This groundbreaking course provides in-depth instruction in Skin and Facial Needling- CRT, (Collagen Rejuvenation Therapy™) Melanocyte Restoration and Scar Relaxation.

Facial Needling (also called Microneedling) is the process of inserting a sterile needle grouping into the epidermal layer of tissue to create a wound. The induced trauma signals the brain to send collagen to the injured site to repair it, creating an abundance of collagen. This, in turn, plumps up the injured area, creating a soft and subtle appearance while diminishing fine lines and wrinkles. Your clients will love how you make their skin glow, plump up their wrinkles, acne scars, surgical scars and more as you turn back the hands of time giving them a more youthful appearance.

Melanocyte Restoration is a process that uses a technique similar to that used in Skin Needling/ Collagen Rejuvenation Therapy/Microneedling. With no pigment involved, the technician uses his or her needle to repeatedly pierce the skin in areas with hypo-pigmentation to stimulate the melanocyte cells in the epidermis, which in turn reproduce melanin. Learn to use this process to help the treated discolored areas to blend in with the rest of the client’s/patient’s skin creating a semblance of colour tones for normalcy.

Scar Relaxation for contractured tissue helps those whose movements are restricted due to severe scarring. Learn to use the proper techniques for releasing the fibrous bands of scar tissue and increasing the range of motion and maneuverability of the patient’s scarred area.
