling is right for you.
Is Microneedling only for your face?
Yes! Microneedling is a great way to treat acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and other skin issues. It’s also a great tool to reduce scarring from surgery.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments required depends on the condition being treated. For example, if you want to reduce acne scarring, it may take three treatments spaced out over two weeks. If you want to remove wrinkles, it could take four treatments spread out over six months.
Is Microneedling Painful?
Yes, it is painful. However, most patients find that the discomfort is minimal and quickly subsides once the needles are removed.
Is there any downtime
There will be some redness and swelling around the treatment area, but it should subside within 24 hours. If you experience pain during the procedure, we recommend using ice packs and taking ibuprofen before the appointment.
Why is it So Effective?
Microneedling uses a special needle to create microscopic wounds in the dermal layer of the skin. These wounds allow new collagen to be produced and encourage the body to heal itself. The result is smoother, firmer skin.
How does it compare to other treatments?
The microneedling procedure is similar to microdermabrasion but uses smaller needles to penetrate the epidermis. It’s not painful, and most patients report little discomfort during treatment.
Microneedling with PRP – What is it?
It is a combination of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and microneedling. Platelets contain high concentrations of growth factors that promote cell regeneration and healing. When combined with microneedling, they help to increase the rate of collagen production and improve skin elasticity.
Microneedling is a noninvasive procedure used to stimulate collagen production by injecting tiny needles into the skin. The result is smoother, softer skin. It works best for treating fine lines and wrinkles, but it may also help with acne scars, stretch marks, rosacea, and sun damage.
