Microneedling treatment at Wilbury Clinic

Consultation-led. Always.

The honest bit

What it is, and
who it's for.

Straight talk before we start. Microneedling is a skin renewal treatment, not a quick fix - and if it's not right for you, we'll say so.

What it is

A device fitted with very fine needles is glided across numbed skin, creating thousands of tiny controlled channels. Your skin reads these as micro-injuries and switches on its natural repair - building fresh collagen over the following weeks.

The result is smoother texture, softer fine lines and a healthier glow - built gradually, session by session.

Good for you if
  • Your skin looks dull or feels uneven in texture
  • You want to soften acne scarring or enlarged pores
  • Fine lines and general skin quality are on your mind
  • You're happy to commit to a short course for best results
Not for you if
  • You're pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You have active acne, a cold sore or infection in the area
  • You've taken oral acne medication (isotretinoin) recently - we'll check
  • You're prone to keloid scarring - we'll assess this first

Your visit

Numbing first,
glow later.

The whole appointment is around 45-60 minutes, most of which is letting the numbing cream do its job. The needling itself is roughly 20 minutes.

  1. We chat first

    Your practitioner assesses your skin, talks through what's realistic for your concerns, and maps out how many sessions you're likely to need - no template plan.

  2. Numbing cream

    We cleanse the skin and apply a numbing cream, then give it around 20-30 minutes to take effect so the treatment stays comfortable.

  3. The treatment

    The device passes over your skin in sections, creating tiny channels. Most people describe it as a light prickle or fine sandpaper sensation - the numbing keeps it very manageable.

  4. Downtime to expect

    Skin looks flushed and feels warm, a bit like mild sunburn, for 24-48 hours. It may feel tight or flake slightly as it renews - easy to plan around a quiet day or two.

Results

What to expect,
when.

Collagen takes weeks to build, so microneedling works best as a course - your skin keeps improving in the weeks after each session.

  1. First few days

    Redness and warmth settle, and skin may feel tight or flake a little as the surface renews. Completely normal.

  2. 1-2 weeks after each session

    Skin looks fresher, smoother and brighter as the surface renews. The deeper collagen work is only just beginning.

  3. Across your course

    Most people need a course of around 3-6 sessions, spaced roughly 4-6 weeks apart, for a real difference in texture, scarring and fine lines.

  4. Longer term

    Results build gradually and keep improving over months. Occasional maintenance sessions help hold onto your glow.

Results vary from person to person - your likely outcome, number of sessions and spacing will be assessed honestly at your consultation.

Aftercare

Keep the glow going.

Simple rules while your skin repairs, big difference to your results. We'll give you the full rundown on the day - here's the short version.

Do

  • Cleanse gently and keep skin clean while it settles
  • Soothe with a bland, fragrance-free moisturiser
  • Wear SPF 30+ every day - your skin is more sun-sensitive now
  • Drink water and let your skin do its repair work

Avoid

  • × Makeup for the first 24 hours
  • × Active skincare - retinol, vitamin C, AHAs and BHAs - for around 5 days
  • × Direct sun, sunbeds and fake tan while skin is healing
  • × Sweaty workouts, saunas, steam and swimming for 48 hours
  • × Touching, scrubbing or picking at the skin

Questions

Asked all
the time.

Does it hurt?

We apply a numbing cream first and give it time to work, so most people feel pressure and a light prickle rather than pain. Bonier areas like the forehead can feel a little more, but it's generally very manageable - and we always check in with you as we go.

How many sessions will I need?

Microneedling works by building collagen over time, so it's a course rather than a one-off. Most people have around 3-6 sessions spaced roughly 4-6 weeks apart, depending on their skin and goals. We'll give you an honest plan at your consultation - and occasional maintenance sessions help hold your results.

When can I wear makeup again?

Give your skin a full 24 hours before applying makeup, so the tiny channels can close and settle. During that window, stick to a gentle moisturiser and SPF. After that you're free to get back to your usual routine, easing active ingredients back in over the following days.
