Microneedling In Toronto, On

Microneedling is a treatment that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This process boosts collagen production by up to 200%, helping to reduce scars, wrinkles, and fine lines, while improving overall skin texture.
As a versatile treatment, microneedling can also address a variety of skin concerns, including hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, and even hair loss. Ideal for maintaining youthful skin, it is recommended every 4-6 weeks for optimal results.

*Consultations are included with your appointments. Our doctors must perform a detailed consultation, going over your desired look and needs to provide professional recommendations and your pre/post-care instructions.

DURING CONSULTATION

At the beginning of each appointment, we conduct a thorough consultation. During this consultation, we discuss the specific areas of concern and carefully review your medical history. It is crucial to provide complete and accurate information about your medical history, including any allergies, skin or neurological conditions, and medications you may be taking. This is necessary to ensure your safety and to achieve optimal results.

DURING TREATMENT

Our microneedling procedure includes a thorough double medical cleanse, followed by disinfecting the skin. Once cleansed and disinfected, we then numb our patients with topical numbing cream. Once numbing is complete, we then discuss depths and decide which needle size is the most appropriate for the treated area. Here at Derma Bar, we use our Health Canada-approved device, ensuring our clients’ safety and effectiveness. Once treatment is complete, we may reapply hyaluronic acid to minimize the feeling of tightness and support the skin in healing.

POST-PROCEDURE

After the procedure, your skin may be red and flushed for 48-72 hours, like a mild sunburn. In the first 72 hours, you will experience some tightness and mild sensitivity. It is best to avoid any physical exercise that may cause you to sweat for 48 hours. This prevents bacteria from entering the skin. Avoiding makeup for 24-48 hours is also recommended. It is also recommended to purchase a post-microneedling kit to take home with you.

Your provider will also explain which skincare products to avoid for a few days to a week. This will include any products containing alcohol or retinol. Dryness, redness, and sensitivity may last 7-10 days.
