Microneedling Facial

Hammersmith, West London

Revitalise your skin with our advanced microneedling facial in Hammersmith and West London. Also known as collagen induction therapy, this treatment uses ultra-fine, sterile needle bundles to safely and effectively improve skin tone, texture, and firmness—while helping reduce the appearance of scars and wrinkles.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a simple and effective way of generating growth factors and stimulating your skin’s natural ability to heal. Fine sterile needle bundles are repeatedly inserted into the skin using a specialised device, creating thousands of microscopic injuries.

The body responds with a natural healing process, generating new, collagen-rich tissue that improves overall skin tone and texture.

Benefits of Skin Needling Treatment

This non-invasive treatment offers visible, long-lasting results. Benefits of skin needling treatment include:

  • Enhanced collagen production for firmer, plumper skin

  • Improved skin texture and evenness of tone

  • Reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines

  • Visible improvement in scarring, including acne scars

Each tiny needle can also help break down scar tissue, making microneedling for scarring particularly effective.

Dermapen for Skin Renewal

Sometimes referred to as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is often performed with a device such as the Dermapen. This tool allows for precise, controlled stimulation, ensuring your skin creates new, healthier tissue with every session.

By encouraging the skin to make new tissue, there may be more collagen after treatment, helping skin appear firmer, smoother, and more youthful.

Microneedling for Wrinkles and Scarring

It’s normal for the skin to lose collagen through ageing or injury. Microneedling for wrinkles helps reverse this by boosting collagen and elastin, leading to firmer skin with a more youthful appearance.

For clients dealing with past acne or skin trauma, microneedling for scarring can significantly reduce the depth and visibility of scars, leaving skin smoother and more even over time.

It’s particularly beneficial for those seeking microneedling for scarring or microneedling for wrinkles.

Yes, you may experience mild redness, swelling, and skin sensitivity for up to 72 hours after your skin needling treatment. Most clients resume normal activities within a couple of days, but it’s important to follow post-care advice to protect the healing skin.

Results from Dermapen for skin renewal can begin to appear after around 6 weeks, with full results developing over time. The benefits of increased collagen can last up to 12 months, while improvements in scarring and stretch marks are generally permanent.

Microneedling and Botox target different concerns, so one isn’t necessarily better than the other—it depends on your skin goals.

  • Microneedling stimulates collagen production to improve skin texture, reduce scarring, and minimise fine lines over time. It’s ideal for skin rejuvenation, acne scars, and overall tone and firmness.

  • Botox, on the other hand, temporarily relaxes facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles, particularly around the forehead, eyes, and frown lines.

In many cases, the two treatments can complement each other. During your consultation, we can advise which is best for your skin and desired outcome.
