Medical-Grade Microneedling Care in Ottawa

Help your skin look clearer and more even. Ideal for post-acne marks and texture concerns.

Microneedling for Natural-Looking Skin Renewal

If your skin has developed a rough texture, noticeable pores, early fine lines, or marks that don’t fade easily, collagen induction therapy may be worth considering. It’s a non-surgical option that works gradually, helping the skin improve over time rather than all at once, which is why the results look so natural.

At HY Cosmetics & Minor Surgery, treatments are performed under medical oversight by one of our board-certified surgeons. You’ll receive a treatment plan tailored to your skin type and goals. You can expect minimal downtime and results that align with your vision, as we are committed to setting ambitious yet achievable treatment goals.

What This Treatment Does and What to Expect Over Time

Microneedling (often called collagen induction therapy) is a minimally invasive treatment that supports your skin’s natural renewal process. A medical-grade device uses sterile, single-use needles to create tiny, controlled micro-channels.

After treatment, your skin enacts its natural healing process. Over the following weeks, collagen and elastin gradually build up, which is why the results look as natural as they do.

The Treatment Process at Our Ottawa Clinic

We keep your visit simple and comfortable, with clear steps, so that there are no surprises and nothing feels confusing or rushed.

  • Consultation: One of our physicians assesses your skin, discusses your goals, and confirms if the treatment is a good fit.
  • Numbing: A topical anesthetic cream goes on for about 20–30 minutes to ensure comfort throughout the procedure.
  • Treatment: Typically, treatment lasts 30–60 minutes, depending on the area: face, neck, scalp, or body.
  • Post-treatment support: Recovery serums are applied immediately after the appointment to allow for maximum absorption (and PRP if it’s part of your plan).

Typical Downtime

  • Mild pinkness for 24-48 hours
  • Many people return to normal routines pretty quickly
  • Light makeup is often fine the next day (based on aftercare guidance)

What We Use at HY Cosmetics & Minor Surgery

Depending on your goals, treatment may be paired with:

  • Medical grade serums
  • Optional add-ons like PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or exosomes (when appropriate)

Benefits of Professional Microneedling

People book clinically supervised microneedling to enjoy one primary benefit, which is that results typically unfold steadily and naturally. Not “flawless skin by tomorrow.” More like skin that gradually looks smoother, calmer, and more even as the weeks go by.

What it can help improve

Depending on your skin and what you’re trying to tackle, it may help with:

  • Post-acne texture concerns (including mild or pitted scarring)
  • Fine lines and premature signs of aging
  • Visible pores and uneven texture
  • Uneven tone from sun exposure or post-breakout marks (hyperpigmentation, melasma or sun spots)
  • Stretch marks (in commonly affected areas such as the face and body)
  • Mild laxity (sagging skin) on the face, neck, or décolletage
  • Persistent redness or rosacea
  • Dull, tired-looking skin

What results usually look like

Most results build across your series of sessions, and then keep improving for weeks to months afterward, ultimately peaking somewhere between 6 and 12 months after treatment. This gradual improvement is due to the fact that you’re supporting your skin’s own collagen response – not trying to mask areas of concern with fillers or toxins.

Frequently Asked Questions About Ottawa Microneedling

Here are quick answers to the most common questions to help you make an informed decision.

How many sessions do I need?
Most people see the best results with 3-6 sessions, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on what we’re treating and how your skin responds along the way.
Does microneedling hurt?

With numbing cream, it’s usually very manageable. Most describe it as a light “sandpaper” feeling – more weird than painful.

How much does it cost in Ottawa?

Pricing starts at $350 per session. If you’re doing a series, packages may be available, and we’ll confirm your exact quote during your consultation.

When will I see results?

Many people notice a fresh glow within about a week. Bigger changes tend to build over the next several weeks and up to 12 months as collagen support develops.

Can I combine it with other treatments?

Often, yes. Depending on your goals, it can be paired with laser resurfacing, or injectables – but only if it genuinely makes sense for your plan.
