Reveal Your Skin’s Natural Radiance

Section Separator Image

Your skin is capable of extraordinary renewal and microneedling is the key that unlocks it. At NuDerma Laser Clinic in North Vancouver, our medical grade Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) uses precision micro-needling to activate your skin’s deepest healing pathways, triggering a natural cascade of collagen and elastin production that transforms your complexion from within. Whether your concern is acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven texture, fine lines, or dull and tired skin, microneedling at NuDerma delivers measurable, visible results beautifully and safely.

Microneedling also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) works by creating thousands of precise, controlled micro-channels in the skin’s surface using ultra fine, medical-grade needles. These micro-injuries are carefully calibrated to be below the threshold of pain but above the threshold of healing triggering the skin’s wound-healing response without causing visible surface damage. As the skin repairs these micro-channels, it floods the area with growth factors, new collagen fibres, and elastin proteins rebuilding the skin’s structural foundation from within.

At NuDerma, we pair our medical-grade microneedling sessions with clinician selected pharmaceutical grade serums including hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and peptide complexes which are absorbed deep into the dermis through the newly created micro-channels, dramatically amplifying the treatment’s efficacy. The result is a luminous, refined, and genuinely healthier skin that improves with every session.

Our Microneedling Treatment Process

Your Personalised Skin Consultation

Every microneedling journey at NuDerma begins with a thorough, one-on-one skin consultation. Your certified clinician will assess your skin type, Fitzpatrick classification, active concerns whether acne scarring, enlarged pores, fine lines, or overall dullness and review your skincare history and any contraindications. From this assessment, a fully personalised treatment protocol is designed: needle depth, number of passes, serum selection, and the number of sessions recommended to achieve your specific goals. There is no guesswork only a precise, evidence-based plan built entirely around your skin.

our Medical Grade Microneedling Session

On the day of your treatment, a pharmaceutical-grade topical numbing cream is applied to the entire treatment area and left to take full effect for 30 to 45 minutes ensuring your session is as comfortable as possible. Your clinician then works the medical grade microneedling device systematically across the skin in controlled, overlapping passes, adjusting needle depth zone by zone to match the varying anatomy of your face, neck, or body. As the micro-channels are created, a clinician-selected serum typically containing hyaluronic acid, peptides, or growth factors is applied continuously, allowing active ingredients to penetrate up to 300 times deeper than surface application alone. The full session typically takes 45 to 60 minutes, and most clients describe the sensation as a mild vibration or light scratching very manageable with the numbing cream in place.

Aftercare, Skin Renewal & Results

Immediately following your session, your skin will appear pink to mildly red — similar in appearance to a moderate sunburn. This is a completely normal and expected part of the healing response and typically resolves within 12 to 24 hours. Your clinician will apply a soothing, barrier-supporting post-treatment mask before you leave, and provide you with a complete written aftercare protocol covering approved products, SPF guidance, and activities to avoid for the next 48 to 72 hours. Over the following days, your skin enters its active collagen synthesis phase with new collagen fibres forming deep in the dermis. The most visible improvements in texture, scar depth, and luminosity emerge progressively over 4 to 8 weeks, building with each successive session in your treatment course.

Your skin's most powerful renewal process starts with one session. Book your microneedling consultation at NuDerma today.

NuDerma Laser Clinic offers medical-grade microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy) in North Vancouver. Safe for all skin types, our microneedling treatments address acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, and uneven texture. Minimal downtime. Visible results. Book your free consultation today.

A: Microneedling effectively treats acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin texture, skin laxity, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, and dull or fatigued complexions.

A: For general skin rejuvenation and texture improvement, 3 to 4 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart are recommended. For deeper acne scarring or more significant skin concerns, a series of 6 sessions may be advised.

A: A topical numbing cream is applied prior to your session, making the treatment very comfortable. Most clients describe a mild scratching or vibrating sensation at most.

A: Expect mild to moderate redness, similar to a light sunburn, for 12 to 24 hours post-treatment. Skin may feel slightly tight or sensitive for up to 48 hours. Most clients return to normal activities and light makeup within 24 hours.
A: Medical-grade microneedling devices used at NuDerma operate at greater needle depths (0.5mm–2.5mm), higher precision, and sterile single-use needle cartridges — delivering results that at-home tools simply cannot replicate and cannot achieve safely.

A: An immediate glow and improved skin texture is often noticed after the first session. Collagen remodelling continues for 4 to 8 weeks post-treatment, with the most significant improvements visible after a full course of sessions.

A: Yes microneedling pairs beautifully with Geneo X facials, Laser Genesis, and targeted serums. Your clinician will design a combination protocol if appropriate for your skin goals.
A: Before your session: discontinue retinoids (tretinoin, retinol), exfoliating acids (AHAs, BHAs, vitamin C serums), and blood thinning supplements such as fish oil, vitamin E, and aspirin for at least 5 to 7 days prior to treatment. Avoid waxing, laser treatments, or any other active skin procedures in the treatment area for 2 weeks beforehand, and arrive with completely clean, product free skin. After your session: for the first 72 hours, use only the gentle, clinician approved products provided by your NuDerma specialist. Avoid all active ingredients retinoids, exfoliating acids, vitamin C, and niacinamide as well as makeup (where possible), until your skin barrier has fully recovered. Apply a broad spectrum SPF 50 every morning without exception throughout your treatment course, as your skin will be more photosensitive following each session.
A: Yes one of the most significant advantages of microneedling over laser-based treatments is that it is safe and effective across all Fitzpatrick skin types, including Type V and VI (deeper skin tones). Because microneedling does not use heat or light energy, there is no risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) a concern that limits the use of many laser and energy based devices on darker complexions. Whether your skin is sensitive, oily, dry, combination, acne-prone, or mature, NuDerma's clinicians will adapt the treatment protocol to suit your unique skin profile.

A: Both treatments use microneedles to stimulate collagen, but they work at different levels and address different concerns. Standard microneedling is ideal for improving skin texture, reducing surface-level acne scarring, refining pores, and boosting overall radiance — with minimal downtime and a lower price point. RF
