The Science Behind Microneedling
Microneedling harnesses the skin’s natural healing response through controlled micro-injuries. During treatment, ultra-fine needles create tiny, precise punctures in the skin’s outer layers, triggering a robust healing process. This stimulates fibroblasts—the cells responsible for collagen and elastin production—to increase their activity. As collagen and elastin regenerate, the skin naturally becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful. Additionally, these microscopic channels enhance the absorption and efficacy of topical serums and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), optimizing overall rejuvenation and skin health.
Areas Treated with Microneedling
Microneedling at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre is highly versatile and effective across numerous areas of the body. While commonly used on the face to address fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven texture, our advanced microneedling treatments can also rejuvenate the skin on the neck, décolleté (chest), arms, hands, abdomen, legs, and back. Each area is individually assessed and treated, ensuring optimal results and tailored care for every client.

Microneedling Edmonton Infographic Summary
Watch a Microneedling Session
Your microneedling journey begins with a comprehensive skin consultation. We apply a potent numbing cream for comfort, followed by precise microneedling to stimulate collagen, rejuvenate texture, and tighten skin. Mild redness post-procedure is typical, with visible results emerging within weeks and optimal results after multiple sessions. Boost your microneedling outcomes by adding Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or specialized growth-factor serums. These powerful add-ons enhance collagen synthesis, significantly improving skin rejuvenation and recovery.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Microneedling and Who Should Avoid It?
Microneedling is an excellent treatment for individuals seeking to improve skin texture, reduce acne scars, minimize fine lines, or shrink enlarged pores. It’s suitable for most skin types and tones and is especially beneficial for those looking for a natural, collagen-boosting solution with minimal downtime. However, microneedling may not be appropriate for everyone. Individuals with active acne, skin infections, open wounds, or a history of keloid scarring should avoid treatment until cleared by a medical professional. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre in Edmonton, we perform a thorough consultation to ensure microneedling is safe and effective for your skin type and concerns.
