1. Laser Clinics UK
Location: LaserClinicsUK, 63-65 Northumberland St, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7AF
Contact: +44 191 580 7075
Opening Hours: Monday -Tuesday & Friday: 9:45 AM – 8:00 PM, Wednesday – Thursday: 8:45 AM – 8:00 PM, Saturday: 9:45 AM – 5:00 PM, Sunday: 10:45 AM – 5:00 PM
We liked the range of acne scar treatments at this clinic. Offerings include microneedling, cosmetic-grade peels, and enzyme peels with LED therapy.
One of their most in-demand services is their microneedling face treatment. This resurfaces scarring in 30-minute sessions. With a promotional price, this only costs £110 instead of £219.99.
They also offer complimentary consultations to discuss acne scars, pigmentation, and redness before any commitment. Clients described this process as in-depth with good attention to detail.
Therapists explain every procedure step-by-step. We also appreciate how they adjust treatments based on skin sensitivity.
The results we’ve heard so far are solid. Many clients reported visible reductions in redness, smoother texture, and fading scars in just 2 to 3 sessions.
Some clients even noticed enough improvements to stop wearing makeup regularly.
Just take note that stronger results usually require 4 to 6 sessions. This may become costly for many clients outside promotional periods.
Listens to queries and worries
“I have been getting microneedling for over a year now for my acne scarring and the service has always been amazing. They make the experience so comfortable and always listen to my queries and worries. They also offered a free laser treatment when they noticed I had burst blood vessels on my skin to see if it would work to remove them. Amazing service I will continue to go for treatments.”

Very comfortable and relaxing
“I recently had a blue LED skin treatment and an enzyme peel with LED with Lily to help reduce acne. Each session has been very comfortable and relaxing.
After each treatment, my skin looked brighter, and a few weeks in I have noticed a reduction in redness and breakouts. Overall, I highly recommend this treatment for anyone struggling with acne!”

2. sk:n Newcastle
Location: Ground Floor, 5 St Nicholas’ St, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 1RF
Contact: +44 333 014 1666
Opening Hours: Tuesday & Thursday: 9:30 AM – 8:00 PM, Wednesday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM, Friday – Saturday: 8:30 PM – 5:30
What stood out to us is their medically driven approach with consultant dermatologists and doctors. They treat rolling scars, boxcar scars, icepick scars, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
We loved their range of advanced treatments. Options include Fraxel laser resurfacing, CO2RE laser, and acne laser therapy.
We also appreciate that severe scarring cases are referred directly to doctors rather than being handled solely by therapists.
Typical results show in 3 months after the final session. In addition to that, patients are guided carefully through the redness recovery and each healing stage.
Consultations included scar severity assessments and medical history reviews. We loved how in-depth this is, so they can recommend appropriate plans.
Communication is excellent. Their team ensures regular follow-ups and even phone and email check-ins. This is great for supportive aftercare.
Unfortunately, we heard a few complaints about the surprising final bills. We recommend checking in with the prices to ensure they align with your budget.
Lovely and welcoming staff
“Staff are lovely and welcoming! Treatment was done efficiently and the members of staff always made me feel comfortable during my consultation and appointments. Would completely recommend to anyone who needs laser hair removal or suffers from acne. Overall a great experience and wonderful service. :)”

3. Laserase Newcastle
Location: 1 Cartington Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne NE6 5RS
Contact: +44 191 213 0666
Opening Hours: Monday: 4:00 AM – 8:30 PM, Tuesday & Thursday: 9:00 PM – 8:30 PM, Wednesday: 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM, Friday: 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM,
Laserase earned our trust with their 33 years of experience, plus 27 years of NHS partnership. Additionally, all acne scar treatments are delivered by NHS-trained doctors.
Their range of acne scar solutions is impressive. Offerings include EndyMed Intensif, eDermastamp microneedling, and Regenlite pulsed dye laser.
We appreciate that they explain how visible collagen improvements take 3 months. This ensures realistic expectations before starting the plan.
Clients often praise them for being sensitive and reassuring. One thoughtful touch was allowing private time to reapply makeup after facial procedures.
It’s not much, but it definitely makes a difference in the experience.
Their high-end medical laser systems are sold. Not only are they effective, but many clients also confirmed how comfortable they are.
Treatments combine lasers, fillers, and microneedling. This is a great approach, instead of pushing a universal package or going for separate treatments that can be costly.
The only thing is that communication and facilities can feel outdated.
Few complaints about receptionist communication
Incredibly nice and welcoming
“Staff are incredibly nice and make you feel welcomed. They always try their best to accommodate any needs you may have. I was considerably a young age when I started getting laser hair removal treatment, but the staff (especially the practitioner Jo) always put my nerves at rest and would reassure me. The results of the treatment have reach beyond my expectations and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Highly recommend.”

