Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a microneedling pen or dermapen to create controlled microchannels in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, increasing collagen and elastin production and enhancing the penetration of active serums.
The result is smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin with minimal downtime. At The Blackwell Clinic, our clinicians use only medical-grade devices and Mesoestetic serums for safe, professional results.
Our microneedling facial treatments combine precision needling with targeted serums to refresh dull, uneven or ageing skin. Whether you’re struggling with pigmentation, acne scars or fine lines, our approach promotes visible renewal from the inside out.
Microneedling benefits for skin include:
For patients concerned about uneven tone, we may recommend the C.PROF 210 Depigmentation Solution or X.PROF 151 Glutathione Pack, which brighten the skin while protecting it from oxidative stress.
Microneedling for pigmentation and acne scars helps even out skin tone while stimulating regeneration. It’s safe for all skin tones and highly effective for conditions like melasma, photoageing, and mild laxity. By pairing microneedling with depigmenting serums or vitamin C boosters, we accelerate cell renewal for a clearer, more balanced complexion.
We also offer a fantastic range of serums alongside our microneedling treatments including specially formulated serums with exosomes. We a range of ingredients including NAD+, polynucleotides, exosomes, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, tranexamic acid, vitamin C, PDRN and more. Alongside nano microneedling for patients seeking enhanced collagen stimulation or minimal-downtime options.
At The Blackwell Clinic, every treatment is enhanced using professional pharmaceutical grade formulations designed to address specific skin and scalp concerns. These are not generic microneedling serums; they are medical – grade solutions used in professional aesthetic medicine.
Hair microneedling, sometimes called microneedling for hair growth, uses fine needles to stimulate the scalp, increase circulation, and activate dormant follicles. By pairing the procedure with C.PROF 230 Hair Loss Solution (copper peptides and vitamin B complex) or C.PROF 231 Dutexome (exosomes and dutasteride), we deliver nutrients directly where they’re needed most.

During a session, your clinician can apply numbing cream for comfort. The microneedling pen or dermapen glides across the treatment area, creating precise micro-injuries while infusing selected serums into the deeper layers of the skin.
