What is Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates natural collagen and elastin production, helping improve skin texture, firmness, fine lines, and overall radiance. It’s a popular minimally invasive treatment for natural skin rejuvenation.

How Microneedling Works
How Does Microneedling Work
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin using fine sterile needles. This stimulates the skin's natural healing response and encourages collagen and elastin production over time.
As the skin repairs itself, the process can help improve the appearance of texture, firmness, fine lines and certain types of scarring.
Because collagen remodeling takes time, improvements can continue to develop for weeks following treatment.
What Happens During a Microneedling Treatment?
What to Expect During your Microneedling Treatment:
Your microneedling appointment begins with a consultation and skin assessment so your treatment can be tailored to your individual concerns and goals.
Your skin is then cleansed and prepared before the microneedling treatment is performed using sterile, single-use needle cartridges. The device creates controlled microchannels in the skin to support the skin's natural renewal process.
After treatment, appropriate professional skincare products are applied to help support your skin as it begins its recovery process. You will also receive aftercare guidance to help protect and care for your skin following your appointment.
Microneedling Aftercare & Downtime
Mild redness, sensitivity and warmth can occur after microneedling and may resemble a mild sunburn. These effects typically settle as the skin recovers.
Following your treatment, it is important to follow the aftercare instructions provided to you and avoid unnecessarily irritating the skin while it is recovering.
Sun protection is particularly important after treatment. Your personalized aftercare instructions will depend on your skin and the treatment performed.
-
Keep your skin clean and follow the personalized aftercare instructions provided after your treatment.
-
Use only gentle, recommended skincare products while your skin is recovering.
-
Avoid picking, scratching or exfoliating the treated area while the skin heals.
-
Avoid direct sun exposure and protect your skin with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.
-
Avoid tanning while your skin is recovering.
-
Avoid introducing potentially irritating or active skincare products until your skin has recovered and you have been advised that it is appropriate to resume them.
-
Allow your skin time to recover before returning to treatments or activities that may further irritate the skin.
-
Follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by Dal, as recommendations can vary depending on your skin and treatment.

Faqs – Microneedling in London,Ontario
Q1: Does microneedling hurt?
A: Most clients describe it as a mild prickling sensation. Numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable.
Q2: How many sessions will I need?
A: A series of microneedling treatments may be recommended depending on your skin concerns and goals. For many clients, treatments are spaced approximately 4–6 weeks apart to allow the skin time to recover and for the collagen-building process to continue. A personalized treatment plan will be recommended based on your skin and desired results.
Q3: Is there downtime?
A: Expect mild redness and sensitivity for 24–48 hours, similar to a sunburn. Makeup and heavy skincare should be avoided for a couple of days.
Q4: Who is a good candidate?
A: Microneedling can be suitable for many skin types and concerns, depending on your individual skin condition and treatment goals.
Q5: When will I see results?
A: You may notice a glow within a few days, with collagen stimulation continuing to improve your skin for weeks after each session.
Q6:How long does a microneedling treatment take?
A: A microneedling appointment typically takes about 60–90 minutes, including your consultation, skin preparation, treatment and post-treatment care. Treatment time can vary depending on your skin concerns and whether additional steps, such as topical numbing, are included.
Q7:Can I wear makeup after microneedling?
A: It’s best to avoid makeup for at least 24 hours after microneedling to allow your skin to recover and minimize the risk of irritation. Your skin may be red, warm or sensitive immediately after treatment, so keeping your skin clean and following your personalized aftercare instructions is important.
Q8: Can Microneedling be combined with other treatments?
A: Microneedling can sometimes be incorporated into a broader skincare plan, but not every treatment should be performed at the same time. Your skin needs appropriate time to recover between procedures, particularly when combining microneedling with exfoliating treatments such as chemical peels.
At Dolledupbydalxo Medical Aesthetics, we can assess your skin and determine whether microneedling, a chemical peel such as BioRePeel, or another treatment may be appropriate for your goals. If combining treatments is suitable, we will recommend the appropriate timing and aftercare based on your skin's condition and response.
