Sculptra Granulomas
A rare inflammatory reaction to Sculptra injections, resulting in small nodules around the injection site.
Facial Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin procedure that is used for rejuvenating the skin from within. In this procedure, extremely fine, short needles are used to make surface-level pricks in the skin, which naturally prompts the body to produce collagen and elastin. An elastin boost helps to diminish signs of aging and makes the skin look younger, healthier, and clearer.
At Integra SkinLab we use the eDermastamp by Dermaroller (which is Health Canada approved) with our Facial Microneedling procedure in combination with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring sugar molecule. Hyaluronic acid has a unique property of binding with water on a molecular level, which helps to boost skin hydration and essentially plump up skin for an improved look and feel.
This is especially beneficial for reducing fine lines and other signs of aging that are often associated with dry skin and related skin issues.
Our expertise lies in ultrasound-guided treatments that not only help address concerns but also boosts your self-assurance.
Using ultrasound technology imaging in real-time to guide the injectables ensures a more precise and natural-looking result, while minimizing the risk of complications.
