Glenone, County Antrim
Microneedling, Glenone
People travel to NUA Aesthetic from Glenone for microneedling because the clinic is deliberately small. One nurse, one room, and appointments that are not stacked back to back.
The treatment itself: controlled micro-channels created with an FDA-cleared medical device, triggering a natural healing response that rebuilds collagen and refines texture. What that means in practice is discussed at your consultation, in plain terms.
Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Glenone clients often book alongside neighbours from Moneyglass and Knockcloghrim, and parking is straightforward.
A nurse-led approach
Treatments are carried out in a private home studio rather than a clinic floor, which most Glenone clients say is the part they did not expect to value. There is no reception, no overlap with other appointments, and no rush at the end.
What Microneedling involves
Consultation and prep
Skin is assessed and cleansed, and a topical numbing cream is applied for around twenty minutes before treatment begins.
Treatment
The 1NEEDPRO is passed across the treatment area at a depth chosen for each zone. The treatment itself takes around thirty minutes.
The course
Three treatments spaced four weeks apart. Collagen remodelling is a slow process, so results continue building between sessions.
Maintenance
Most people maintain with a single session every four to six months once the initial course is complete.
Who it suits
- Uneven skin texture and roughness
- Acne scarring and post-inflammatory marking
- Enlarged or congested pores
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
- Sun damage and uneven tone
- Stretch marks on the body
Microneedling in Glenone: common questions
How much does microneedling cost?
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 Glenone clients.
Do I need a consultation before microneedling?
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.
What are the appointment times like?
NUA runs by appointment only with flexible scheduling, including times outside standard working hours. That tends to suit clients travelling from Glenone who would rather not take time off work.
Is microneedling safe for all skin types?
Yes, microneedling is generally safe across all skin types when performed with professional equipment. NUA uses the FDA-approved 1NEEDPRO device with surgical-grade needles and a patented anti-contamination system.
Is there downtime and how long do results last?
Downtime is minimal. Expect redness for 24 to 48 hours, similar to mild sunburn. Results build gradually over several weeks as collagen remodels, and last several months with maintenance every four to six months.
Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?
Yes. It combines excellently with polynucleotides, skin boosters, chemical peels and medical-grade skincare. Adding Calecim exosomes during the treatment amplifies the regenerative response considerably.
Does microneedling hurt?
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.
Can it be used on areas other than the face?
Yes. The neck, decolletage and stretch marks on the body all respond well. Treatment area is agreed at consultation.
Who will carry out my treatment?
Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Glenone clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.
Is there any downtime?
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.
Is there parking available?
Yes, parking is straightforward at the studio, which is one of the practical advantages over a town centre clinic for anyone driving in from Glenone.
