Listooder, County Down

Microneedling, Listooder

Listooder sits within easy reach of the NUA studio in Carryduff, which is where microneedling appointments for County Down clients are carried out.

In short: controlled micro-channels created with an FDA-cleared medical device, triggering a natural healing response that rebuilds collagen and refines texture. Lauren will tell you if it is not the right treatment for you, which happens more often than you might expect.

NUA operates by appointment only from a private studio in Carryduff. For Listooder clients that means a calm, discreet setting rather than a busy clinic, and an address shared on confirmation.

What to expect as a Listooder client

Treatments are carried out in a private home studio rather than a clinic floor, which most Listooder 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

  1. Consultation and prep

    Skin is assessed and cleansed, and a topical numbing cream is applied for around twenty minutes before treatment begins.

  2. Treatment

    The 1NEEDPRO is passed across the treatment area at a depth chosen for each zone. The treatment itself takes around thirty minutes.

  3. The course

    Three treatments spaced four weeks apart. Collagen remodelling is a slow process, so results continue building between sessions.

  4. 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

What Listooder clients want to know about microneedling

How many treatments will I need?

Most people benefit from a course of three treatments spaced about four weeks apart, depending on skin concerns and goals. Lauren will recommend a personalised plan at your consultation.

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 Listooder.

Is microneedling suitable if I have active acne?

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.

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.

What exactly does microneedling do?

It creates tiny controlled micro-injuries in the skin using the FDA-cleared 1NEEDPRO device. This triggers your body's natural healing response, stimulating collagen production, improving texture, boosting hydration and enhancing overall skin quality.

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 Listooder who would rather not take time off work.

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 Listooder clients.

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 Listooder clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.

Can I wear make-up afterwards?

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.
