Microneedling in
Berwick-upon-Tweed
A considered approach to microneedling, built around your skin and the concerns you want to discuss.
Refined Skin & Aesthetics provides microneedling consultations and treatments from THIRTYFIVE on Castlegate in Berwick-upon-Tweed, welcoming clients from across North Northumberland and the Scottish Borders.
Understand the treatment before you decide.
Microneedling involves the controlled use of fine needles to create small punctures in the skin.
Microneedling is a cosmetic skin procedure designed to create controlled micro-injuries within the treated skin and encourage a natural wound-healing response.
People consider microneedling for different reasons. The first step at Refined is understanding your skin, what you have noticed and what you are hoping to address.
It is not a one-treatment-fits-all approach. Skin condition, relevant history, expectations and the area being considered all need to form part of the discussion.
Suitability, realistic expectations, possible side effects, relevant risks and aftercare should be understood before treatment takes place.
What would you like to discuss?
You do not need to diagnose your own skin or arrive knowing exactly what treatment you need. Start by explaining what you have noticed. Suitability and appropriate options can then be considered individually.
Skin Texture
Discuss changes or irregularities in skin texture and whether microneedling may be appropriate to consider.
Visible Scarring
Microneedling may be discussed where the appearance and texture of suitable scars is a concern.
Skin Appearance
Talk through changes in the appearance of your skin and what you are hoping to achieve before treatment is considered.
Your Goals
Your expectations matter. The consultation should establish what you want from treatment and what can realistically be discussed.
Your skin should not be treated like everybody else's.
Microneedling should begin with understanding the individual, not simply selecting a treatment because it is popular.
At Refined, the discussion starts with your skin, the concern that brought you in and what you are hoping to achieve.
- Personal Your consultation begins with your own concerns and expectations.
- Considered Suitability is considered before deciding whether treatment should proceed.
- Informed Treatment information, limitations, risks and aftercare form part of the conversation.
- Local Appointments are available from THIRTYFIVE in central Berwick-upon-Tweed.
Good skin treatment starts by understanding the skin in front of you, not following a generic treatment plan.
How does microneedling work?
This is a general explanation of microneedling rather than an individual treatment recommendation. The approach appropriate for you should be discussed during consultation.
Controlled Needling
Fine needles are used to create controlled micro-injuries within the area of skin being treated.
Skin Response
The controlled injury is intended to encourage the skin's natural wound-healing response.
Individual Response
Skin responds differently between individuals. No particular cosmetic outcome should be assumed or guaranteed.
What to expect
Every client and treatment is different. The following is a general overview and does not replace your own consultation.
Consultation
Discuss your skin, your concerns, expectations and information relevant to the treatment being considered.
Suitability
Whether microneedling may be appropriate for you can then be considered before a treatment decision is made.
Treatment & Aftercare
If treatment proceeds, relevant aftercare information will be provided so you understand what to expect afterwards.
What may happen afterwards?
Microneedling intentionally creates controlled punctures within the skin, so some temporary reaction following treatment can occur.
The treated skin may appear red and can feel warm, sensitive or tight afterwards. Some people may also experience temporary swelling, dryness or flaking.
Individual responses and recovery vary. Your own aftercare instructions should therefore be followed rather than relying on general advice found online.
Microneedling should not be advertised or understood as a treatment with guaranteed results, no risk or no recovery. Your individual response cannot be predicted with certainty.
Cosmetic skin treatment deserves proper consideration.
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that deliberately punctures the skin and is not completely without risk.
Possible effects and complications can include discomfort, redness, bleeding, irritation, changes in pigmentation and infection. The risks relevant to your individual treatment should be discussed before proceeding.
Treatment is not suitable for everyone. Relevant history, skin condition, individual circumstances and the proposed treatment all need to be considered.
Outcomes vary between individuals and a particular result cannot be guaranteed.
A consultation is an important part of deciding whether microneedling is an appropriate treatment for you.

Frequently asked questions
What is microneedling?
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. The procedure is intended to encourage the skin's natural wound-healing response.
What concerns can I discuss at a microneedling consultation?
People may ask about microneedling in relation to concerns including skin texture, the appearance of suitable scars and general changes in skin appearance. Whether treatment is appropriate needs to be considered individually.
Can microneedling remove scars?
Microneedling should not be presented as making a scar disappear. Treatment may be discussed in relation to the appearance or texture of suitable scarring, but individual responses vary and an outcome cannot be guaranteed.
Does microneedling hurt?
Some discomfort can occur during or after microneedling. Individual experience varies, so the treatment should not be described as pain-free.
Is there downtime after microneedling?
Skin can appear red and may feel warm, sensitive or tight following treatment. Other temporary reactions may occur and recovery varies between individuals, so microneedling should not be described as having guaranteed no downtime.
