Microneedling
Transform Your Skin with Microneedling at Leicester's Top Skin Clinic
We all have those skin concerns that affect our confidence, whether it’s fine lines around the eyes, a dull complexion, acne scars, or stretch marks. These issues can be addressed safely and effectively with microneedling - a treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin with minimal discomfort, little downtime, and natural-looking results.
At City Laser & Skin Clinic in Leicester, we use the award-winning EDS Dermastamp Microneedling system to help you achieve visibly smoother, firmer, and healthier-looking skin. Microneedling helps form new collagen and regenerate new skin cells to enhance the deeper level of the skin.

How Does Microneedling Work?
The skin is made up of three layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. By creating controlled micro-injuries in the epidermis using ultra-fine needles, microneedling stimulates the body’s natural collagen production and self-repair processes. This leads to:
- The production of new collagen and elastin, improving skin firmness and elasticity.
- Accelerated skin cell turnover, resulting in a refreshed, youthful glow.
- Increased skin thickness and resilience, reducing the appearance of scars and fine lines.
- Enhanced absorption of skincare products, boosting their effectiveness.
A few days after the treatment, the skin begins its natural regeneration process, and over the following weeks and months, the skin progressively improves in tone, texture, and tightness.

Microneedling FAQs
How Many Microneedling Treatments Will I Need?
«Results can be seen after just one session, but for optimal results, a course of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended.
Is Microneedling Safe?
«Yes, microneedling is a clinically proven treatment with a high safety profile. Our practitioners are fully trained and experienced in delivering safe and effective treatments.
Is There Any Downtime With Microneedling?
«There is minimal downtime. Your skin may appear red or feel sensitive for up to 48 hours, but you can resume most normal activities immediately if you are happy to do so.
Is Microneedling Effective On All Skin Tones?
«Yes, microneedling is safe and effective for all skin types and tones.
Does Microneedling Hurt?
«Before your treatment is started your skin will be numbed with topical anesthetic, so you will remain comfortable throughout. After a couple of hours the anesthetic will wear of and you can still expect to remain comfortable.
When Will I See Results From Microneedling?
«You may notice an immediate improvement in skin texture, with further improvements appearing over the following weeks as collagen production increases.
How Long Does The Treatment Take?
«The actual treatment takes 20 minutes depending on the area to be treated – overall your appointment is likely to last just one hour.
How Do I Prepare For Microneedling?
«When having EDS microneedling, the areas to be treated must be free of perfume and make up. You must thoroughly cleanse any oils, creams and heavy make up from the treatment area.
After your treatment, you will be given a soothing gel to use until the redness subsides. Your aftercare programme will contain everything to enhance the results of your treatments. It is also very important to use sun protection every morning to further protect your skin.
