If you’ve found yourself searching “microneedling near me” and you’re based in Canary Wharf — congratulations, you’ve landed in the right place. I say that not just as a practitioner, but as someone who has personally experienced how transformative this treatment can be.

Microneedling is one of the most effective ways to rejuvenate your skin naturally, and it’s a treatment I’m genuinely passionate about offering here at Wharf Aesthetics.

Let me explain why, and also what you can expect if you decide to try it for yourself.

My Personal Journey with Microneedling

My personal love for microneedling started with my own skin story.

For years, I struggled with cystic acne, starting in my early teenage years, running right into my 30's. Eventually, I took the plunge and went on Accutane (also known as isotretinoin), which finally cleared my acne. But what it left behind were deep scars, uneven texture, and pigmentation, daily reminders of what my skin had been through.

I tried literally everything: serums, peels, facials. Unfortunately, nothing delivered visible, lasting results. Then I discovered microneedling.

After just a couple of sessions, I saw dramatic improvements. The texture and tone of my skin smoothed out, the scars began to fade, and with that, my confidence returned.

That experience is what inspired me to train in advanced aesthetics and offer microneedling at Wharf Aesthetics. I understand, first-hand, how much difference clear, healthy-looking skin can make, and I want every client to experience that same transformation.

What Is Microneedling (and how does it work)?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a non-surgical treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural healing process.

It involves using fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These tiny punctures trigger the body to produce new collagen and elastin — the building blocks of smooth, firm, youthful skin.

The result? A fresher, more even complexion with long-term improvement in texture and tone.

Microneedling is ideal for treating:

Acne scars and pigmentation
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven texture and enlarged pores
Dull or tired-looking skin
Stretch marks and minor scarring

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment

When you come to Wharf Aesthetics, your comfort and safety come first.

Here’s what a typical microneedling session looks like:

1️⃣ Consultation: We start with a detailed, free consultation to assess your skin, goals, and suitability for treatment.

2️⃣ Preparation: Your skin will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream will be applied to minimise any discomfort.

3️⃣ Treatment: Using a high-quality medical-grade device, I’ll gently glide the microneedling pen across the skin. The process takes around 30–45 minutes, depending on the area treated.

4️⃣ Aftercare: You may experience some redness or sensitivity for 24–48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Most clients notice visible glow and smoother texture within a few days, with full results building gradually over the following weeks.

Real Results You Can Expect

Most clients begin noticing improvements after their first 1–2 sessions, with the best results seen after a short course of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.

Your skin will look brighter, feel smoother, and gradually appear firmer as collagen continues to rebuild. For acne scarring or deeper concerns, we can tailor a treatment plan to maximise your results safely and effectively.

Because I use medical-grade microneedling devices, in line with my healthcare professional background, every treatment is delivered with precision, hygiene, and care.
