Microneedling is an advanced cosmetic treatment that rebuilds collagen in textured skin for beautifully smooth, radiant results. At Skincare by Skin Spot in Chilliwack, British Columbia, we use a specialized microneedling device fitted with several thin, hair‑like micro‑needles. When pressed into the skin, these needles create tiny micro‑channels that help your skin absorb medical‑grade skincare more effectively and trigger natural healing, stimulating new collagen where you need it most.
Clinician‑performed treatments with physician oversight; certified technician providers
Precise depth & pass mapping based on your skin and concern areas
Series‑based planning for consistent outcomes (typically 3 sessions for maximum results)

Microneedling uses ultra‑fine needles to create controlled micro‑channels in the skin, signaling your body to remodel collagen and elastin. As the skin repairs, texture, tone, and the look of scars improve.
Onset: fresh glow in 3–7 days
Peak remodeling: 4–6 weeks post‑treatment
Typical series: visible improvement after a single treatment; we generally recommend ~3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for best results
Acne scarring (rolling, shallow boxcar)
Lax skin and early fine lines
Sun damage and uneven tone
Enlarged pores / texture
Rosacea‑prone redness (case‑by‑case; eligibility assessed)
Fine lines and wrinkles
Stretch marks (select body areas)
We avoid microneedling over active pustular acne or open lesions and will stage your plan accordingly.
