At The Skin Nurse in Teddington, I help women over 30 feel confident in their own skin again, without harsh treatments or heavy downtime.
One of the most effective and natural ways to refresh your complexion is microneedling a treatment that harnesses your body’s own healing power to smooth, firm and brighten your skin. And it’s been around for years, and still one of the best!
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) uses a pen-like device fitted with ultra-fine needles to create precise micro-channels on the skin’s surface.
These tiny controlled punctures trigger your skin’s repair response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, the very building blocks that keep your skin firm, plump and youthful.
It’s a medically backed technique loved for delivering real, visible results with minimal downtime.
Who is Microneedling for?
I specialise in treatments for clients aged 30 and above, when collagen levels begin to decline and skin renewal naturally slows.
Microneedling is ideal if you’re noticing:
- Dull or uneven tone
- Enlarged pores
- Fine lines or early wrinkles
- Mild acne scarring
- Loss of firmness around the jawline or cheeks
It’s also a great choice if you prefer non-injectable rejuvenation but still want a medical-grade result.
What happens during treatment?
After cleansing and preparing the skin, I glide a sterile microneedling device across the surface, adjusting the needle depth according to the treatment area.
The entire process takes around 45 minutes, and most clients describe the sensation as a light vibration rather than pain.
Afterwards, your skin may appear pink or feel warm similar to mild sun exposure and this settles within 24–48 hours.
Within days, you’ll notice a fresher, smoother texture as new collagen begins to form.
The Results
- Smoother, brighter and more even skin tone
- Refined pores and improved texture
- Gradual tightening and lifting over several weeks
- Long-term improvement in firmness with repeated sessions
We usually recommend a course of three sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, for best results.

Making Microneedling a Powerhouse Treatment
While microneedling alone delivers incredible results, it becomes a next-level skin rejuvenation treatment when combined with regenerative technologies such as Polynucleotides and LED Light Therapy.
- Microneedling + Polynucleotides
Infusing a regenerative DNA-based booster after microneedling accelerates healing and collagen stimulation. The micro-channels allow the product to absorb deeper, helping to firm, brighten and repair the skin at a cellular level. - Microneedling + LED Light Therapy
Finishing with LED reduces inflammation, enhances healing, and supercharges collagen activity. Red light calms redness, while near-infrared penetrates deeper to repair and rejuvenate.
Together, these create our Regenerative Duo — the ultimate combination for long-term skin strength and radiance.

Why clients over 30 love it
Microneedling offers the perfect balance: clinical results with a natural feel.
It helps you rebuild collagen that’s been quietly declining for years, so your skin looks fresher, not altered.
Over time, it also helps skincare products work better by improving absorption.
