Microneedling

Microneedling
What is Microneedling?

A controlled treatment that rebuilds the skin from within.

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses very fine sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. These precise micro-injuries prompt the body’s natural repair response, stimulating fresh collagen and elastin. Over the following weeks, texture refines, pores look smaller and scars soften.

At DROM, each microneedling treatment is calibrated to your skin. We assess your concern, skin type and needle depth before the first pass, then adjust across the face so every area is treated to its own need rather than a fixed setting.

What We Use

Sterile fine-needle collagen induction therapy.

We use a medical-grade automated microneedling pen with single-use sterile cartridges and an adjustable depth of up to 2.5mm. Where greater tightening is the aim, radiofrequency microneedling may be recommended instead, adding controlled heat to the channels. The right device and depth are agreed in consultation, based on your skin and your goals.

Benefits

Why patients choose this

A measured treatment, with results that build steadily over time.

Refines texture

Smooths rough, uneven skin as new collagen settles into the surface.

Softens scars

Helps reduce the depth and visibility of acne and other facial scarring.

Minimises pores

Firms the tissue around each pore so openings appear tighter and smaller.

Stimulates collagen

Encourages your own collagen and elastin production from within the skin.

Brightens tone

Supports a clearer, more even and luminous complexion over time.

Minimal downtime

Mild redness, much like light sunburn, that usually settles within a day or two.

Builds with sessions

Results deepen across a course of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.

Depth-led approach

Calibrated to your skin and concern, rather than a single fixed protocol.

Process

How the treatment works

Six steps, from consultation to the first signs of results.

Consultation

Your skin type, concerns and goals are assessed in person, and depth is agreed.

Cleansing

The skin is thoroughly cleansed to prepare the treatment area.

Numbing

A topical anaesthetic is applied and left to take effect for your comfort.

Treatment

The pen passes over the skin, creating controlled micro-channels. Brief and tolerable.

Soothing

A calming serum is applied to support recovery, and written aftercare is provided.

First results

An initial glow appears within days, and collagen remodelling continues over the weeks that follow.

Expected Results

What the results look like.

  • A fresher, brighter complexion within the first week.
  • Smoother, more refined skin texture over two to four weeks.
  • Softened scarring and a more even surface with each session.
  • Pores that appear visibly tighter and less prominent.
  • Best results from a course of three to six sessions, four to six weeks apart.
Aftercare & Recovery

The first 72 hours.

  • Expect mild redness, like light sunburn, that settles within a day or two.
  • Use only the gentle products provided, with cool water and a mild cleanser.
  • Avoid make-up for the first 24 to 48 hours while the skin recovers.
  • Avoid exercise, sweating, saunas and steam rooms for three to seven days.
  • Avoid retinoids and exfoliants for a week, and protect the skin with daily SPF 30 or above.
