EFFECTIVE TREATMENT TO REVIVE YOUR SKIN BY ACTIVATING CELL REGENERATION
Microneedling (or non-medical mesotherapy) is a non-invasive treatment that is effective in treating the signs of skin aging and improving the texture and tone of the skin. The treatment is performed with a multi-needle tip that makes micro perforations in the skin to penetrate a hyaluronic acid-based serum that activates cell regeneration and natural collagen production.
THE POSSIBILITIES
Microneedling is ideal for visibly reducing wrinkles, fine lines, dilated ostias, acne scars, pigment spots, stretch marks, stimulating hair growth and more!

What are the possibilities of microneedling?
Microneedling helps to treat skin aging by reducing pigmentation spots as well as wrinkles and fine lines. It can also greatly improve skin tone and texture by treating acne scars.
Stretch marks can also be treated to reduce their color demarcation and improve their texture.
Finally, microneedling can improve blood circulation to the scalp and thus promote hair growth.
What are the benefits of treatment?
Microneedling treatments provide many benefits to your skin. Your complexion will be brighter and more even. The serum applied during the treatment will also deeply hydrate your skin and visibly tighten it.
A single Microneedling treatment boosts collagen and elastin production by over 400%! You will regain a youthful glow quickly.
Is it Painful?
Microneedling causes little or no pain. A topical anesthetic is applied prior to the procedure to make the treatment more comfortable.
The duration of the treatment depends on the area to be treated. Appointments are approximately 60 to 90 minutes.
How quickly could I observe the results?
The results usually appear after only 24 hours and will continue to increase during the 30 days following the treatment.
It is possible to do a cure by spacing the treatments every 4-6 weeks. From 2 to 8 sessions may be necessary depending on the problem to be treated.

What you will need to do before & after the service
Before the performance
- Avoid drinking coffee, tea and/or energy drinks on the morning of the appointment. Do not consume very spicy foods or alcohol a few days before the service. Do not expose the area to be treated to UV rays at least 5 days before the appointment.
- No waxing, laser or electrolysis on the area to be treated at least 1 week before the service.
- Do not take ibuprofen (advil/aspirin) at least 48 hours before the appointment (except when prescribed).
- If you have already contracted oral herpes, we strongly suggest that you consult your health care professional in order to obtain a prescription for Valtrex for prevention following the procedure.
- Stop using topical creams containing Retin-A / AHA near the treatment area at least 2 weeks before your appointment.
- 5 to 7 days before the appointment, gently exfoliate the skin with a mild exfoliant (face).
After the performance
- Immediately after your treatment, you will experience a sensation of heat in the skin which will be slightly reddish, like a good sunburn. These side effects will quickly subside.
- You may not cleanse your face for 12 hours after treatment. Continually apply the serum recommended by your esthetician and moisturize your skin as much as possible.
- Do not expose yourself to the sun for a minimum of 7 days. Protect your skin at all times with a mineral sunscreen adapted to your skin.
- Do not apply any makeup on your skin for a minimum of 48 hours following the appointment. Do not use creams containing Retin-A / AHA.
- After 3 to 4 days, you may notice some peeling of the skin as the microneedling activates cell regeneration. This reaction is normal and is part of the healing process. Continue to moisturize and protect your skin as cell renewal continues for up to 28 to 45 days. You can then do a second treatment, if necessary.
- If you have had a scalp treatment, do not wash your hair for 48 hours after the service. Protect the treated area from the sun and be sure to wear a clean hat or cap to avoid the growth of bacteria.
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 5 to 7 days following treatment. Swimming pools, spas or saunas should be avoided.
