Microneedling

Microneedling is one of the most versatile treatments for people who want to improve skin texture rather than change the shape of their face.

The treatment uses a professional microneedling device to create controlled microscopic channels within the skin.

These controlled micro-injuries trigger the skin’s natural repair response and support collagen remodelling over time.

This makes microneedling particularly useful for concerns such as acne scarring, uneven texture, enlarged-looking pores, fine lines and general loss of skin quality. Esteem also includes microneedling within its acne/scarring, anti-ageing and stretch-mark treatment pathways.

But depth and intensity matter.

Nanda does not simply set a device to one depth and treat every face identically.

She assesses your skin thickness, sensitivity, scarring, pigmentation risk, active breakouts, previous treatments and overall skin condition before deciding how the treatment should be performed.

With more than 25 years of experience across aesthetics and beauty, her aim is controlled skin renewal rather than unnecessarily aggressive treatment.

For clients searching for microneedling in Glasgow, acne scar treatment, collagen induction therapy, treatment for enlarged pores or skin-texture treatment, the focus is progressive improvement while protecting the integrity of the skin.

A professional microneedling device contains multiple very fine sterile needles.

As the device moves across the treatment area, these needles create controlled microscopic channels within the skin.

The body responds to this controlled injury through its natural wound-healing process.

Over the following weeks, this repair response can support collagen remodelling and gradual improvement in the appearance of skin texture and scarring.

The depth used is adjusted according to the area being treated.

Delicate areas do not require the same depth as deeper acne scars.

This is why Nanda’s assessment matters.

More aggressive treatment is not automatically better treatment.

The objective is to create enough controlled stimulation to encourage renewal while avoiding unnecessary trauma to the skin.

Microneedling may be appropriate if you are concerned about:

• Acne scarring
• Uneven skin texture
• Enlarged-looking pores
• Fine lines
• Early signs of skin ageing
• Rough skin
• Loss of radiance
• Selected pigmentation concerns
• General skin-quality improvement
• Stretch marks where an appropriate body protocol is being used

However, active inflammatory acne is different from acne scarring.

Microneedling over inappropriate active lesions may not be recommended, so Nanda will establish whether the priority should first be controlling active breakouts or treating the scarring left behind.

This distinction is important.

Clients with certain skin conditions, active infection, impaired healing, particular medications or recent aesthetic procedures may also need to delay treatment.

Your medical history, current skincare and previous procedures will therefore be reviewed before treatment.
