Microneedling

Service Description

Microneedling is a collagen-stimulating skin treatment that uses fine, sterile needles to create thousands of micro-channels in the skin. This triggers your body's natural wound-healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother, more refined skin. It's one of our most popular treatments at Ascot Skin & Body Clinic for clients searching for microneedling near me who want real, visible results with little to no downtime. Benefits of microneedling: - Stimulates collagen and elastin for firmer, plumper skin - Improves acne scarring and other types of scarring - Refines pores and improves overall skin texture - Fades sun damage, pigmentation and dark spots - Softens fine lines and early signs of ageing - Can be combined with skin boosters or PRP for enhanced results - Suitable for use on the face and body What to expect at your appointment: Every treatment starts with a full skin consultation so we can tailor the depth and approach to your individual concerns. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand for comfort. The microneedling device is then passed over the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries that kick-start your skin's natural repair process. Most clients describe mild discomfort rather than pain, and appointments typically take 45-60 minutes. Aftercare: Skin will look and feel flushed for 24-48 hours, similar to mild sunburn. We recommend avoiding makeup for 24 hours, using gentle, fragrance-free skincare, and applying SPF daily afterwards. Results build gradually over several weeks as new collagen forms. A course of 3-6 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, is recommended for best results, with occasional maintenance treatments after. FAQs: How many microneedling sessions will I need? Most clients see optimal results from a course of 3-6 sessions, spaced around a month apart, with maintenance treatments every few months afterwards. Is microneedling painful? A numbing cream is applied beforehand, so most clients find it comfortable rather than painful. How long is the recovery time? Most people experience redness for 24-48 hours and can return to normal activities the next day. Can microneedling be combined with other treatments? Yes - microneedling pairs well with Profhilo, polynucleotide skin boosters and PRP for enhanced skin rejuvenation.
