We study the 4-dimensional $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ spin model for all integers $n \ge 1$, and the 4-dimensional continuous-time weakly self-avoiding walk which corresponds exactly to the case $n=0$ interpreted as a supersymmetric spin model. For these models, we analyse the correlation length of order $p$, and prove the existence of a logarithmic correction to mean-field scaling, with power $\frac 12\frac{ n+2}{ n+8}$, for all $n \ge 0$ and $p>0$. The proof is based on an improvement of a rigorous renormalisation group method developed previously.
