Skin Needling
Our renowned Course is an intensive advanced facial skincare training course that will teach you to deliver these in-demand treatments with confidence.
Microneedling is renowned for rejuvenating the skin's surface leaving it looking smoother, with improved skin tone and firmness. It is excellent as an anti-aging treatment working on fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation but also can bring dramatic improvements to scarring and acne indentations on the face. Often referred to as skin needling, dermarolling or collagen induction therapy, it is administered using a dermaroller or automated pen applicator. We will cover both methods on this course. The process is safe and comfortable for the client, moving the device across the surface of the skin to create minute, superficial punctures that will incite minor trauma to the skin to stimulate the body's natural healing process. This in turn boosts blood and lymph circulation and stimulates collagen cell growth as part the skin's natural 3 stage healing process to force the renewal of the epidermis.
These treatments are great as a course of treatments, recommended monthly - with minimal to no downtime so that clients immediately gain the benefits with no drawbacks.
