At Dermapure, microneedling is performed by a team of highly qualified physicians, nurses, and skin experts, all dedicated to delivering exceptional results. Our professionals bring a wealth of knowledge and training to ensure a safe and effective treatment. We follow a philosophy focused on achieving a natural look, offering customized cosmetic procedures that address various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and more.
Microneedling is a non-invasive treatment offered in Ottawa that helps improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of scars and fine lines, and reveal a smoother, more even complexion. By creating controlled micro-injuries, this treatment stimulates your skin’s natural healing process and boosts collagen and elastin production.
It’s ideal for treating acne scars, stretch marks, enlarged pores, fine lines, and uneven tone. Microneedling can be performed on its own or combined with radiofrequency or PRP for enhanced results — with minimal downtime and long-term benefits.

Microneedling is a versatile treatment that can be used on various parts of the body, depending on the platform being used. The procedure is effective on the face, including sensitive areas such as the lower eyelids, as well as the neck and décolleté. It can also be applied to other areas like the arms, abdomen, thighs, and knees. Each area can be treated to address specific skin concerns, such as texture irregularities, scars, or signs of aging, with the treatment being tailored to the sensitivity and needs of the targeted zone.
Before beginning the microneedling treatment, we conduct a thorough assessment to understand your skin’s condition and your specific expectations. This initial consultation allows us to evaluate your needs in detail and develop a customized treatment plan tailored to achieve the best possible results.
Capturing pre- and post-treatment photos is a crucial step in the microneedling process. These images provide a visual record of your skin’s condition before and after each session, helping you track progress and evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment over time. This allows you to clearly see the long-term results and gain a better understanding of how the treatment is benefiting your skin.
Thoroughly cleansing the skin to remove any gel, makeup, and oil is essential before microneedling. This step ensures that the skin is free of impurities and creates a clean, sterile surface for the procedure. Proper disinfection is crucial for preventing any risk of infection and ensuring the best possible results from the treatment.
To minimize discomfort during the microneedling procedure, a lidocaine-based numbing gel is applied to the clean skin. This anesthetic gel is left on for approximately 45 minutes to effectively desensitize the area and ensure a more comfortable treatment experience.
During the microneedling treatment, a single-use tip is applied to the skin with light pressure. The needles create micro-injuries that trigger your body’s natural repair process. The technician ensures controlled and precise movements, overlapping each pass to cover the entire treatment area thoroughly without any gaps. For areas with more pronounced concerns, a second pass may be performed to enhance results. After the 45-minute application of topical anesthesia, the treatment itself typically takes between 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the area being addressed.
Treatment prices vary based on your individual needs and the specific procedure performed. To learn more about pricing, we invite you to contact your clinic or schedule a consultation with our experts.
After your initial microneedling series, which is usually spaced about 3 to 4 weeks apart, ongoing maintenance may be recommended to sustain and enhance your results. The exact number and frequency of follow-up treatments depend on your skin condition and individual goals. Typically, clients may need additional sessions every 6 to 12 months to maintain their rejuvenated skin. Regular follow-up ensures your skin continues to benefit from the treatment, providing long-lasting improvements in texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Microneedling is not recommended for individuals with hemophilia, active acne, rosacea, solar keratosis, autoimmune disorders, or those on long-term steroids, anticoagulants, or chemotherapy. Avoid microneedling if you have nickel allergies, scleroderma, or a compromised skin barrier. Consult a healthcare provider if you have heart disease, hypertension, insulin-dependent diabetes, or recent cancer treatments. Always review your medical history and conditions with your healthcare provider to ensure microneedling is appropriate for you.
