Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin procedure wherein thin needles are utilized to create tiny punctures in the top layer of your skin. This controlled damage prompts your skin's natural healing process, encouraging increased production of collagen and elastin. These essential proteins contribute to the firmness and smoothness of your skin. The procedure is known to help improve various skin concerns, including wrinkles, stretch marks, scars, acne scarring, skin tone, fine lines, loose skin, large pores, and discoloration 

 At Rewind and Renew Medical Aesthetics, our commitment lies in delivering top-tier services and utilizing premium products. The Eclipse MicroPen EVO, a Health Canada approved class II medical-grade microneedling device, stands out as one of the most advanced technologies in the microneedling market. With superior collagen induction therapy intensity, the MicroPen EVO surpasses other devices, ensuring visible results even for individuals with prominent concerns such as facial acne scars. This innovative device addresses general skin texture, tone, and color issues. Offering advanced treatment customization and precision, we can easily tailor the depth of the MicroPen EVO treatment to achieve each patient's desired results. Rest assured, the MicroPen EVO is both safe and comfortable for clients with various skin types. 

Before scheduling the procedure, a consultation is mandatory. A $50 consultation fee will be charged at the time of booking, and this fee can be applied to any treatment at our clinic. During this session, the nurse practitioner will meticulously review your medical history, examine the treatment area, review the potential risks and benefits associated with the procedure, and address any inquiries you may have. This consultation serves as a platform for the nurse practitioner to offer comprehensive education about the procedure, ensuring you are well-informed about pre and post-care recommendations for optimal results. If deemed an appropriate candidate for treatment, the procedure will then be scheduled. The consultation typically spans approximately 30 minutes. 

Patients are required to arrive at the clinic with a clean, makeup-free face. A topical numbing cream will be applied for 20 minutes to promote comfort. Treatment areas will be prepped with a cleanser and further cleaned using chlorhexidine. Depending on individual skin needs and preferences, we administer either a Hyaluronic Acid serum (included in the overall cost), exosomes (additional charge), or other serums to the treatment area. A needling device is then applied to the skin, creating superficial pinpoint injuries. The Hyaluronic Acid serum serves to provide essential hydration to the skin. To ensure optimal results, we kindly request discontinuation of any Retinol product use three days prior to the scheduled treatment. 

Post-procedure, the treated skin will exhibit a red and flushed appearance, akin to a moderate sunburn. Expect mild skin tightness and heightened sensitivity to touch in the treated area. The redness will significantly diminish within a few hours after the treatment, and the skin will generally appear calmed within the subsequent 24 hours. After 3 days, the skin is expected to return to a normal or near-normal state. For the initial 3 days following the procedure, it is advised to refrain from sweaty exercise, avoid applying makeup, and limit sun exposure. We will supply you with a Post Procedure Take Home Kit that includes specially selected skin care products to ensure optimal results from your procedure. After 7 days, you may resume your regular skincare routine. We recommend incorporating a daily Retinol and Vitamin C product post-microneedling, starting 7 days after the procedure, to maintain optimal results.
