Microneedling – Skin Rejuvenation & Scar Reduction in Norwich
Achieve smoother, healthier, and rejuvenated skin with Microneedling treatments at High Grade House, your trusted Norwich skin clinic. Microneedling stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, and diminishing acne scars.
Microneedling, also known as derma-rolling, is an effective medical treatment designed to enhance skin regeneration and treat various skin concerns. By using a specialized device, this procedure creates micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing response and fostering the growth of new, healthy tissues rich in collagen and elastin fibers.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure performed on the face, neck, and body, aimed at treating conditions such as:
Mild to moderate acne
Surgical or keloid scarring
Wrinkles and fine lines
Stretch marks
Large pores
Uneven skin texture
Important Note: Microneedling is not suitable for clients with active or aggressive acne, as it may exacerbate the condition.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Uses tiny, controlled needles to create micro-injuries in the skin
Stimulates natural collagen and elastin production
Improves skin texture, firmness, and tone
Safe, minimally invasive, with minimal downtime
Who Can Benefit
Individuals with acne scars or fine lines
Those seeking overall skin rejuvenation
Anyone wanting firmer, smoother, and more youthful skin
The procedure typically involves the following steps:
Consultation: Before treatment, a full consultation is conducted to discuss medical history, skin concerns, and treatment expectations.
Preparation: Once both the practitioner and client agree on the approach, a topical anesthetic is applied to ensure comfort during the procedure. This is usually left on the skin for 20-30 minutes.
The Microneedling Process: The handheld derma-roller device is then used to create micro-abrasions in the skin. It penetrates the upper skin layers, reaching depths of up to 2mm. This controlled injury prompts collagen and elastin production in the skin.
Post-Treatment Reaction: Following the treatment, the skin appears red, and minor blood spotting may be visible. These effects are normal and indicate that the skin is responding to the procedure.
The entire process typically takes around 1 hour per session.
Treatment Plan and Frequency
Microneedling is generally recommended as a course of 3 to 6 sessions, depending on the severity of the skin condition. Sessions are spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow the skin to heal and regenerate properly.
Downtime and Aftercare
Microneedling is known for its minimal downtime. Patients can expect:
Downtime: 1-2 days of redness and slight swelling, which will gradually subside to a normal appearance.
Sun Protection: Sunscreen is imperative post-treatment to protect the skin from UV rays, which can be more sensitive after procedures.
Expected Results
Visible results from microneedling typically emerge after the 2nd or 3rd treatment. Benefits include:
Improved skin texture and pigmentation
Reduction in the appearance of large pores
Enhanced skin hydration and circulation
Smoothing of wrinkles and fine lines
The results from microneedling can be long-lasting and are best maintained with a tailored at-home skincare regimen or in combination with other skin treatments, such as:
