At Herb House, we offer a range of Sarah Chapman treatments, from the deeply personalised Sarah Chapman Bespoke Facial to the advanced Stem Cell Collagen Micro-Needling Facial, available in both 60 and 90-minute treatments.

To find out more about one of our most results-driven facials, we sat down with Lilly, our Head Therapist, to discuss the Sarah Chapman Stem Cell Collagen Micro-Needling Facial and its benefits.

What exactly is microneedling, and how does it work?

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses very fine needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-channels stimulate the skin's natural repair process, encouraging collagen production and supporting the skin's ability to renew itself. It's a great way to improve overall skin quality while working with the skin's natural regenerative processes.

What makes the Sarah Chapman Stem Cell Collagen Micro-Needling Facial unique?

What makes this treatment different is that it isn't simply a standard microneedling facial. It combines superficial microneedling with Sarah Chapman's collagen-focused serum technology and her signature facial techniques, creating a treatment that is both results-driven and restorative.

The combination of advanced skincare, targeted microneedling and expert application helps maximise the benefits while remaining gentle on the skin.

What are the key benefits of the treatment, and which skin concerns can it help address?

This is a skin-rejuvenating treatment that combines superficial microneedling, stem-cell technology, massage and, when you choose the 90-minute treatment, LED light therapy.

It's designed to lift, plump and refine the complexion with minimal downtime. Many guests notice an immediate glow after treatment, while the collagen-supporting benefits continue to develop over time.

What can guests expect during and after their treatment?

We begin by preparing the skin with Sarah Chapman's active skincare products before carrying out the superficial microneedling treatment. The microneedling creates tiny micro-channels in the skin, helping to stimulate the skin's natural repair response and collagen production, while also enhancing the delivery of active ingredients.

Depending on the treatment booked, guests may also experience LED light therapy and Sarah Chapman's signature massage techniques.

During the treatment, it's normal to experience some warmth, tingling or mild sensitivity, although the treatment is much more superficial than medical microneedling.

Immediately afterwards, the skin may appear slightly pink or flushed, and can feel warm, tight or a little sensitive. These effects are temporary and usually settle within 24 to 48 hours.

At the same time, the complexion often looks fresher, plumper, brighter and more radiant straight away, with longer-term collagen benefits continuing to develop in the weeks that follow.

Is there any aftercare to be aware of?

After treatment, we recommend avoiding excessive heat, intense exercise and swimming for 24 to 48 hours. It's also important to wear SPF and avoid using strong active ingredients, such as retinoids and exfoliating acids, for a short period afterwards.

We always provide personalised aftercare advice during your appointment to ensure you achieve the best possible results.

Who would you recommend this treatment to?

I'd recommend it to anyone looking for visible skin rejuvenation and a smoother, firmer, more radiant complexion.

It's particularly effective for those experiencing fine lines and early signs of ageing, dull or lacklustre skin, dehydration, loss of elasticity or uneven texture. If you're looking for a treatment that delivers both immediate radiance and longer-term skin benefits, it's a fantastic option.
