At Mulberry House Clinic, we’re proud to be recognised as one of the UK’s leading providers of Tixel® thermal fractional skin rejuvenation — a cutting-edge, non-laser, non-injection skin rejuvenation technology that delivers significant improvements in skin health, texture, and radiance, with minimal downtime.
Mulberry House Clinic has offered Tixel treatment since 2017, and it has quickly become one of the clinic’s preferred treatment options. While many clinics may offer basic treatments like microneedling or chemical peels, very few in the UK provide Tixel — and even fewer combine it with our level of expertise and personalised care.
As Dr John Tanqueray explains:
“Tixel offers the benefits of skin resurfacing for skin texture and tightening, and improvement in acne and scarring without the downtime and pain experienced with existing treatments.”
What Is Tixel® Thermal Fractional Rejuvenation?
Tixel® is an advanced skin rejuvenation system based on Thermo-Mechanical Ablation (TMA) technology. Unlike lasers or microneedling, Tixel uses pure thermal energy delivered through a patented heated titanium tip to create precise micro-injuries in the skin. These stimulate collagen remodelling, tissue renewal and improved skin quality without the need for lasers, needles or chemical peels.
The device harnesses controlled heat for a fraction of a second, delivering energy uniformly and safely, making it suitable for a wide range of skin areas — including the face, eye region, neck and décolletage — and across most skin types.
How Tixel® Works
At its core, Tixel® applies a calibrated, heated tip that briefly contacts the skin surface, transferring heat to the upper dermis where rejuvenation processes begin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing response and encourages new collagen and elastin formation, which helps:
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
- Improve skin texture and tone
- Smooth rough or uneven skin
- Tighten laxity
- Enhance skin radiance and luminosity
- Fade pigmentation concerns over time
Because the heat application is so controlled and brief, Tixel can deliver results similar to fractional CO₂ or erbium laser resurfacing — yet with far less discomfort and significantly shorter recovery for most clients.
Clinical Evidence and Safety
Tixel® is supported by a growing body of clinical research that demonstrates both safety and efficacy:
- In a published clinical study, subjects receiving three Tixel treatments experienced skin complexion improvements in all participants, wrinkle reduction in 75% of cases, and minimal downtime — with no serious adverse effects such as scarring or persistent redness. (ref PubMed)
- The technology has also been shown to enhance transdermal delivery of active skincare molecules (such as vitamin C), creating micro-channels that remain open for hours and improve product penetration. (ref mulberryhouseclinic.co.uk)
- Larger safety reviews demonstrate that Tixel’s thermomechanical approach is well-tolerated across a broad range of Fitzpatrick skin types, with low complication rates and high patient satisfaction. (ref PubMed)
Additionally, Tixel has achieved FDA clearance, recognising its safety profile and confirming its suitability for dermatologic use. (ref mulberryhouseclinic.co.uk)
Versatility: Tailoring Tixel to Your Goals
One of the key strengths of Tixel® is its versatility, with multiple treatment modes that can be tailored to individual needs:
- Open-Channel Mode: Creates temporary micro-channels that allow deeper penetration of serums, peptides or exosome therapies for enhanced results.
- Non-Ablative Mode: Offers a gentler approach with comparable tightening benefits over a course of treatments and minimal downtime.
- Ablative Mode: Delivers deeper thermal effect for more intensive rejuvenation, improved tightening, and scar revision with a slightly longer but still modest recovery period.
This adaptability makes Tixel suitable for a broad range of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, surface texture irregularities, pigmentation issues, enlarged pores, and early signs of ageing. It also works comfortably around delicate areas such as the eyes, where laser treatments can be more challenging.
Why Mulberry House Clinic Excels in Delivering Tixel®
While many clinics may offer basic treatments like microneedling or simple peels, only a handful in the UK have adopted Tixel®, and even fewer combine it with medical expertise and personalised plans. Mulberry House Clinic distinguishes itself by:
- Specialised training and experience: Our practitioners are highly trained in advanced technologies, ensuring safe, customised treatments tailored to your skin type and concerns.
- A holistic approach: We integrate Tixel with expert consultations and aftercare protocols to maximise results and minimise downtime.
- Selective use of adjunctive therapies: We combine Tixel with targeted serums or exosome therapy where appropriate, using the open-channel treatment mode to enhance delivery and outcomes.
- Safety first: A medical assessment precedes every Tixel treatment, ensuring it is the right choice for your skin and expectations.