Exemplary professionals
“My experience has been overwhelmingly positive. I’ve had both laser hair removal and electrolysis and all the practioners have been superb. They are knowledgeable, welcoming and accepting and are exemplary professionals. As well as giving detailed information, the treatments have been carried out with care and attention to minimising any discomfort. Even the receptionist has been great – juggling appointments around to fit in with other treatments I am having. Highly recommended.”

4. The Academy. By Skin & Soul Medical
Location: 28 Lime St, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 2PL
Contact: +44 7498 457410
Opening Hours: Tuesday & Thursday: 9:30 AM – 8:00 PM, Wednesday: 9:30 AM – 6:00 PM, Friday: 9:30 AM – 6:00 PM, Saturday: 9:30 PM – 3:00
We find The Academy to be a great option for medical-grade acne scar treatments. It also has a luxury spa atmosphere that makes clients extra comfortable.
Their range of services is good. Clients can come here for microneedling plus options like PRP, exosomes, and HA.
Among their solutions, we find their pHformula skin resurfacing facial to be a solid option. This one combines pharmaceutical-grade acid with LED light therapy.
The process is pretty simple. New clients must book a consultation to create a tailored plan based on their skin and lifestyle.
Many facials last 60 minutes or more. The whole session already includes extractions, massage therapy, and pressure point therapy without rushing the clients.
Another key offering is their teen-oriented facials. There are also pregnancy-safe facials, making them accessible for a wide range of clients.
There were just a few inconsistencies about appointment policies. This can cause confusion, which can be frustrating to the clients.
Comfortable and well looked after
“I’ve just had microneedling done and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I walked in, I felt completely comfortable and well looked after. Everything was explained clearly, including what to expect during and after the treatment, which really put me at ease. The aesthetic of the space is absolutely gorgeous too- highly recommend.”

Beautiful and relaxing clinic
“Absolutely love coming here for my micro-needling sessions. Everyone who works here is lovely and the clinic is so beautiful and relaxing, always smells incredible. The treatment also goes above and beyond what I expected consisting of a facial, micro-needling and a shoulder massage. I leave feeling incredibly relaxed every time and confident that I’m doing what’s best for my skin by coming here.”

5. Skin Camouflage Services Ltd (Newcastle)
Location: 22 Osborne Ave, Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne NE2 1JQ
Contact: +44 191 281 3379
Opening Hours: Monday – Saturday: 9:00 AM – 5:30 PM
Skin Camouflage focuses on issues like acne scars, burns, and post-operative marks. Many previous clients mention feeling more confident after their sessions.
Consultations are extremely thorough, with clear explanations of techniques and product choices. They tailor treatments to every skin tone using custom color matching.
This makes the results more satisfactory and realistic.
Their services include ScarWork and medical tattooing. We liked this range as it makes them accessible to a wide range of clients with varying needs.
Not only does this make them ideal for acne scars, but the offerings also make them great for rosacea, vitiligo, and birthmarks, too.
The clinic is welcoming and private. Staff even check comfort levels through the appointments.
As for aftercare, they offer follow-up support via Zoom. We think this is a convenient option for busy clients.
Advanced treatments can be costly. If you have severe scarring and need multiple sessions, this may end up being steep depending on your budget.
Remarkable difference
“I recently attended a skin camouflage session with Vanessa, and she was incredibly patient, making me feel completely at ease. The difference was remarkable, and I can’t wait to start using the product. I left the appointment with a confidence I hadn’t felt in a long time. I can’t recommend Vanessa enough.”

Amazing knowledge and products
“I had the pleasure of meeting Vanessa yesterday for a skin camouflage assessment.
I was very nervous prior to the appointment and at times during however Vanessa is so warm and welcoming and totally put me at ease.
Her knowledge on products amazed me and I’m excited to continue working with her in the future looking at products I didn’t even realise were available and of benefit to me! I’d 110% recommend Vanessa and Sue.”
