Microneedling

Microneedling for Face, Neck & Body in Birmingham

Microneedling is an advanced skin treatment designed to stimulate the skin’s natural repair processes, improving texture, tone, and overall skin quality. At our Birmingham clinic, microneedling is delivered through an experienced practitioner–led, outcome-focused approach, with treatment plans tailored to the face, neck, and body depending on individual skin concerns.

This treatment is particularly valued for its ability to support skin regeneration while maintaining a natural appearance.

What is microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as skin needling, involves the use of fine, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-channels stimulate collagen and elastin production while enhancing the skin’s ability to repair and renew itself.

Microneedling does not add volume or change facial structure. Instead, it works by strengthening and improving the skin from within.

How microneedling works

When the skin is microneedled, it responds by activating healing pathways that:

• Stimulate collagen production
• Improve elastin structure
• Enhance skin renewal
• Increase absorption of topical treatments

Over time, this leads to smoother, firmer, and more even-looking skin. Results develop progressively, making microneedling ideal for patients seeking refined, long-term improvement.

Areas microneedling can treat

Microneedling is a versatile treatment that can be performed on multiple areas:

Face

• Full face rejuvenation
• Fine lines and texture concerns
• Enlarged pores

Neck and décolletage

• Crepey or thinning skin
• Fine lines and sun damage

Body

• Abdomen
• Thighs
• Arms
• Back
• Areas affected by scarring or stretch marks

Each area requires tailored needle depth and technique, guided by experience and skin assessment.

Skin conditions microneedling can help improve

Microneedling is commonly used to improve a range of skin concerns:

• Fine lines and wrinkles

By stimulating collagen, microneedling can help soften fine lines and improve skin firmness.

• Acne scarring

Microneedling can support skin remodelling, helping to improve the appearance of atrophic acne scars over time.

• Stretch marks

On the body, microneedling may help improve the texture and appearance of stretch marks by encouraging collagen repair.

• Uneven skin tone and texture

Microneedling can help smooth rough texture and promote a more even complexion.

• Enlarged pores

By improving skin structure, microneedling can reduce the appearance of enlarged pores.

• Sun-damaged skin

Microneedling supports skin renewal, helping improve skin affected by sun exposure.

• Dull or tired-looking skin

The treatment enhances skin vitality and radiance by stimulating natural regeneration.
