Microneedling at Silk & Dew Clinic
At Silk & Dew Clinic, we offer microneedling in Welwyn Garden City, a highly effective treatment for rejuvenating the skin, reducing acne scars, and stimulating collagen production. Our microneedling procedure can improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity, giving you smoother, younger-looking skin without invasive surgery.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These controlled punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing response, encouraging collagen and elastin production, which improves the skin’s overall appearance and texture.
This treatment is highly effective for a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scarring, and uneven skin texture. It’s suitable for most skin types and requires minimal downtime.
Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles
By stimulating collagen production, microneedling smooths out fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a more youthful appearance.
Improves Skin Texture & Tone
The treatment helps refine skin texture, leaving it smoother and more even, and can help reduce the appearance of pores.
Treats Acne Scarring
Collagen induction therapy is highly effective for reducing acne scars by stimulating the production of new, healthy skin.D14
Minimizes Hyperpigmentation
Collagen induction therapy can help even out skin tone and reduce discolouration caused by sun damage or acne.
Non-Invasive & Safe
This procedure is a non-surgical option for those looking to improve their skin without the risks or downtime associated with more invasive treatments.
How Does Microneedling Work?
During a microneedling procedure, a specialised device is used to create thousands of tiny, controlled punctures in the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production, which results in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
At Silk & Dew Clinic, we use advanced microneedling devices to ensure precision and comfort during the procedure. The treatment is performed by our trained professionals, ensuring your safety and optimal results.

Collagen induction therapy is also effective for treating signs of aging and improving skin texture on the neck.

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment
When you come in for your skin rejuvenation or pigmentation treatment, here’s what you can expect:
Consultation
Before your microneedling treatment, our specialist will evaluate your skin and discuss your concerns to ensure the treatment is tailored to your needs.
Treatment
The procedure itself typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. A numbing cream is applied beforehand to ensure your comfort during the procedure. You may feel slight vibrations or a mild sensation, but the treatment is generally well tolerated.
Aftercare
After your session, you may experience some redness or mild swelling, similar to a light sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few hours to a day. Most clients can return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment.

How Many Microneedling Sessions Do I Need?
For optimal results, we recommend a series of microneedling treatments, typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The number of treatments will depend on your specific skin concerns and desired outcomes. Many clients begin to see noticeable improvement after just one session, but a series of treatments provides the best results for deeper skin concerns such as acne scars or significant fine lines.
