Microneedling
Stimulate your skin's natural renewal with microneedling in Stoke-on-Trent. Reduce acne scars, fine lines, and uneven texture by harnessing your body's own collagen production.
Microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for transforming skin texture, and it works by encouraging your body to do what it does best: heal and renew itself. The treatment creates thousands of tiny, controlled micro-channels in the skin, which triggers your natural wound-healing response and stimulates fresh collagen and elastin production. The result is smoother, firmer, more even skin that continues to improve for weeks after each session.
At Nadia Skin & Aesthetics, microneedling is used to treat a wide range of concerns including acne scarring, enlarged pores, fine lines, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, and overall skin texture. The depth of the needles is adjusted based on the area being treated and your specific skin concern, ensuring a treatment that is both effective and appropriate for your skin.
Treatment time varies from 15 minutes for a targeted area to an hour for a comprehensive facial session. A numbing cream is applied beforehand, so while you may feel some sensation during the treatment, it should not be painful. Your skin will appear red and feel warm afterwards, similar to mild sunburn. This typically settles within 24 to 48 hours, and most clients feel comfortable returning to work the next day.
The real magic of microneedling happens beneath the surface over the following weeks as new collagen forms. You will begin to notice improvements in skin texture and tone within two to four weeks, with results continuing to build. For the most significant transformation, a course of three to six sessions spaced four to six weeks apart is recommended.
Microneedling is a versatile treatment that works well on its own and can also be combined with serums or growth factors for enhanced results. It suits all skin types and tones, which is a significant advantage over some laser treatments that carry risks for darker skin.
If you have acne scars, uneven texture, or signs of ageing that you want to address without harsh chemicals or significant downtime, microneedling offers a proven, natural approach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does microneedling hurt?+
A numbing cream is applied before treatment to minimise discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild prickling or vibrating feeling on the skin. It is generally very well tolerated, and any discomfort is brief. The numbing cream makes a significant difference.
How many microneedling sessions do I need?+
For best results, a course of 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended. You will see some improvement after a single session, but the most noticeable transformation in acne scarring, texture, and tone comes with a full course as collagen remodelling builds over time.
What is the downtime after microneedling?+
Your skin will be red and feel warm for 24 to 48 hours, similar to mild sunburn. Most clients are comfortable returning to normal activities the next day. You should avoid makeup for 12 to 24 hours, stay out of direct sun, and wear SPF diligently as your skin heals.
Can microneedling help with acne scars?+
Yes, microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for acne scarring. It works by stimulating your skin's natural collagen production, which gradually fills and smooths out scarred areas. Multiple sessions are usually needed for significant improvement, but many clients see a noticeable difference even after their first treatment.
