How microneedling works

Microneedling uses a device with fine needles to create tiny, controlled channels in the skin. This triggers your body's natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. Over the following weeks, skin becomes firmer, smoother and more even in tone.

It is one of the most effective treatments for improving skin quality from the inside out rather than just treating the surface.

At Changes Clinic in Portsmouth, treatments are carried out by our qualified nurses. We apply a topical anaesthetic cream beforehand to keep you comfortable throughout.

What microneedling treats

Acne scarring

One of the most requested uses of microneedling. By stimulating collagen in the scar tissue, the skin's surface gradually levels out. A course of sessions typically gives the best results.

Fine lines and skin laxity

As collagen production naturally slows with age, skin loses firmness. Microneedling prompts the skin to produce more, leading to a visible improvement in texture and tightness over several weeks.

Uneven tone and enlarged pores

Repeated treatments improve overall skin quality. Tone becomes more even, pores appear smaller, and the surface looks smoother and more refined.

A treatment that compounds

One session of microneedling produces visible results. A course of three to six sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart, produces significantly more. This is because each treatment builds on the collagen response of the last.

We can combine microneedling with Calecim or other growth-factor serums to enhance the healing response further. RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy for additional skin tightening if that is a priority.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common questions

Is microneedling painful?

We apply a topical numbing cream 30-45 minutes before the treatment, so most clients find it very comfortable. You may feel some pressure and warmth, but significant pain is uncommon.

How much downtime is there?

Your skin will be red for up to 48 hours, similar to mild sunburn. Most people feel comfortable going out the next day. We recommend avoiding make-up for 24 hours and heavy exercise for 48 hours.

How many sessions do I need?

For general skin quality improvement, three sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart is a good starting point. For acne scarring or more significant concerns, six sessions may be recommended. We will advise at your consultation once we have assessed your skin. Clients coming to us for microneedling in Portsmouth typically see the clearest results after a planned course.

Can I combine microneedling with other treatments?

Yes. Microneedling pairs well with dermaplaning as a prep treatment, and with chemical peels or Calecim serums to boost results. We can discuss what combination makes sense for your skin at your free consultation.

Is it suitable for all skin types?

Microneedling is suitable for most skin types. We do not treat active breakouts, certain skin conditions or areas with active infection. We will check your skin thoroughly at your consultation and advise if there are any contraindications.

When will I see results?

Some improvement is visible within a few days as initial redness fades and skin looks more radiant. The deeper collagen response develops over 4-8 weeks, so results continue to improve after each session.
