<p class="p1">On Reawakening Beauty, host Shawna Patruno interviews Mary Massihi, founder of Skinsation Aesthetics in London, Ontario, about microneedling (collagen induction therapy). Mary explains that microneedling uses tiny sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries that stimulate collagen and elastin for firmer, smoother skin, and notes that it can help with acne scarring, pores, and anti-aging, but may not be suitable during pregnancy or for some autoimmune disorders. She outlines prep and aftercare: stop active ingredients 5–7 days prior, expect 1–3 days of downtime (or schedule a week before events), and for 48 hours avoid makeup, workouts/sweating, and sauna while focusing on hydration and mineral sunscreen. She recommends three sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart, then quarterly maintenance, discusses waiting two weeks after Botox/fillers or laser hair removal, and mentions pairing Aerolase laser with microneedling. Mary advises researching providers and tools (including asking about pen type and depth), and shares booking info via skinsation.me and Instagram @<a href= "https://www.instagram.com/skinsationaestheticslondon/"><span class="s1">skinsationaestheticslondon</span></a>.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro</p> <p class="p1">00:21 Mary's Background</p> <p class="p1">01:21 Microneedling Explained</p> <p class="p1">02:09 Who Should Avoid It</p> <p class="p1">02:48 Downtime and Prep</p> <p class="p1">03:57 Pairing With Other Treatments</p> <p class="p1">04:39 Aerolase Laser Combo</p> <p class="p1">05:49 Treatment Plan and Frequency</p> <p class="p1">06:41 Choosing the Right Pen</p> <p class="p1">08:11 Finding a Qualified Provider</p> <p class="p1">09:52 Aftercare and What to Avoid</p> <p class="p1">11:19 Seasonal Timing Tips</p> <p class="p1">12:05 Where to Book and Wrap Up</p> <p class="p1"> </p> <p class="p1">Host Website: <a href= "https://www.reawakeningbeauty.ca/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Reawakening Beauty</a></p> <p class="p1">Guest Website: <a href="https://www.skinsation.me/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Skinsation</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Photo credit: @paul_iacoviello</p>
