The benefits of this treatment are: brighter & tighter skin, permanent results with minimal trauma, change to the skin on a cellular level, targets problem areas, creates anti ageing results and improvement in fine lines and wrinkles.
The treatment can be used on any area of the skin including hands, face, neck, scarring, pigmentation and stretch marks. Treatment can then be repeated every 6 weeks or 2-3 weeks for pigmentation. A course of 3 is recommended for optimal results, and a course of 4 for pigmentation.
Each client differs on how there skin reacts after treatment, some may appear redder than others if the client has sensitive skin. Redness can last up to 3 days post treatment.
We advise not to use make up on the skin for at least 12 hours to allow the products to soak into the skin and reduce clogging up the pores.
Clients will see some results immediately and will feel like the skin has had a deep exfoliation. Results will be fully noticed approximately 1 month post treatment when the new skin cells have regenerated, leaving an appearance of decreased fine lines on the skin, a more radiant complexion and glow to the skin.
This treatment works extremely well on those who suffer with acne scarring or pitting on the skin. The trauma created by the needle penetration helps to increase collagen production in the area to plump out scarring and reduce pore size.
We recommend a minimum of 3 sessions to see optimum results, and 4 sessions for pigmentation. At the end of your course we will assess your skin to see if you are then suitable to move on to a maintenance program.

Fast recovery is usually seen with 24 hours though and you will be fine to continue with day to day activity, however directly after treatment you may experience elevated warmth and tightness 1-2 hours post treatment. You could also experience temporary redness and swelling similar to moderate to sever sunburn 1-3 days post treatment.
With more penetrative treatment (pigmentation/acne scarring) this could last as long as ten days.
Some skin could scab 3 days post procedure.
