This Advanced Skin Injectables course is a great way to gain accreditation of the most popular skin injectable treatments. It is the perfect way to add to your beauty business or if you already work in the beauty industry you can add a range of treatments to your current treatment list. What is Microneedling? Microneedling is a popular treatment in staying youthful. It’s a procedure that uses fine needles to puncture the skin and create a controlled skin injury in order to rejuvenate skin. It’s also called skin needling, collagen induction therapy (CIT), and percutaneous collagen induction (PCI). What is BioRePeel? BioRePeel is an innovative peel treatment, using patented 2-phase technology. This provides a bio-stimulating, revitalising and peel-like effect. The combination of these components results in a mild exfoliation, stimulating the biosynthetic process, restoring the structure of the skin. This process decreases damage from UV light, pigmentation and acne scars and effectively preventing the ageing of skin. The treatment is suitable for all skin types, including those with fine line wrinkles, acne, fresh scarring and blackheads. What is Mesotherapy? Mesotherapy is a safe, natural alternative to invasive cosmetic procedures and is ideal for dry, dehydrated and dull skin or simply as a skin boost. It improves the condition of the skin from within by boosting the skin’s own renewal mechanisms including production of collagen and elastin for firmer, tighter and smoother skin. This treatment delivers sterile serums into the epidermis which hydrates and gives you “the meso glow”. Mesotherapy can be added on to many in clinic procedures such as Peels, Dermaplaning and other forms of exfoliation treatments. It is an incredibly cost effective treatment which is loved by many celebrities and known in industry as “the red carpet facial “ What are Skin Boosters? Skin boosters are a 5 point injection treatment that is designed to deliver deep skin hydration. Referred to as ‘injectable moisturiser’ They improve skin quality as they promote a natural glow and radiance.
