Microneedling
Elegance Sculpting is the best Microneedling clinic in Parksville. Microneedling is an advanced, minimally invasive procedure that punctures micro-sized holes into your skin, promoting collagen production, thus increasing the appearance of younger skin and assisting with the absorption of skin care products.
We’re leaders in the Microneedling skin revolution, but it’s not just us that are raving about this procedure. A recent study reveals that almost 100 percent of microneedling participants reported a noticeable improvement in their skins’ appearance.
What is Microneeding?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that evenly stimulates the epidermal layer of the skin using micro-tiny needles in either a hand held roller or an electronic pen. The small punctures in the skin stimulate the production of collagen that helps to firm and strengthen skin, resulting in a younger looking appearance.

Although you will see results in as little as one treatment, to experience the most optimal results over time from the Microneedling process it is best to endure a series of treatments. We recommend three treatments, as that is when you will see the best results.
There are no serious side effects of the Microneedling procedure that you should be concerned about. Typically patients will notice redness of the skin for a few hours after the treatment, and some with sensitive skin might experience minimal bleeding. Both are normal reactions to the skin once the procedure is complete.
