Nurse-led microneedling with exosomes in Drumlough

Results build over weeks and last several months with maintenance. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.

Stop retinoids and acids five days beforehand, avoid sun exposure and fake tan, and skip alcohol the night before. Come with clean skin and no make-up.

Three treatments spaced four weeks apart, then maintenance. As with all collagen-stimulating treatments, the course delivers the result rather than any single session.

Exosomes are cellular messengers that carry growth factors and proteins between cells. Calecim Professional Exosomes use PTT-6 technology to deliver over 3,000 growth factors into the deep dermis, triggering a substantially stronger regeneration response than microneedling on its own.

Often yes. The anti-inflammatory action of the exosomes tends to make it more comfortable for reactive skin than microneedling alone, though suitability is always assessed individually.

Booking is through the online system, where you can pick a consultation or treatment slot that suits you. Lauren confirms the appointment and sends the studio address. You can also call or message if you would rather talk it through first.

The studio is in Carryduff, County Down. It is a private home studio rather than a high street clinic, so the full address is sent on booking confirmation along with parking guidance.

NUA runs by appointment only with flexible scheduling, including times outside standard working hours. That tends to suit clients travelling from Drumlough who would rather not take time off work.

Yes. Every treatment includes a consultation so Lauren can assess your skin and confirm the plan is right for you. It is included in the appointment rather than charged separately.

Yes. Calecim Professional is an established medical-grade product with a documented ethical sourcing process, which is one of the reasons NUA uses it rather than a cheaper alternative.

Shorter than microneedling alone. Redness often settles within 24 hours. Aftercare guidance is given at the appointment, and Lauren is contactable afterwards if anything concerns you.
