Microneedling
Microneedling is a form of Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) which aims to create a controlled non-thermal injury underneath the skin surface, therefore inducing the body to respond through the formation of new tissue layers of elastin and collagen fibers as well as new capillaries for an improved blood supply in the treated area. The skin plumps and thickens in response to this stimulus, ultimately reducing the appearance of scars, and fine lines and other skin texture changes. The class begins with theory then after lunch there will be a live demonstration on a model. Students will pair up and perform the treatment on each other under the supervision of the instructor. The class includes lunch and a certificate upon completion.
