Microneedling is one of the most requested skin treatments there is, and most of the difference between a good result and a wasted appointment is depth. This half day covers what is happening in the skin, how to choose depth and speed for the concern in front of you, and how to keep someone safe while you do it.
What the session covers
- 01Skin anatomy and contraindicationsThe layers you are working through, and the conditions and medications that mean you do not treat at all.
- 02Collagen induction and wound healingWhat the needles actually trigger, and why the result shows up weeks later rather than on the day.
- 03Depth and speed selectionChoosing both for the area and the concern, and recognising the point where you are causing damage rather than a response.
- 04Protocols by concernAgeing skin, acne scarring and pigmentation — how the treatment plan differs for each and how many sessions to expect.
- 05Consultation, hygiene and aftercareAssessment and consent, sterile technique and sharps handling, and the aftercare that protects the result.
