Our reputation is built around providing a fantastic experience for our patients – here’s what some of them have been saying about us…
I visited Dr Fiona recently for some general skincare advice and a series of chemical peels. Fiona fully explained the benefits of the treatment and the important aftercare advice. We had a in-depth discussion about my current skincare regime and Fiona was able to suggest a couple of products that might help my main issues which was redness. I have been totally delighted with the Obagi products and the results. This is the longest I’ve managed to stick to a skincare routine. I would highly recommend Fiona.
Having had various treatments by Dr Fiona (from anti wrinkle injections, lip enhancement and a wide range of Obagi skincare products) I won’t ever need to go anywhere else! Great at carrying out each and every one of her techniques, Fiona is very knowledgeable, happy to answer any questions you may have and lastly a lovely manor to go along with it.
I can’t recommend Fiona highly enough! She is a miracle worker! 🙂 Fiona immediately put me at ease. She is super knowledgeable, has a lovely calm manner and really listened when I said I wanted to look natural. She also recommended ZO skin health products which I have been using ever since and my skin has never looked better. I use the anti-ageing programme and the smart tone broad spectrum SPF 50. If you’re looking for anti-ageing advice you should definitely try Fiona! You won’t go anywhere else!
Micro-needling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses tiny, controlled needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, promoting skin repair and rejuvenation.
Micro-needling is effective for a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, stretch marks, pigmentation and overall skin texture.
Most patients describe micro-needling as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. A topical anaesthetic is usually applied beforehand to minimise any discomfort during the treatment.
The number of sessions required depends on your skin concerns and goals. For optimal results, 3 sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart are typically recommended.
Or as a one-off treatment.
Many people notice an improvement in skin texture and tone after the first treatment, but the full benefits, such as collagen production and scar reduction, develop over several weeks as the skin heals and regenerates.
It’s important to avoid direct sunlight, intense exercise, and harsh skincare products for at least 24-48 hours after treatment. Refrain from applying makeup during this time to allow your skin to heal.
Side effects are typically mild and include redness, slight swelling, and sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects usually subside within 24-48 hours.
Yes, micro-needling is generally safe for all skin types and tones. However, it may not be suitable for individuals with active skin infections, severe acne, or certain medical conditions. A consultation with a specialist will determine if it’s right for you.
Yes, micro-needling can be combined with other treatments like chemical peels or serums to enhance results. Your practitioner can recommend the best combination for your skin goals.
The cost of micro-needling varies depending on the clinic, the area being treated, and the number of sessions required. Prices typically start at around £200 per session, with an additional area of £50 per area, but package deals may be available for multiple treatments.
