What Is Microneedling?

A microneedling collagen induction facial is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device with tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin.


These micro-injuries prompt the body's natural healing response, which includes the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that make skin appear more youthful and healthy. During the procedure, the microneedling device is passed over the skin, creating tiny punctures that stimulate the body's healing process.


At Lifeways Integrative Wellness, we use the SkinPen Precision microneedling device, which is the first skin remodelling device approved by Health Canada as a class 2 medical device. This means that it meets strict safety and efficacy standards and has been thoroughly tested and approved for use in medical settings.

Microneedling Aftercare Tips

Aftercare for microneedling is essential for maximizing the benefits of the treatment and promoting healing. Here are some tips for microneedling aftercare:


1. Avoid applying makeup or other skincare products for the first 24 hours after treatment to allow the skin to heal.


2. Avoid direct sunlight and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher to protect your skin from UV rays.


3. Avoid swimming, hot tubs, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours after treatment as sweat and bacteria can cause irritation to the skin.


4. Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and avoid using products with harsh ingredients that can irritate the skin.


5. Do not pick at or scratch the treated area as this can cause scarring, infection, and other complications.

FAQs

  • Can microneedling be combined with other facial treatments?

    In addition to SkinPen Precision, we also recommend using high-quality skincare products to enhance the results of your microneedling treatment.


    Hydrafacial treatments can cleanse and purify prior to microneedling to achieve optimal results. 


    Hyaluronic acid injections can also help hydrate and plump up the skin. When combined with microneedling, it can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improve skin texture and tone.


    It is important to consult with a licensed skincare professional to determine which facial treatments are suitable for your skin type and condition.

  • What is the downtime after a microneedling treatment?

    The downtime after a microneedling treatment is about 24 hours. You may experience some redness, swelling, and sensitivity immediately after the treatment, but these symptoms usually subside within a few hours to a day. You may also experience some dryness and flakiness as your skin begins to heal and regenerate. 


    Your skincare professional at Lifeways Integrative Wellness will provide you with post-treatment instructions and recommendations to ensure optimal results and minimize any potential side effects.

  • How many microneedling sessions do I need to see results?

    The number of microneedling sessions you need to see results depends on your skin's condition and your desired outcome. Most people start to see improvements in their skin's texture, tone, and overall appearance after just one session. 


    However, to achieve optimal results, it is recommended to undergo a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. This allows your skin to fully regenerate and produce new collagen and elastin fibers.
