Nish Clinic Aesthetics & Laser Clinic Southend on Sea
Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine needles to create thousands of micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These controlled punctures trigger your body’s natural healing response, increasing collagen and elastin production and resulting in firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin.
Using professional-grade devices, we tailor the treatment intensity and needle depth to suit your skin type and concerns. A topical numbing cream ensures comfort, while our trained practitioners carefully perform the treatment to stimulate natural regeneration. Our microneedling clients across Southend and Essex consistently report noticeable improvements in skin appearance.
Microneedling is effective for:
It also boosts the absorption of topical skincare products post-treatment, enhancing their effectiveness.
A typical session takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the area. After cleansing and numbing, the microneedling device is gently moved over your skin. Most clients describe the sensation as slightly uncomfortable but manageable. A soothing serum or mask may be applied afterwards to calm and nourish the skin.
Common side effects include mild redness, swelling, and sensitivity – similar to sunburn – which usually subside within 24–48 hours. We’ll provide detailed aftercare guidance during your consultation to help you maximise results and minimise downtime.
You may notice a fresh glow a few days after your first session, but the most visible improvements appear in the following weeks and months as collagen production increases. A course of 3–6 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, is typically recommended for optimal results.
