Microneedling in BirminghamYour Own Collagen, Stimulated

The clearest sign is skin texture that does not improve with skincare alone. Enlarged pores, acne scarring, fine lines, and uneven texture are the most common concerns people bring to microneedling. If your skin looks rough under certain lighting, or you have scarring that has not faded over time, microneedling stimulates the collagen that smooths and refines the surface.

Some clients come in because their skin looks dull and lacks the firmness it had a few years ago. Others have tried exfoliating acids and seen limited results. Microneedling works differently — it creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger the skin to repair itself, producing new collagen over the following weeks. It is suitable for all skin types, though skin prone to pigmentation needs different settings and aftercare, which is assessed at your consultation.

Microneedling at our Moseley clinic is £85 per session. Numbing cream is applied for 20 to 30 minutes before the treatment begins, so the session is comfortable throughout. A sterile, medical-grade device creates fine channels in the skin, which trigger collagen and elastin production as they heal. The treatment takes 30 to 45 minutes depending on the area.

For most concerns, a course of three to six sessions is recommended, spaced four to six weeks apart. Results build gradually as collagen production increases — you will see improvements in texture and tone over the weeks following each session. Red Light Therapy can be added for £20 to reduce redness and speed up healing, and many clients book it as part of their microneedling session.

For clients who also want to address hydration and skin quality from within, Skin Boosters like Jalupro and Nucleofill pair well with microneedling. For a gentler starting point, Facials including dermaplaning and chemical peels are available from £40. See our full range of Skin Treatments for more options.

Our clinic on Swanshurst Lane in Moseley is easily reached from Kings Heath, Edgbaston, Hall Green, Bournville, Selly Oak and Harborne. Street parking is available on Swanshurst Lane with no permit needed.

Local expertise matters with microneedling because the needle depth and settings need to match your skin type and concern. Skin that is more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation needs different settings and aftercare, which is assessed at your consultation. Hafsa Ashadu-Campbell has over 13 years of NHS clinical experience, including dermatology at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Your appointment starts with a consultation. We assess your skin, discuss your concerns, and confirm that microneedling is the right treatment. Numbing cream is applied for 20 to 30 minutes. The treatment itself takes 30 to 45 minutes. You will feel a mild vibrating sensation, not pain.

Expect redness for around 24 hours — like a mild sunburn. Most clients return to work the next day. Results build over the following weeks as collagen production increases. The full price is paid at booking, as with all facial treatments.

At £85, microneedling is the most affordable way into skin treatments, and we make sure it is done right. Needle depth and settings are matched to your skin type and concern — not one-size-fits-all. Numbing cream is included, not an extra. Every treatment includes a consultation with no obligation to book on the day. We are fully insured and will tell you honestly if a different treatment would serve your skin better.
