Are you on a quest for radiant, youthful, and flawless skin? If so, microneedling may be the perfect treatment for you. Microneedling is a popular cosmetic procedure that promises to rejuvenate your skin. In this blog post, we will dive into the world of microneedling, explore what it is, how it works, its benefits, and what to expect post-procedure.
What is microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that has recently gained popularity for its remarkable ability to rejuvenate the skin. This innovative treatment involves using tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes and promoting the production of collagen and elastin.
How does microneedlig work?
Microneedling promotes skin repair and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, & stretch marks with eDermastamp® Collagen Induction Therapy, licensed by Health Canada. Microneedling is performed using a handheld device, electrically powered, with tiny needles that make precise, microscopic punctures in the skin. These “micro-injuries” do not leave scars; they work by helping to stimulate the skin to repair itself naturally through a process known to increase collagen formation.
Why should you get microneedling done?
Your skin is a reflection of your overall health. Although diet, lifestyle factors, and hormonal and gut health play a role in the appearance of your skin, a little help with microneedling can help to create a radiant youthful glow. Microneedling helps the epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, which naturally thins with age, become thicker and tauter. The result is a soft glow with reduced fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, acne scars and more.

Microneedling can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, leading to smoother, softer skin.
Minimized Pores:
The procedure can reduce the size of enlarged pores, giving your skin a more refined appearance.

Increased collagen production can make your skin appear firmer and more youthful.
Even Skin Tone:
Microneedling can help fade hyperpigmentation and reduce redness, resulting in a more even complexion.
