Description
Skin Needling Course
Skin needling involves making ‘micro injuries’ to the skin with very fine needles. These injuries prompt the skin to go into healing mode, which includes the release of collagen, elastin and the stimulation of new supporting skin cells, fibroblasts. This reduces the signs of ageing, like sagging, wrinkles, hollows and uneven skin tone.
The benefits of Skin Needling include:
- Stretch Marks
- Acne
- Acne scarring
- Pigmentation
- Uneven, dry or rough patches of skin
- Fine lines and Wrinkles
- Blemishes and Blackheads
- Sun spots
- Enlarged pores
- Dull uneven skin tones
