BIO SPICULES OR MICRONEEDLING WHICH ONE IS RIGHT FOR YOUR SKIN?

Both treatments stimulate the skin’s natural renewal process and can help improve texture, tone, fine lines, congestion, pigmentation and acne scarring, but they work in different ways.

Bio-spicule therapy uses microscopic marine-derived spicules that are massaged into the skin. It is a needle-free treatment, although you may experience a prickly sensation for a few days and some light shedding as the skin renews.

Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-channels at a depth selected for your individual skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin and allows me to target concerns including enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven texture and acne scarring.

Neither treatment is automatically better than the other. The right choice depends on your skin, your concerns, the results you want and the amount of downtime you are comfortable with.

Not sure which one you need? Book a free face-to-face consultation and I’ll assess your skin before recommending the most suitable treatment plan for you.

Mariesha’s bridal face and skin journey 🤎

When we first talked about her wedding, Mariesha was clear: she didn’t want to change her face. She wanted to improve what she already had and still look completely like herself on the day. (As mikey says it’s hard to improve on perfection).

Swipe through to see her journey month by month, from where we started to those gorgeous wedding photos. We took things gradually, giving her skin time and keeping her wishes at the centre of every decision.

This one is especially close to my heart because Mariesha is my cousin, and I had the honour of standing beside her on her wedding day. Seeing her so happy and confident was everything.

How stunning does she look? 🤎

NATURAL & GRADUAL LIP ENHANCEMENT 🤎

Lip filler doesn’t have to mean big lips.

For some clients, the goal is simply to restore a little volume, improve definition and create a beautifully balanced lip while still looking completely natural.

This client chose a gradual approach, allowing us to build her lips carefully over time rather than trying to achieve everything in one appointment.

And this is exactly why I love gradual lip enhancement ✨

Her lips are visibly fuller, but they still suit her face
The Cupid’s bow has more definition
The upper and lower lip are beautifully balanced
Volume has been added without an overfilled appearance
The overall result is soft, feminine and natural

There is no single lip shape that everyone should have. I work with the lips you already have, your facial proportions and what you want to achieve.

Sometimes the best aesthetic result is the one people notice without being able to tell exactly what you’ve had done 🤎

Natural. Gradual. Still you.

THE PEN ISN’T THE TREATMENT PLAN 🤎

Microneedling is so much more than simply running a pen over the skin.

Two people can have the same device used on their skin and have completely different treatments because the skill is knowing what your skin needs, why we’re treating it and how we treat it safely.

Before I even pick up the pen, I’m thinking about your skin health, your concerns, medical history, the indication for treatment and whether microneedling is actually the right option for you.

Then comes the treatment itself.

The depth shouldn’t be the same across every face or even every area of the same face. Product selection matters. Sterile technique matters. Your skin’s response matters. And what happens after you leave the clinic matters too.

More needles, deeper treatment or more bleeding does not automatically equal better results.

Good microneedling is controlled, considered and individualised.

And importantly, sometimes my assessment will tell me that microneedling isn’t the treatment you need. I would much rather tell you that than perform a treatment simply because it’s what you booked.

The pen is just a tool.

The assessment, knowledge, technique, treatment plan, aftercare and review are the treatment. 🤎

HD LIPS 🤎

It’s not always about making lips bigger. Sometimes it’s about making them better defined, beautifully balanced and more hydrated.

HD Lips is a high-definition approach to lip enhancement, with treatment tailored to the individual lip shape rather than following one set technique.

For this client we focused on enhancing the natural shape, improving definition through the Cupid’s bow and lip border, balancing proportions and adding soft, flattering volume while maintaining a natural result.

The result is a fuller, smoother and more defined lip without losing what makes her lips uniquely hers.

✨ Enhanced shape
✨ Improved definition
✨ Better balance and proportion
✨ Added hydration
✨ Soft, natural-looking volume

These photos were taken before and immediately after treatment, so some initial swelling is expected. The lips will soften and settle as they heal.

Every set of lips is different, which is why every treatment starts with a face-to-face consultation and a plan designed specifically for you 🤎

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS AFTER MICRONEEDLING? 🤎

The treatment itself may only take a relatively short amount of time, but the process we’re trying to stimulate continues long after you leave the clinic.

Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries at carefully selected depths, triggering the skin’s natural wound-healing response.

Immediately afterwards your skin may look red, feel warm or tight and, over the following days, you may experience some dryness or light flaking. This is part of the recovery process and varies from person to person.

But this is where people often misunderstand microneedling…

The redness isn’t the result.

The real work happens afterwards.

Over the following weeks, the skin moves through its repair and remodelling process, with collagen and elastin production stimulated progressively. This is why improvements in texture, fine lines, pores, scarring and overall skin quality develop over time rather than appearing overnight.

And one myth I hear regularly is that “good microneedling has to make you bleed.”

It absolutely doesn’t.

More aggressive does not automatically mean more effective. Pinpoint bleeding can occur at certain treatment depths and for certain indications, but it isn’t the measure of whether you’ve had a successful treatment.

Depth, technique and intensity should be selected according to the individual skin, treatment area and what we are actually trying to improve.

That’s why I don’t believe in treating every face with exactly the same protocol.

Real skin. Real progression. No filters, no retouching and no AI alteration of treatment results. 🤎

Results continue to develop as your skin does the work.
