Microneedling for Carncastle and County Antrim

Pricing is listed openly on this page and is the same for all clients regardless of where they travel from. There is no separate charge for the consultation and no call-out or travel fee for Carncastle clients.

A topical numbing cream is applied for around twenty minutes beforehand, which makes the treatment very tolerable. Most people describe a light vibrating or scratching sensation rather than pain.

Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Carncastle clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.

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.

Redness for 24 to 48 hours, similar to mild sunburn. Aftercare guidance is given at the appointment, and Lauren is contactable afterwards if anything concerns you.

Substantially. A medical device controls needle depth precisely and uses sterile single-use surgical-grade needles. Home rollers tear the skin rather than creating clean channels, cannot control depth, and carry a real infection risk.

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

Skin looks brighter within about a week, but the real change comes from collagen remodelling, which takes four to six weeks per session and continues improving across the course.

Yes, it is one of the most effective non-surgical options for rolling and boxcar acne scars. Improvement is gradual and usually needs a full course, but the change in scar depth and skin texture can be significant.

Yes. NUA Aesthetic treats clients from across County Antrim, including Carncastle. Treatments are carried out at the private studio in Carryduff, and the address is confirmed when you book.

Not for 24 hours. The micro-channels need time to close, and applying make-up before then risks irritation and infection. Most people book treatments for a day when that is easy to manage.

Not over actively inflamed or pustular areas, as it can spread bacteria. It is excellent for the scarring left behind once acne is under control. Lauren will assess and may suggest treating the acne first.
