FAQs
How do I know if this treatment is right for me?
We assess your skin and goals in-clinic before we begin. If something isn’t the best fit, we’ll suggest safer or more effective alternatives for your skin at this time of year.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort is minimal and short-lived. Needling feels like a warm, scratchy sensation; peels feel tingly; LED is gently warm and relaxing. We can tailor intensity to keep you comfortable.
How many sessions will I need?
You’ll see glow from one session, but best results come with a series. Most plans are 3–6 treatments, spaced 2–4 weeks apart, depending on your skin and the treatment type.
What’s the downtime?
Needling: 1–3 days of pinkness/dryness. Enzyme/dermaceutical peels: light flaking for 2–4 days. LED: no downtime. We’ll give you aftercare and what to expect before you leave.
What aftercare do I follow?
Keep it simple and hydrating; avoid active exfoliants for 3–5 days pre- and post-treatment. SPF 30+ daily. Skip heat, heavy exercise and saunas for 24 hours. LED within 48 hours is a great add-on to calm and speed recovery.
Who is this not suitable for?
Active infection, open lesions, recent isotretinoin, and pregnancy are not suitable for needling or medium peels. Photosensitising medication and epilepsy can limit LED. We’ll check all of this with you in consultation.
Can I combine treatments?
Yes—LED pairs beautifully with needling, peels and facials to reduce redness and support repair. We’ll advise the best order and spacing for your plan.
When will I see results?
You’ll notice immediate glow and smoothness. Collagen-related changes (texture, firmness and scars) improve steadily over 4–12 weeks with a consistent series and home care.
Do I need a patch test?
For tinting and some wax areas we recommend a patch test at least 24–48 hours prior, especially if you’re new or sensitive. Ask us when you book.
How should I prepare?
Arrive with clean skin. Avoid active exfoliants/retinoids for 48 hours pre-appointment. For lash/brow tinting, skip mascara and oil around the eye area on the day.
