Microneedling, Moneyslane

If you are looking into microneedling around Moneyslane, the first thing worth knowing is that NUA is a private nurse-led studio rather than a salon or a high street chain.

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.

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

Serving Moneyslane and the surrounding area

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

Microneedling questions, answered for Moneyslane

Will it help with acne scarring?

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.

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 Moneyslane clients.

When will I see results?

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.

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.

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.

Where exactly is the clinic if I am travelling from Moneyslane?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

What if microneedling is not right for me?

Then Lauren will say so at the consultation and talk through what would suit your skin better. Being told no is a reasonable outcome of an honest assessment, and it happens regularly.
