Microneedling in Hadleigh, Essex
Microneedling is a treatment for scars, fine lines, large pores and rough or uneven skin. If your skin looks tired, scarred or dull, this treatment helps it repair itself. A device with very fine needles makes tiny, controlled punctures in the top layer of the skin. Your body responds by producing new collagen and elastin, the natural proteins that keep skin firm and smooth. The result is smoother, brighter and more even skin. Every treatment is carried out by a registered nurse at our clinic in Hadleigh, Essex.

How does Microneedling compare to other skin rejuvenation treatments?
Microneedling is gentler than many skin rejuvenation treatments. The tiny needles make controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which triggers your body's own healing and builds new collagen and elastin. Unlike laser treatments, it is safe for all skin types and there is very little downtime.
What is the downtime after a Microneedling treatment?
Downtime is minimal. Your skin may be red and slightly swollen for a few days, similar to mild sunburn. Most people go straight back to their normal day. Avoid strenuous exercise and sun exposure for a short time after your treatment.
Is Microneedling suitable for all skin types?
Microneedling suits most skin types, including sensitive skin, and treats ageing, scars and enlarged pores. It is not recommended if you have an active skin infection, certain acne conditions or extremely sensitive skin. Every treatment starts with a consultation so we can check it is right for your skin.

FAQs
What Microneedling machine do you use?
We use the Dermapen 4, a CE-marked medical device. It has adjustable needle depth, a high-speed motor and a dedicated scar setting that reduces pain and protects the surface of your skin. It builds collagen, improves skin texture and reduces scarring, with very little discomfort or downtime.
Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Microneedling can be combined with serums, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or laser treatments to boost results for specific skin concerns.
Is microneedling painful?
Most people find it comfortable. We apply numbing cream before the treatment to keep any discomfort to a minimum.
How long do the effects of microneedling last?
Results vary from person to person, but the new collagen your skin produces keeps improving texture and tone for several months after treatment. We may recommend maintenance sessions to keep your results going.
