Microneedling: Collagen Induction for a Youthful Complexion
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that promotes collagen production and improves your skin's overall health. Collagen is a vital protein that provides your skin with structure, elasticity, and a youthful appearance. As we age, collagen production naturally slows down, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven skin texture.
How Microneedling Works:
This innovative treatment utilizes a device with tiny sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. Your body responds by triggering a natural healing process, which increases collagen and elastin production. This results in:
Smoother, Younger-Looking Skin: Reduced appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and signs of aging.
Improved Skin Texture & Tone: Enhanced firmness, elasticity, and a more radiant complexion.
Reduced Scars & Stretch Marks: Diminished appearance of acne scars and other imperfections.
Benefits of Microneedling for All Skin Types:
Safe and effective for various skin concerns.
Stimulates collagen production by up to 100%.
Reduces the appearance of scars, stretch marks, and open pores.
Improves skin texture, treats wrinkles, and evens skin tone.

Stimulate Collagen, Renew Your Skin: Unveiling the Benefits of Microneedling
Knowing Kay was a qualified nurse put me at ease when getting my semi-permanent eyeliner done. She took time to explain the process and aftercare and her salon was spotless without being clinical. I was so impressed by the results that i booked in to get a lash lift and tint too. My morning routine is now so much quicker!

Kay has been super informative about the procedures she does and reassuring. Her background in nursing is a huge plus, ensuring the professionalism would you hope for and expect. Highly recommended and just a lovely person.
Becky Williams
I have the Vitamin B12 injections, I heard good things about the treatment so gave it a try and I’m glad I did. Doing a manual job in all weathers can be tiring but this has definitely given me a boost, more energy it’s great. Kay knows her stuff, I went to her as she’s a nurse. She’s very professional and friendly. Wouldn’t go to anyone else now

Frequently asked questions
What are your opening times?
We are open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 8pm.
What does it feel like and is it painful?
Microneedling feels similar to very fine sandpaper being moved across the skin. The treatment itself is tolerable and not painful so no numbing cream is required.
What can I expect after a Microneedling procedure?
The skin will be flushed, similar to a mild to moderate sunburn, for up to 24 hours. For deeper treatments this can last for a couple of days. You may also experience mild swelling, dryness, and tightness. Side effects are temporary and typically resolve within 3 days. Total healing time depends on the depth of the treatment, skin type, and skin condition. Some patients may heal completely in 24 hrs.
Do I need to do anything before or after my treatment?
Before your microneedling treatment you should avoid the use of self-tanning products for up to 48 hours, as well as avoiding direct sun exposure. Do not use any skin products containing vitamin A or retinol for 24 hours. To optimise healing do not use any vitamin A or C serums, retinol, or any alcohol-based toners for at least 3 days after your procedure and avoid direct sun exposure.
When will I see results?
Clients typically notice an immediate glow, but visible improvement will take about 2-4 weeks and can continue for up to 6 months as the skin heals and produces collagen and elastin.
How many treatments will I need?

This will all be discussed at your consultation, including the expected number of treatments which is dependant on the level of skin damage. You can however expect to see a gradual enhancement throughout the treatment course
