Precision Dermapen microneedling. A medical-grade device creates controlled micro-channels at a consistent depth, so collagen renewal is even and precise across the treatment area.
Microneedling has a reputation as a quick beauty facial. That description sells it short. At Nurse Hannah Clinics, microneedling is a comprehensive regenerative skin treatment — a medically led protocol designed to rebuild the skin’s structure from within, not just brighten it for a weekend.
Hannah is a qualified nurse with over a decade of clinical experience and advanced training in aesthetic medicine. Every treatment is tailored to your skin, delivered to medical standards, and focused on healthy, natural-looking results.
What is regenerative microneedling?
Microneedling uses fine, sterile needles to create tiny channels in the skin’s surface. Those micro-channels trigger your body’s natural repair response — stimulating collagen and elastin, the two proteins that keep skin firm and smooth.
Here’s what makes our approach different. A standard microneedling facial stops at the needling itself. Our protocol pairs precision needling with a full sequence of supporting treatments, each chosen to improve how your skin heals and how well the results hold.
The result is deeper, longer-lasting skin renewal — the kind that addresses texture, tone and firmness rather than surface glow alone.
What your treatment includes
This is a complete regenerative protocol, delivered in one appointment. Each step builds on the last.
Six steps. One appointment. A treatment built to work with your skin’s biology, not against it.
How it works
The science is straightforward. Your skin repairs injury by producing new collagen. Microneedling creates a controlled, minimal injury — just enough to switch that repair process on without the downtime of lasers or aggressive peels.
New collagen means firmer, smoother skin. It softens fine lines, improves acne scarring, refines pores and evens out tone. The supporting steps in our protocol then help that new tissue form well and last.
You’re not covering up tired skin. You’re giving it a reason to rebuild.
Benefits of regenerative microneedling
Suitable for the face, neck and décolletage, and customised to your skin at every appointment.
Advanced Microneedling + Exosome Regeneration
For those who want the deepest level of skin regeneration, this is our premium option.
It follows the same complete protocol above — then adds exosome therapy. Exosomes are tiny messengers released by cells that carry growth factors and signals telling your skin to repair, calm and regenerate. In plain terms, they amplify the healing response microneedling already sets in motion.
Applied through the fresh micro-channels created during needling, exosomes reach exactly where they can do the most work.
Why choose the exosome option?
- Faster recovery. Growth factors calm inflammation and support quicker, smoother healing.
- Stronger results. The regenerative signal is amplified, so collagen renewal is more pronounced.
- Ideal for demanding concerns. A strong choice for advanced ageing, stubborn scarring or skin that needs a meaningful reset.
This is regenerative skin health at its most advanced. Hannah will confirm whether it’s right for you during your consultation.
What to expect during your appointment
Your appointment begins with a proper consultation. Hannah assesses your skin, discusses your goals, and confirms the right protocol for you — no assumptions, no rushing.
Next comes a gentle cleanse and a topical numbing cream, so the treatment stays comfortable. The Dermapen then glides across the skin to create the micro-channels, followed by your tailored skincare, peel, mask, lymphatic massage and LED therapy.
The full protocol takes around 60–90 minutes, depending on the areas treated. Afterwards your skin may look slightly pink — a little like mild sunburn — but this usually settles within 24 to 48 hours.
Aftercare and results
Good aftercare protects your investment. For the first 24 hours, skip makeup and strong active skincare, and let your skin heal undisturbed.
After that, two things matter most: hydration and SPF. Daily sun protection guards the new collagen you’ve just worked to build.
You’ll notice early improvements within a few days. Collagen production continues for several weeks, so results build gradually and keep improving. With sensible aftercare and a short course of treatments, they can last several months — and regular sessions maintain long-term skin health.
Why choose Nurse Hannah Clinics?
When it comes to your skin, expertise matters. Hannah isn’t only an aesthetics practitioner — she’s a qualified nurse with over ten years of medical experience and postgraduate qualifications in public health and independent prescribing.
She’s also a member of the Aesthetics Complications Expert Group (ACE), which means patient safety and clinical standards sit at the centre of every treatment. You’ll be assessed properly, treated with medical-grade equipment, and given honest, evidence-based advice.
No hard sell. No unrealistic promises. Just careful, patient-focused care and results that look like healthier skin — because that’s exactly what they are.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a standard microneedling facial?
A standard facial is needling alone. Our protocol combines Precision Dermapen microneedling with tailored skincare, a gentle peel, a recovery mask, lymphatic drainage massage and medical-grade LED therapy — a complete regenerative treatment designed for deeper, longer-lasting results.
How many sessions will I need?
Most people benefit from a short course of 3–6 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart. Hannah will recommend the right plan for your skin during your consultation.
Is microneedling painful?
Most people find microneedling very tolerable, with a light scratching or vibrating sensation during treatment.
Is there any downtime?
Minimal. You may look a little flushed for a day or two, and makeup can usually be worn again after 24 hours.
Can it help with acne scars or pigmentation?
Yes. Microneedling is highly effective for improving acne scarring, texture and uneven tone by stimulating your skin’s own renewal process.
What are exosomes, and do I need them?
Exosomes are natural cell messengers that carry growth factors to encourage repair and regeneration. They amplify your skin’s healing response and suit more demanding concerns. Hannah will advise whether the advanced option is right for you.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on the protocol and areas treated, and whether you choose the exosome option. Book a consultation for an accurate, personalised quote.
