Microneedling

Rejuvenate Your Skin with Microneedling in Hamilton

At Artista Medical Aesthetics, we offer microneedling treatments designed to promote healthy, glowing skin and improve your complexion. This non-invasive procedure uses tiny, sterilized needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulates collagen production and enhances the skin’s natural healing process. Whether you’re looking to reduce acne scars, minimize fine lines, or improve overall skin texture, our professional team in Hamilton is here to help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin with microneedling.

What is Micro needling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses a device with fine needles to create tiny punctures (micro-channels) in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production, which helps to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. Microneedling is a safe treatment suitable for a wide range of skin concerns, from wrinkles and fine lines to acne scars and uneven pigmentation.

Areas We Treat with Microneedling

Microneedling can be used on a variety of areas on the face and body to treat skin imperfections and promote overall skin health. Some of the most popular treatment areas include:

Face: Target fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage and uneven skin tone on the face for a smoother, more youthful complexion.

Neck: Treat fine lines and sagging skin on the neck for a more lifted and firm appearance

Décolletage: Improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of sun damage or fine lines on the chest.

Hands: Reduce signs of aging, such as wrinkles and sun spots, on the hands, leaving them looking more youthful.

Benefits of Microneedling

Stimulates Collagen Production

Microneedling helps to stimulate collagen and elastin production, essential for youthful, plump skin.

Reduces Acne Scars

Microneedling can help reduce the appearance of acne scars and other types of scarring, creating a smoother skin surface.

Minimizes Fine Lines and Wrinkles

By encouraging collagen production, microneedling helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving your skin a more plumped up look.

Improves Skin Texture and Tone

The treatment improves overall skin texture, leaving your skin smoother, brighter, and more even.

Non-Invasive and Safe

Microneedling is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment with minimal downtime, making it a safe and effective solution for those seeking skin rejuvenation.

Enhances Absorption of Skincare Products

The micro-channels created during the treatment allow for deeper penetration of skincare products, improving their effectiveness. We can layer a chemical peel with this treatment. We refer to this as our “Glass Skin Treatment”.
