Microneedling & Nanoneedling in edmonton

Which Treatment Is Right for Your Skin?

Microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for improving acne marks, acne scarring, texture, fine lines, and overall skin quality — but not all microneedling is created equal.

At YEG Acne Edit, microneedling is performed with intention, advanced protocols, and options tailored to your skin’s needs — especially if you’re acne-prone or historically reactive.

Let’s break down your options.

Microneedling (AKA Collagen Induction Therapy)

Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), works by creating controlled micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, improves cellular turnover, and remodels the skin from within.

Best for:

  • Acne marks (PIE / PIH)

  • Acne scarring

  • Uneven texture

  • Fine lines and early aging

Downtime: 3–6 days (varies by depth and skin response)

Clear Skin Microneedling (Acne-Safe Protocol)

“I love microneedling… but it always breaks me out.”
If you’ve said this — this protocol was created for you.

Clear Skin Microneedling is specifically designed for acne-prone clients who need collagen stimulation without triggering congestion or post-treatment breakouts.

This protocol goes above and beyond standard microneedling by incorporating acne-supportive techniques and a finishing ‘secret sauce’ that helps keep acne bacteria at bay while the skin heals.

Best for:

  • Active acne or breakout-prone skin

  • Acne marks and mild scarring

  • Clients who’ve reacted to microneedling in the past

Why it’s different:
This isn’t “microneedling and hope for the best.” It’s microneedling with strategy, barrier respect, and acne control built in.

Epicutis Microneedling (Fastest Recovery)

If your top priority is rapid healing with minimal inflammation, Epicutis Microneedling is your girl.

This option incorporates Epicutis bio-active technology to support barrier repair, calm inflammation, and significantly reduce post-treatment downtime.

Best for:

  • Clients wanting faster recovery

  • Sensitive or reactive skin

  • Busy schedules that don’t allow extended redness

Bonus: Skin often looks calm and hydrated sooner than traditional microneedling.

Microneedling with PDRN (Advanced Regeneration)

This is microneedling with a regenerative upgrade.

PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) supports cellular repair, tissue regeneration, and accelerated healing. When paired with microneedling, it enhances results while supporting healthier, more resilient skin long-term.

Best for:

  • Acne scarring

  • Aging skin

  • Clients wanting corrective results + advanced skin regeneration

This option is ideal when you want to do more than stimulate collagen — you want to actively improve skin quality at a cellular level.

Classic Microneedling (Face, Neck & Décolleté)

This is your traditional microneedling session performed on the face, neck, and décolleté to address overall skin quality, firmness, and texture.

Best for:

  • Anti-aging

  • Texture refinement

  • Preventative collagen stimulation

✨ Any of the above ampoules or upgrades can be added to this treatment for an additional charge, allowing your session to be fully customized.

Nanoneedling in Edmonton: What Rezenerate NANONEEDLING Actually Does for Your Skin

Nanoneedling is not a watered-down treatment — it’s precision skin refinement with little to no downtime.

At Acne Edit, nanoneedling is performed using Rezenerate technology, a professional nano-infusion system that combines ultra-fine nano tips with vibratory massage to dramatically improve product penetration and skin function — without creating injury to the skin.

This makes it ideal for clients who want results without peeling, redness, or recovery time.

💧 Immediate & Ongoing Skin Benefits

Boosts serum penetration for deeper, more effective delivery of active ingredients
Improves hydration and plumpness, leaving skin visibly refreshed
Brightens and smooths texture for an instant glow
Reduces early signs of aging, including fine lines, dullness, and uneven tone
Enhances circulation and lymphatic flow thanks to Rezenerate’s vibratory massage technology

Because we’re not breaking the skin barrier, results are immediate — and cumulative with regular treatments.

A Fully Customized NanoNeedling Treatment

Every nanoneedling session at Acne Edit is custom-tailored to your skin’s needs. This is not a one-size-fits-all facial.

You can choose between:

Acne Repair NanoNeedling
Designed to support breakout-prone, inflamed, or sensitized skin by calming inflammation, improving hydration, and strengthening the barrier — without triggering congestion.

Anti-Aging NanoNeedling
Focused on brightening, smoothing, and refining texture while supporting collagen health and overall skin quality.

Optional Upgrade: PDRN can be added to your nanoneedling treatment for enhanced cellular repair, regeneration, and long-term skin resilience.

Who Nanoneedling Is Best For

  • Clients wanting little to no downtime

  • Sensitive or reactive skin types

  • Acne-prone clients not ready for traditional microneedling

  • Maintenance between microneedling sessions

  • Anyone wanting Immediate glow, hydration, and skin refinement — fast

Downtime: Minimal to none

NanoNeedling vs. Microneedling

Nanoneedling focuses on infusion and skin function, while microneedling focuses on collagen remodeling. Both are powerful — the key is choosing the right one for your skin right now.

Because results don’t come from trends — they come from intention; planned results and set goals.
