Microneedling in Toronto
Microneedling is a collagen-stimulating treatment designed to improve acne scars, pores, uneven texture, pigmentation, and early signs of aging. Using a Health Canada–approved device, we create controlled micro-injuries that trigger your skin’s natural repair process to support smoother, firmer, more even-looking skin over time.
Why Clients Choose Microneedling
Microneedling is one of our go-to treatments when you want visible skin refinement without changing your natural features. It’s ideal for improving acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven texture, dullness, fine lines, and discoloration from past breakouts or sun exposure. Over a series, the goal is clearer tone, smoother texture, and stronger-looking skin that holds hydration better.
Why Choose Beauty Room
Microneedling results depend heavily on the device, technique, sterility, and aftercare. We use a Health Canada–approved microneedling system with sterile, single-use needle cartridges, and we tailor depth and intensity based on your skin, your goals, and your tolerance for downtime. You’ll also get clear pre-care and aftercare guidance so your skin heals cleanly and your results build properly.

Microneedling FAQs
What are the benefits for microneedling?
Microneedling promotes the production of collagen which has multiple benefits like reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reducing pore size. This boost in collagen production also improves skin tone affected by sun damage, hyperpigmentation and acne scars. Since microneedling creates micro-tears in your skin, you’ll notice your skincare products will better absorb into your skin –this is the best time to use a hyaluronic acid serum.
Am I the right candidate for microneedling?
While microneedling is an incredibly effective treatment, it is not for everyone. Here’s the ideal candidate for microneedling:
- Have not used Accutane or isotretinoin within the last 6 months
- Do not have open wounds or cuts
- Do not have active acne, rosacea, inflammatory skin conditions or skin infections
- Are not pregnant
- Do not have a history of poor wound healing
- Have fine lines or wrinkles
- Have acne scars and large pores
- Have uneven skin tone or pigmentation
Is there any downtime after microneedling?
While the side effects are minimal, you don’t want to schedule your microneedling treatment before an important event. After microneedling you may experience some minor swelling and bruising which will go down between 1 to 3 days. Additionally, you may experience some swelling around the eye area, inflammation, itching, burning, and possible breakouts.
How should I prepare my skin for microneedling?
- Avoid suntanning
- Avoid retinols and vitamin A for 5 days prior to treatment
- Prepare your skin with medical-grade skincare before and after your procedure to achieve the best results
- Please advise us prior to treatment if you have suffered in the past with cold sores on the skin or lips. This viral infection may be re-activated in these areas by any injection treatments. You may be required to take an anti-viral medication such as Valtrex on the day of your treatment and for several days after your treatment.
How many sessions of microneedling do I need?
We recommend 3 to 6 sessions spaced 1 month apart for the best results. Afterwards, you can maintain with one or two sessions per year.
What can I expect during my microneedling treatment?
You will have filled out your intake form prior to your appointment and have had a thorough consultation with our medical aesthetician
We will thoroughly cleanse your skin following with the application of a topical anesthetic to keep the procedure pain-free
We use a medical-grade hyaluronic glide that will penetrate deep into the skin through the micro-channels to hydrate the skin
The treatment should be fairly comfortable and last about 15-20 minutes.
Once the microneedling is completed, we will apply the appropriate products and will recommend aftercare products to promote healing
What are the after-care & post procedures?
