Microneedling is a popular skin treatment that supports the skin’s natural repair process, helping to improve texture, tone and overall skin quality over time. Treatments are carried out following a full skin consultation to ensure safety and suitability tailored to your skin.

What is microneedling with mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy with microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that combines two techniques: microneedling and the topical application of targeted serums. Microneedling uses very fine needles to create micro-channels in the skin, which helps stimulate the skin’s natural renewal process and enhances the absorption of active ingredients applied during the treatment.
As the skin repairs itself, it can produce new collagen and elastin — both essential for maintaining firm, smooth and healthy-looking skin.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling encourages cell turnover and collagen production, helping the skin to renew itself from within.
Over time, this can help to:
- Improve skin texture
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines
- Improve uneven skin tone
- Minimise the appearance of pores
- Support clearer, brighter-looking skin
Results develop gradually and vary between individuals.
What Can Microneedling Help With?
Following consultation, microneedling may be suitable for concerns such as:
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
- Acne scarring
- Uneven skin texture
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Enlarged pores
All microneedling treatments begin with a skin consultation, where we will discuss:
- Your skin concerns and goals
- Your medical history
- Your current skincare routine
- Suitability for microneedling
- Aftercare and expected recovery
At Tweed Aesthetics, microneedling is carried out using professional-grade equipment and strict hygiene protocols. Treatments are never rushed, and advice is always honest and personalised.
Is microneedling painful?
Most people describe microneedling as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. Sensations vary depending on the area treated and individual sensitivity. Your comfort will be monitored throughout the treatment and numbing cream can be used.
How long does it take to recover?
After treatment, the skin may appear red and feel warm, similar to mild sunburn. This usually settles within 24–48 hours. Some people may also experience slight dryness or flaking as the skin heals.
How many microneedling treatments will I need?
Some improvement may be noticed after one session, but a course of treatments is often recommended for best results. This will be discussed during your consultation.
When will I see results?
Skin improvements develop gradually as collagen production increases. Results are not instant and will continue to improve over the weeks following treatment.
Is microneedling safe?
When performed by a trained professional and following appropriate aftercare, microneedling is considered safe for suitable candidates. As with any skin treatment, potential risks and side effects will be discussed during your consultation.
Can I wear makeup after microneedling?
You’ll be advised when it is safe to apply makeup, depending on your skin and the treatment performed. This is usually after the initial healing period.
