Microneedling

Reveal Smoother, More Radiant Skin with Microneedling in Surrey

If you’re looking for a natural way to refresh and rejuvenate your skin, Laserlux has you covered. Microneedling is Surrey’s not-so-secret secret to glowing skin. This gentle procedure taps into your body’s own healing power to help smooth, firm, and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, scarring, and uneven tone. Whether you want to boost your skin’s elasticity or minimize enlarged pores, our microneedling treatments deliver noticeable, lasting results.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling uses tiny needles to create small, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural healing response, encouraging new collagen and elastin production — two key proteins that keep skin firm and youthful. The treatment is minimally invasive and requires minimal downtime; within 48 hours, any redness or swelling typically subsides, leaving your skin refreshed and revitalized.

Microneedling works wonders on common skin concerns like acne scars, stretch marks, dark spots, fine lines, and rough texture. With consistent treatments, your skin will gradually appear smoother, firmer, and noticeably more radiant.

The Magic Behind Microneedling: How It Works

A microneedling session usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour. For the best results, most people commit to 4 to 6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart, but your treatment plan depends on your specific skin goals.

The microneedling procedure doesn’t necessarily hurt, but you may feel a sensation similar to a light scratching. That said, before starting, we apply a numbing cream to make absolutely sure you’re comfortable throughout. Then, using a handheld device with ultra-fine needles, we gently glide over your skin, creating tiny microchannels. These little “injuries” kickstart your body’s natural repair process, boosting collagen and elastin production. The result? Smoother wrinkles, smaller pores, and a noticeable fade in scars and pigmentation.

What Can I Expect Before and After Treatment?

Certain skincare products like retinoids or exfoliants will need to be paused for a few days before and after treatment since they can increase skin sensitivity.

Right after your session, your skin may look a bit red and feel sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually fades within a few days. During healing, your skin might feel tight or slightly flaky — but don’t worry! This is a sign that collagen production is being boosted beneath the surface.

It’s important to keep your skin clean and well-moisturized during the initial healing period and avoid harsh cleaners, makeup, sun exposure, tanning beds, and vigorous exercise for at least 72 hours.

Our Favourite Power Couple: Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling

Individually, both radiofrequency energy and microneedling are highly effective skin care treatments. However, when combined, these two technologies create a powerhouse for skin rejuvenation. Our advanced RF microneedling treatments go deeper by delivering targeted heat beneath the skin’s surface, encouraging even more collagen production and firmer, smoother skin.

This treatment is safe for all skin tones but isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, currently taking or have recently taken Accutane, or have active skin infections or scarring issues.

Microneedling FAQs

Clients in Surrey are obsessed with our microneedling treatments — and we get why.
Here’s everything you’ve been asking about how these skin-reviving treatments work, what to expect, and how to get the best results.

What exactly is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in your skin. These little punctures trigger your body’s natural healing process, giving collagen and elastin production a major boost.

What’s the difference between microneedling and RF microneedling?

Standard microneedling focuses on collagen induction through tiny needle pricks at the depth of the upper layers of the dermis. RF microneedling goes a step further by delivering gentle heat beneath the skin's surface as the needles penetrate. This added energy stimulates even deeper collagen remodelling, making it a great option for tightening and firming the skin.

What skin issues can microneedling help with?

Microneedling is incredibly versatile! It can help fade acne scars, soften fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and tone, reduce the appearance of pores, and even lighten dark spots. RF microneedling adds tightening and lifting benefits, making it perfect for loose or crepey skin.

Does microneedling hurt?

Not really. Most patients describe it as a minor scratching sensation. We apply a topical numbing cream before your treatment to keep things extra comfortable. You might feel a little pressure or warmth with RF microneedling, but most people find the treatment surprisingly tolerable.

How many microneedling sessions will I need?

It all depends on your skin goals. Most people see great results after 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. A few extra sessions may be recommended for deeper concerns like acne scarring or stretch marks.

Is there any downtime after microneedling?

Good news! There is minimal downtime. Your skin may look a little red and feel sensitive for 1–3 days after treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. Some people experience slight flaking or tightness during the healing process. Just keep things gentle and moisturized.

When will I start seeing results after microneedling?

Some people notice a glow within a few days, but the real magic happens over time. Collagen production kicks in gradually, so expect to see the best results after a few weeks and even more improvements over the next couple of months.

Can I wear makeup after microneedling?

You’ll want to give your skin a breather after your treatment. It’s best to avoid makeup for at least 24–48 hours to allow your skin to heal and minimize the risk of irritation or infection.

Are there any side effects to microneedling?

Mild redness, sensitivity, and temporary dryness or flaking are normal. Serious side effects are rare when treatment is performed by experienced professionals and proper aftercare is followed.

Is RF microneedling safe for darker skin tones?

Yes! Unlike some laser treatments, RF microneedling is considered safe for all skin types and tones. Since it works below the skin's surface, the risk of pigmentation changes is very low.

How long do microneedling results last?

Results can last several months, especially with a full treatment plan and a good at-home skincare routine. Because collagen breaks down naturally over time, maintenance treatments every few months can help keep your glow going strong.
