Professional microneedling in Jersey to stimulate collagen, improve acne scarring, refine skin texture and support ageing skin. Expert-led, results-focused treatment at Pennyfeathers.
From our mid-30s onwards, collagen production declines steadily each year. This structural protein is responsible for skin firmness, resilience and smooth texture. As levels reduce, the skin becomes thinner, less elastic and slower to repair — leading to fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores and visible acne scarring.
Professional Micro needling is a clinically established collagen induction therapy designed to stimulate the skin’s natural regenerative response. By creating precise, controlled micro-injuries within the dermis, microneedling activates fibroblast activity and encourages the production of new collagen and elastin fibres.
This is not a superficial treatment. When performed at the correct depth, with medical-grade equipment and appropriate skin assessment, microneedling can significantly improve skin texture, remodel acne scarring and strengthen ageing skin over time. The difference lies in understanding the science behind collagen stimulation — and delivering it with precision.
How Microneedling Stimulates Collagen Production
Microneedling works through a process known as collagen induction therapy. Using controlled, vertical micro-channels in the skin, the treatment triggers a precise wound-healing response without causing unnecessary trauma to the surface.
At my clinic, I use the IvanMed medical-grade pen device, designed to deliver consistent depth, stability and accuracy. This level of precision is essential. Collagen stimulation occurs within the dermis, and depth control determines both safety and results. Inexperienced or low-grade devices simply cannot achieve the same biological response.
The controlled micro-injuries created by the IvanMed Pen activate fibroblast cells within the dermis. These cells are responsible for producing collagen and elastin — the structural proteins that give skin its firmness, strength and elasticity. As new collagen forms over the following weeks, the skin gradually becomes thicker, smoother and more resilient.
For women annd Men over 35, this structural stimulation is particularly important. Collagen production slows with age, hormonal changes and environmental damage. Unlike topical products that work superficially, professional microneedling performed at the correct depth stimulates genuine tissue remodelling. Over a structured treatment course, this results in improved skin density, refined pores and visibly stronger, healthier skin..
Microneedling for Acne Scars and Uneven Skin Texture
Acne scarring and textural irregularities develop when collagen within the skin heals unevenly. Depressed scars, enlarged pores and roughness are structural concerns — which means they require structural treatment rather than surface-level exfoliation.
This is why Microneedling is clinically effective for evening texture. By creating controlled micro-channels at targeted depths, the skin is stimulated to break down irregular scar tissue and replace it with new, organised collagen fibres. Over time, this remodelling process softens the appearance of atrophic (indented) scars, refines pore size and improves overall skin smoothness.
Results are progressive because collagen regeneration is a biological process. For optimal improvement, a structured course of up to six sessions spaced approximately four weeks apart is typically recommended. This timing allows the skin to complete each phase of collagen production before the next stimulation cycle begins.
When delivered with precision using a medical-grade device such as the IvanMed Pen, microneedling can significantly refine texture, reduce visible scarring and restore a stronger, more even skin surface. For women And Men over 35, this dual benefit is particularly powerful — addressing both historical acne scarring and age-related collagen decline within the same treatment plan.
Does Microneedling Hurt? What to Expect from Treatment
One of the most common questions we hear is: does microneedling hurt?
When performed professionally, discomfort is minimal and well managed. A topical anaesthetic cream is applied before treatment to ensure the skin is comfortably numb. Most clients describe the sensation as mild pressure or light vibration rather than pain.
Immediately after treatment, the skin will appear flushed — similar to moderate sun exposure — and may feel warm or tight for 24–48 hours. Mild dryness or light flaking can occur as the skin renews itself. Detailed aftercare guidance is provided to support optimal healing and collagen stimulation.

Understanding the full treatment process is important before starting a course. If you would like further detail on suitability, downtime or contraindications, we recommend reviewing our <a href=”/microneedling-faq”>Microneedling FAQ page</a>, where we answer the most common client questions in depth.
When delivered correctly, microneedling is a safe, clinically controlled treatment with minimal downtime and significant long-term benefits for skin strength and texture.
Invest in Stronger, Healthier Skin with Professional Microneedling in Jersey
Collagen loss is inevitable with age — but visible skin decline does not have to be.
Professional microneedling in Jersey offers more than temporary surface improvement. When delivered using a medical-grade device such as the IvanMed Pen and performed with clinical precision, it stimulates genuine structural change within the skin. Over a carefully planned course of treatments, collagen is rebuilt, acne scarring is remodelled and skin texture becomes smoother, firmer and more refined.
For women over 35 who are serious about long-term skin quality, microneedling is not simply a facial — it is a strategic collagen investment.
If you are considering treatment, we recommend booking a personalised consultation to assess your skin, discuss your concerns and design a results-focused treatment plan tailored to you.
Your skin can regenerate — with the right expertise guiding it.
