Microneedling uses a single-use tip with very fine sterile needles to create microperforations at different depths in the skin – depending on the area being treated – in a controlled and precise manner.
This activates the skin’s natural regenerative process and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, while allowing the skin to better permeate the professional serums used after the treatment.
With minimal downtime between 24 and 48 hours, microneedling helps to reduce acne scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, fine lines, enlarged pores, photo damage, pigmentation, and uneven skin texture.
Optimal results can be seen 4 to 6 weeks or 2 to 3 months following the procedure, depending on the frequency and intensity of the treatments received.
Continuing treatment on a regular basis increases the overall result and alternating microneedling with other skin rejuvenation treatments is recommended.
At Dermapure, we use different microneedling platforms, safe and approved by Health Canada, such as Scarlet, EndyMed Intensive, SkinPen, and CosmoPen.
*Complimentary consultations are offered by specialist skin care consultants.
Dermapure has qualified physicians, nurses and skin experts with years of experience dedicated to delivering exceptional results. Their practices and methods align with our philosophy to provide a natural look. Therefore, microneedling treatments are customized to the individual to offer solutions for various skin concerns, like fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
A meeting prior to the microneedling treatment allows us to better understand your expectations as well as your skin condition and to build a personalized treatment plan.
Taking pre- and post-treatment pictures is an important step as it allows you to visualize the evolution of your skin condition over the course of the treatments. It is also an opportunity for you to better understand the treatment and to visualize the long-term results.
Carefully removing all traces of gel, make-up and oil film is an essential step in the microneedling treatment. It is also important to thoroughly disinfect the skin in order to create an adequate and sterile canvas for the procedure.
Desensitizing the skin with a lidocaine-based anesthetic gel will reduce the discomfort felt during treatment. This product is applied and left on clean skin for about 45 minutes before treatment.
The treatment consists of applying the single-use tip with light pressure to the skin for the needles to cause micro-injuries that stimulate your body’s natural repair process. The movements of the tip are controlled and precise. An overlapping of the tip between each pass ensures that the tip passes over all areas to be treated, with no gaps between them. On certain more affected areas, the technician may choose to make a second pass to obtain more results. After the 45-minute topical anesthesia application, the treatment itself can take between 30 and 90 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
The cost varies depending on the area being treated. Contact your clinic for more details!
A series of treatments spaced appropriately apart may be recommended based on your skin condition and individual goals. Maintenance of your treatment may require multiple treatments.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid this type of treatment, as should anyone with an active or immunosuppressive skin infection.
The face, including eyelids, neck, décolleté, arms, abdomen as well as thighs and knees can be treated with microneedling, depending on the platform being used.

Visit The Online StoreMicroneedling stimulates the skin's natural regenerative process by creating controlled micro-injuries with ultrafine, sterile needles. These micro-perforations trigger the skin's wound-healing response, prompting increased collagen and elastin production. This process helps to improve skin texture and reduce acne scars, wrinkles, and pigmentation.
Microneedling addresses various skin concerns, including acne scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, fine lines, enlarged pores, sun damage, pigmentation issues, and uneven skin texture.
The downtime after microneedling is typically minimal, lasting between 24 to 48 hours. Patients may experience redness, mild swelling, and sensitivity in the treated area during this period. You can generally return to your regular activities immediately, but avoiding sun exposure and harsh skincare products is essential as your skin heals.
Optimal results from microneedling typically become noticeable within four to six weeks following the procedure. This timeline can vary based on several factors: The frequency and intensity of treatments. Individual skin characteristics, like age, skin type, and severity of concerns. Skincare routines, including proper sun protection and moisturization post-treatment.
Alternating microneedling with other skin rejuvenation treatments is recommended to enhance overall results and address a broader range of skin concerns. Different treatments target various aspects of skin health, such as texture, tone, and elasticity. Alternating between microneedling and other modalities like glycolic peels or facials allows for a synergistic approach to skin rejuvenation.
