Cellstory
Cellstory is an advanced, eight-step facial treatment suitable for patients looking to improve dullness, uneven texture, fine lines, visible pores, pigmentation, and a loss of elasticity. Often described as a form of needle free microneedling, it offers many of the skin-renewing benefits associated with traditional microneedling without the use of a mechanical needling device.
During the Cellstory facial, a series of specially formulated products is carefully applied to prepare, treat, calm, and hydrate the skin. At the centre of the treatment is patented Microspear® technology, which uses microscopic spicules derived from freshwater-grown sponges. These tiny structures are gently massaged into the skin as part of the microspear facial, helping to support cellular renewal and improve the delivery of beneficial active ingredients.
This process is commonly referred to as liquid microneedling because the Microspears create a similar skin-stimulating effect to microneedling without conventional metal needles. The treatment helps encourage the skin’s natural renewal response, supporting collagen production and improvements in firmness, texture, and radiance.
Cell Story treatment can be incorporated into a personalised skincare plan for patients who want to address multiple concerns within one facial. It may help soften the appearance of fine lines, refine uneven skin texture, reduce the visibility of enlarged pores, and improve the appearance of dull or tired-looking skin.
The professional microspear treatment also allows targeted skincare ingredients to work more effectively within the upper layers of the skin. As the skin renews following treatment, patients may notice a fresher, smoother and more radiant complexion. Results vary between patients and may continue to develop in the days following the appointment.
Unlike traditional microneedling, this form of needleless microneedling does not involve a mechanical device repeatedly puncturing the skin. There is no bleeding and anaesthetic is not normally required. Some patients may experience a tingling, prickling, or slightly sensitive sensation during and after treatment as the Microspears begin working within the skin.

FAQ
Am I suitable for a Cellstory facial?
The treatment may be suitable for most adults who wish to improve skin texture, tone, firmness or radiance. It may also be considered for concerns such as visible pores, pigmentation, fine lines and acne-related marks.
A consultation is required before treatment so that your clinician can assess your skin, medical history and individual goals. Certain active skin conditions or sensitivities may need to settle before treatment can take place.
Is Cellstory the same as traditional microneedling?
No. Traditional microneedling uses a device containing metal needles to create controlled channels within the skin. Cellstory uses microscopic spicules within a specialist skincare formula, which are massaged into the skin without a mechanical needling device.
For this reason, the treatment is often described as needle free microneedling, needleless microneedling or a liquid microneedling facial.
Is the Cellstory treatment painful?
The treatment does not normally require anaesthetic, although patients may experience a noticeable prickling or tingling sensation while the Microspears are applied. The skin may continue to feel slightly sensitive or prickly when touched for a short period after the appointment.
Individual comfort levels vary, and your practitioner will explain what to expect before beginning the treatment.
Are there any side effects or risks?
Some patients may experience temporary redness, dryness, sensitivity, tingling or mild flaking following treatment. These effects are part of the skin-renewal process and should gradually settle.
It is important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner. This may include avoiding strong active skincare products, excessive heat, strenuous exercise and direct sun exposure for a specified period.
Is there any associated downtime?
Downtime is generally minimal, although the skin may appear slightly red or feel sensitive immediately after treatment. Mild dryness or flaking may also develop as the skin renews.
Most patients can continue with their usual activities, but the skin should be treated gently and protected with suitable sun protection. Your practitioner will provide personalised guidance based on how your skin responds.
