Written and reviewed by Lee Jameson-Laffey, Advanced Aesthetic Practitioner · Updated November 2026

Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels in the skin using sterile, single-use needle cartridges. This carefully managed process supports the skin’s natural repair response.


Treatment can be adapted to different areas and concerns, from general texture and radiance to fine lines and suitable acne scarring. Results build gradually and a course may be recommended for more established concerns.

What It Treats

Common concerns we treat

How It Works

Controlled renewal, personalised to you

A sterile microneedling device is passed across the treatment area at a depth selected for your skin, concern and anatomy. The aim is to trigger a controlled repair response without unnecessarily traumatising the skin.


Professional serums may be selected where appropriate, but the treatment plan always starts with skin assessment, contraindication screening and realistic expectations.

Risks & Safety

Informed decisions matter

Expected effects can include redness, warmth, tightness, dryness, tenderness, pinpoint bleeding and temporary swelling. Less common risks include infection, prolonged irritation, pigmentation changes, scarring, cold-sore reactivation and an unsatisfactory result.


We explain expected recovery, aftercare, warning signs and the contact procedure before you decide whether to proceed. Urgent or unexpected symptoms must be reported immediately.

Questions

FAQ

Most people describe warmth, scratching or sensitivity rather than severe pain. Comfort varies with the area and treatment depth.

A single treatment can refresh the skin, while a course may be recommended for established texture, lines or scarring.

The skin may look fresher once initial redness settles, but collagen-related improvement develops gradually over the following weeks.

You will receive specific aftercare, including when it is safe to resume make-up and active skincare.

A single treatment is £75 and a course of three is £150.
