Our full menu of aesthetic treatments in Newcastle
Each treatment is offered after a consultation and has its own page with more detail.
Skin treatments
- Facials, including hydrating and deep cleansing options, for regular professional care and skin that needs attention.
- Chemical peels, which exfoliate the outer layers of skin at a strength chosen for your skin type.
- Microneedling, a more targeted treatment for texture concerns that works by creating tiny, controlled channels in the skin.
Injectable treatments
- Skin boosters, which aim to improve hydration and skin quality without adding visible volume.
- Dermal fillers, used to restore or add volume and refine contours in selected areas of the face.
- Lip fillers, a specific use of filler to adjust lip shape, volume or definition.
Which treatment suits your concern?
The quickest way to find the right treatment is to start with what bothers you, then work back to the options. The pairings below are a starting point, although your consultation may point elsewhere.
Dry, dull or tired-looking skin
A hydrating facial is usually the first option we look at for skin that feels tight or lacks brightness. If dryness persists despite a good routine, skin boosters may be worth considering, because they work on hydration from beneath the surface. A light chemical peel can also help when dullness comes from a build-up of surface cells.
Uneven texture and acne scarring
Microneedling is often the main treatment we consider for rough texture and some types of depressed acne scarring. Chemical peels can help with milder texture concerns. Active breakouts, infection or certain medications may mean we suggest waiting, so we check these first.
Uneven tone and patchy colour
Chemical peels are commonly used for uneven tone, with the strength chosen carefully because some skin types carry a higher risk of pigmentation changes. A patch test may be recommended before the first session.
Lost volume and softer contours
When the concern is volume rather than skin quality, dermal fillers are the relevant option. They can restore fullness to areas such as the cheeks or soften the look of certain folds, depending on your facial anatomy. Skin treatments cannot replace volume, so it helps to be clear which of the two you are noticing.
Lip shape, balance and definition
Lip fillers are planned around your existing lips and the proportions of your face. Some clients want a subtle increase in volume, while others want a clearer border or better balance between the upper and lower lip.
Skin treatments or injectables, which is right for you?
Skin treatments work on the condition of your skin itself. They improve how it looks and feels by cleansing, exfoliating or prompting the skin to renew, and results tend to build gradually over a series of appointments. Recovery ranges from very little after a facial to a period of redness and flaking after microneedling or a stronger peel.
Injectables work beneath the surface. Skin boosters add hydration, while dermal and lip fillers add structure or volume, so the change is usually visible sooner, although swelling can affect how things look at first. Injectables carry different risks from skin treatments, which we explain in full at consultation. Dermal and lip fillers are only offered to adults aged 18 and over, as the law in England requires.
The decision often becomes simpler once you separate skin quality from volume. If you want smoother, clearer or more even skin, start with skin treatments. If you want shape or fullness, an injectable is more likely to help. If you are still undecided, request a free consultation and we will talk it through.
Can you combine treatments?
Combining treatments can work well when each one addresses a different concern. A client might have dermal fillers for volume alongside a course of peels for tone, or use regular facials to look after their skin between microneedling sessions. The order and spacing matter, because some treatments need the skin to settle before the next one begins. When we recommend a combined plan, we set out the sequence in your written quote.
Single appointments and treatment courses
Some treatments are complete in one visit, while others are planned as a short series. Facials can be booked individually or as part of a regular routine. Microneedling, chemical peels and skin boosters are often booked as a course, because the skin responds gradually. Fillers are usually a single appointment, sometimes with a follow-up check afterwards. We only recommend a course when there is a clear reason for it, and progress is checked along the way. You can see how courses are reflected in your quote on our treatment prices page.
How Newcastle Cosmetics helps you choose
At your free consultation, we look at your skin, ask about your health and any previous treatments, and listen to what you want to achieve. We then recommend one or more options, explain the possible risks, side effects and recovery for each, and give you a written quote. If a treatment is not suitable, Newcastle Cosmetics will say so and suggest an alternative where there is one. You are free to take the quote away and decide in your own time. Book your free consultation to start the conversation.
Frequently asked questions about our treatments
Do I need to choose a treatment before I enquire?
No. Describe the concern you want help with and we will suggest suitable options at your consultation.
Which is the gentlest treatment on the menu?
A facial is generally the gentlest option. It suits most skin types and is a sensible starting point if you have not had professional skin treatments before.
How long do results last?
That varies by treatment and from person to person. Results from skin treatments depend partly on your routine and sun protection, and filler results gradually fade over time. We explain what to expect for your chosen treatment at consultation.
Can I come from outside Newcastle?
Yes. Clients travel to us from across the North East, and all appointments take place in Newcastle. Our areas we serve page lists the towns our clients come from.
What if I have a skin condition or take medication?
Tell us at your consultation. Some conditions and medicines affect which treatments are suitable, and in some cases we may suggest speaking to your GP first. You can read more about how we work on our about Newcastle Cosmetics page.
