Microneedling in South London – Streatham & Sydenham Clinics
Microneedling in Streatham and Sydenham is a safe and effective treatment for a wide range of skin concerns, including ageing (fine lines and wrinkles), sun damage, pigmentation, acne scarring and stretch marks. At our South London Aesthetic Clinics, we use a precision hand-held device with surgical needles to create thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin, stimulating natural repair and renewal from the inside out.
This process encourages your skin’s own collagen and elastin production without causing visible damage. Different needle depths can be selected depending on the area and indication, ensuring a fully tailored treatment. With regular sessions, Microneedling in South London can help thicken the skin, smooth scars of all sizes, reduce pigmentation, and minimise fine lines and wrinkles for a refreshed, youthful appearance.
