Rejuvenating the skin on your face is important for many reasons….

Skin Needling Sunshine Coast

SKIN NEEDLING (C.I.T. – Collagen Induction Therapy) – CIT is an amazing anti-aging and rejuvenating treatment for the face, neck, decolletage and hands. This treatment causes new collagen & elastin to be produced, resulting in a younger, healthier, plumper and firmer skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne, scars, better tone and texture. It gives an overall radiance to the skin. Skin Needling is a safe, tested and reliable procedure that involves creating miocroscopic punctures in the skin using a specialised Pen, with 12 or 36 pin disposable cartridges. The treatment is often preferred over laser treatments as there is no risk of burning and damage to the epidermis. Skin Needling is a non-invasive procedure. Minimal downtime. Approximately 48 to 72 hours after the treatment you will have an increase of collagen production. It takes 4-6 weeks to see noticeable results.

A series of treatments are recommended every 4-6 weeks depending on your skin concern. Suitable for all skin types & colors (with adequate preparation)
