Microneedling
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as skin needling or collagen induction therapy, is a treatment used for many different skin concerns such as:
- Acne scarring
- Anti ageing
- Skin rejuvenation
- Enlarged pores
- Stretch marks and
- Pigmentation.
Very fine short needles are used to cause a controlled trauma to the skin to encourage the skins cells to renew and the tiny punctures made to heal. As your skin starts to repair your collagen and elastin is stimulated which promotes youthful, smoother, brighter and firmer skin.

I was sick of constantly shaving so I decided it was time for laser hair removal. After lots of research I finally chose to go with Birmingham Private Clinic. The whole experience was fantastic, I was quite apprehensive as this was my first time having laser, but as soon as I got there I was made to feel perfectly at ease. All the staff where professional & friendly throughout. I am over the moon with the results! Thank you!

Amazing experience from start to finish. Melissa was very helpful and informative in the initial consultation and excellent in the HydraFacial. Facilities were also amazing, felt like I was in a super high end clinic on Harley Street! Can’t wait to come back for my second procedure.

I went to BPC today for my second tattoo removal session with Melissa. My tattoo is already disappearing and I’m so happy with the results already and Melissa is so professional and makes me feel very comfortable.

After learning of the benefits of a skin peel, I was so eager to try one hoping it would reduce my congestion and oily complexion and give me a brighter, more even skin tone. My results were fantastic even after one treatment. For the first time in 3 years I feel confident enough to go out without some sort of foundation coverage. Thank you so much, I can’t wait to come back for more!
