Microneedling with Dermapen 4™

Advanced microneedling in Cambridge for acne scarring, uneven texture, enlarged pores and healthier-looking skin.


What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a clinically proven skin treatment designed to support the skin’s natural renewal process and improve overall skin quality over time.

Using tiny sterile needles, controlled micro-channels are created within the skin’s surface. This helps stimulate collagen and elastin production: two proteins important for maintaining firmer, smoother and healthier-looking skin.

Clients commonly come to us for concerns such as acne scarring, enlarged pores, dull skin, uneven texture and early signs of skin ageing.

At Elemental Aesthetics, treatments are kept personalised and natural-looking — with a focus on healthier-looking skin rather than dramatic change.

How does microneedling work?

Treatment is performed using the advanced Dermapen 4™ device, which glides across the skin using sterile single-use needle cartridges.

The controlled micro-channels created during treatment encourage the skin’s repair response and collagen production. Treatment depth can also be adjusted depending on the area being treated and your individual skin concerns.

Microneedling is often combined with professional topical serums or exosomes selected to support hydration, recovery and overall skin health, while also improving absorption into the skin during treatment


Why choose Dermapen 4™?

Dermapen 4™ is one of the most advanced microneedling systems available, designed to deliver precise, consistent treatments with minimal discomfort and downtime.

Combined with professional skin assessment and tailored treatment planning from Arwa here at Elemental Aesthetics in Cambridge, microneedling becomes far more than a standard facial, it becomes part of a longer term skin health journey.

Why choose Elemental Aesthetics for microneedling in Cambridge?

At Elemental Aesthetics, the focus is less about chasing trends or overly aggressive treatments, and more about improving long-term skin quality in a natural-looking way.

Your treatment is carried out by Arwa, a clinical pharmacist and trained Dermapen 4™ practitioner, with a focus on evidence-led skin treatments and subtle, personalised results.

Depending on your skin concerns and goals, microneedling may also be combined with complementary treatments such as polynucleotides or skin boosters as part of your treatment plan.


What happens during treatment?

Your appointment starts with a consultation and skin assessment with Arwa, to understand your skin concerns, goals and suitability for treatment.

After cleansing and preparing the skin, the Dermapen 4™ device is passed across the treatment area using sterile single-use needle cartridges. Treatment depth and intensity are adjusted depending on the area being treated and your individual skin concerns.

Professional serums may also be used during treatment to support hydration and skin recovery.

Most appointments take around 45–60 minutes.

After treatment, the skin usually appears pink or lightly flushed, similar to mild sun exposure, before settling over the next 24–48 hours.

How many microneedling sessions will I need?

Depending on your skin concerns, Arwa may recommend a course of 3–6 treatments, usually spaced 4–6 weeks apart. We have 3 and 6 session microneedling session packages available - See Our Price List

Results improve progressively over several months as skin renewal continues.

Some clients then choose occasional maintenance treatments as part of their longer-term skin care plan.
