What is Skin needling?
Also known as Micro needling or Dermal Needling
Skin rejuvenation is the main goal and to optimise cell function, target keratinocyte, melanocyte and fibroblast, preserve the integrity of the epidermis, strengthen dermal/ epidermal juncture, preserve dermal papillae, break down scar tissue, release epidermal growth factors (EGF) increase natural collagen, induce regenerative healing.
To create skin rejuvenation needling devices use very fine surgical stainless-steel needles to make channels into the epidermis and dermis to release growth factors that promote healing and collagen production.
In our course you will learn how to use a pen and a roller type device.
This course is for already qualified therapists to a level three or equivalent.
We will give you all the knowledge, practical skills and confidence you need to perform a professional, in-depth and results driven treatment.
You will leave the course full of confidence in your ability to carry out a great treatment and you are able to go and start offering the treatment straight away.
Firstly, you will start with your theory-based tasks which will all be completed online and at your own pace at home. This leaves us maximum time in the salon to concentrate on honing your practical skills.
On completion of our practical day, you will be required to carry out two case studies at home to demonstrate your capabilities.
You will then return to the salon for a final facial assessment on a paying client with my supervision to show off all you have learnt and that you are a very capable therapist.
