Frequently Asked Questions
Is microneedling painful?
According to the BAD, with topical anaesthetic applied beforehand, most people find microneedling very tolerable. You will feel vibration and mild scratching sensations. Deeper needle depths used for scarring may cause more sensation, but it is generally described as manageable discomfort rather than pain.
Can microneedling help with acne scars?
Yes. The BAD confirms microneedling is particularly effective for indented (atrophic) acne scars, including ice pick, boxcar, and rolling scars. The collagen stimulation helps fill in depressed scars over multiple treatments. However, it is not recommended for raised (hypertrophic) or keloid scars, which require different treatment approaches.
How is professional microneedling different from dermarollers?
According to JCCP guidance, professional devices use superior needle technology with adjustable depths (0.5–2.5mm) and create more precise, uniform channels through controlled mechanical action. At-home dermarollers have shorter, fixed needles (typically 0.2–0.5mm maximum) and are suitable only for enhancing product absorption, not true collagen induction therapy.
Can I combine microneedling with other treatments?
Yes. The BAD notes microneedling pairs well with PRP (platelet-rich plasma), appropriately licensed hyaluronic acid serums, and LED light therapy. However, the JCCP advises against combining it with chemical peels or laser treatments in the same session due to cumulative trauma.
How much does microneedling cost in Solihull?
The cost of microneedling in Solihull typically ranges from £150 to £400 per session, depending on the treatment area and whether add-ons like PRP are included. Most protocols involve 4–6 sessions. Use our directory to compare verified clinics in Solihull and request transparent pricing.
How long does microneedling last?
According to BAD guidance, true collagen remodelling results from microneedling develop over 4–6 weeks and continue improving for up to 6 months after your final session. Most treatment protocols involve 4–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months help sustain results.
What is the aftercare for microneedling?
The BAD recommends avoiding active skincare ingredients (retinol, AHAs, BHAs) for 48–72 hours after microneedling, and skipping makeup for at least 24 hours. Stay out of direct sunlight and apply SPF diligently. Keep the area clean to prevent infection, and expect redness similar to mild sunburn for 24–72 hours.
What qualifications should my microneedling practitioner have?
The JCCP mandates that microneedling should only be performed by trained professionals using sterile, single-use needle cartridges. Practitioners must be immunised against blood-borne viruses and maintain needlestick injury protocols. In Solihull, verify your practitioner meets these standards and uses reputable devices.
