Starting at $385 + GST
Duration: Custom Timing
Suggested Frequency: 1x Month
SkinPen® microneedling is a highly customized, results-driven treatment designed to improve overall skin health, texture, and resilience. Your Certified Skin Therapist will begin with a personalized consultation to understand your goals and create a treatment plan tailored specifically to your skin.
Your appointment starts with a thorough cleanse, followed by clinical photography to track your progress. A 5% lidocaine numbing cream is then applied to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. After approximately 40 minutes, the numbing is removed and the treatment begins.
Using the Health Canada–approved SkinPen® device, your therapist will glide the pen across the skin while applying a professional treatment gel. This advanced technology creates millions of controlled microchannels in the skin, triggering a natural healing response. This process stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin—key building blocks for firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
Immediately following treatment, the skin will appear pink to moderately flushed, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within 24–36 hours and may be followed by light peeling as the skin renews.
Results develop progressively, with collagen production continuing over the next 3 to 6 months. Over time, clients can expect improved skin texture, tone, firmness, and overall radiance.

What Can Microneedling Treat?
SkinPen® microneedling is a versatile treatment that targets a wide range of common skin concerns on the face and body. By stimulating your skin’s natural repair process, it helps improve both visible imperfections and overall skin quality.
Microneedling is effective for:
- Fine lines and early signs of aging
- Acne scars and other types of scarring
- Uneven skin texture and enlarged pores
- Hyperpigmentation and sun damage
- Mild skin laxity (loss of firmness)
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Stretch marks (on the body)
Because the treatment is fully customizable, your Certified Skin Therapist can adjust the depth and technique to safely and effectively address your specific concerns.
Benefits & Results
The true power of microneedling lies in its ability to work with your skin’s naturally ability to heal and renew itself. By creating controlled micro-injuries, the treatment activates a natural healing cascade that strengthens and rebuilds the skin from within.
Key benefits include:
- Smoother, more refined skin texture
- Increased firmness and elasticity
- Softening of fine lines and wrinkles
- Reduction in the appearance of scars and pores
- Brighter, more even skin tone
While many clients notice an initial glow within days, the most significant results develop gradually as collagen and elastin production increases over time. A series of treatments is typically recommended for optimal, long-lasting results.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
SkinPen® microneedling is suitable for most skin types and is an excellent option for those looking to improve overall skin quality without more invasive procedures.
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Are experiencing fine lines, early signs of aging, or loss of firmness
- Have acne scars, textural irregularities, or enlarged pores
- Want to brighten dull or uneven skin tone
- Prefer a natural approach that stimulates your skin’s own collagen production
- Are looking for minimal downtime with noticeable, progressive results
Microneedling may not be suitable if you:
- Have active acne, infection, or open lesions in the treatment area
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding (depending on provider guidelines)
- Have certain medical conditions or are taking medications that affect healing
- Are prone to keloid scarring
Your Certified Skin Therapist will complete a thorough consultation to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for your skin.
Treatment Plan & Series Recommendations
While you may notice an initial improvement after just one treatment, microneedling delivers the most impactful and long-lasting results when performed as a series.
Recommended treatment plan:
- A series of 3–6 treatments, spaced approximately 4–6 weeks apart
- Followed by maintenance treatments every 3–6 months to support ongoing collagen production
The exact number of sessions will depend on your skin concerns, goals, and how your skin responds to treatment. Concerns such as acne scarring or deeper wrinkles may require a more treatments.
For enhanced results, your therapist may also recommend combining microneedling with professional treatments or advanced homecare to support healing and optimize your outcome.
