Microneedling: Detailed Insights and Benefits

What conditions can microneedling treat? Microneedling is highly versatile and can address a wide range of skin issues, including:

• Acne scars: By stimulating collagen production, microneedling can reduce the depth and appearance of scars over time.
• Fine lines and wrinkles: The boost in collagen helps to plump the skin, smoothing out lines.
• Large pores: Microneedling can help reduce pore size, giving a smoother skin texture.
• Stretch marks: Although more challenging to treat, microneedling can help diminish the appearance of stretch marks.
• Hyperpigmentation and sun spots: The cell renewal process helps break up pigmentation, revealing a more even complexion.

What is the recovery time, and are there any side effects? After microneedling, clients may experience:

• Redness and swelling for 1-3 days, similar to a mild sunburn.
• Minimal peeling in the following days as new skin cells emerge. We’ll provide a post-care guide to enhance healing and protect results.

Nanoneedling: Perfect for Sensitive Skin and Gentle Rejuvenation

How does nanoneedling differ from microneedling in terms of results? While microneedling penetrates deeper to stimulate collagen, nanoneedling focuses on the epidermal layer, making it ideal for:

• Skin hydration: Nanoneedling can enhance the absorption of serums and nutrients into the skin, which is great for hydration.
• Mild textural improvement: Ideal for clients with minor texture concerns or for those looking for gentle rejuvenation without downtime.
• Shorter recovery: Since nanoneedling is less invasive, there’s typically no downtime, and clients can resume daily activities straight after.

BB Glow: Achieving a Semi-Permanent Glow

How does BB Glow work? BB Glow uses tiny needles to infuse semi-permanent pigments that mimic the effect of foundation or tinted moisturiser. This treatment is particularly beneficial for those looking to:

• Achieve a radiant complexion: BB Glow pigments create a glowing effect that evens out skin tone.
• Minimise pores and reduce redness: The pigmentation smooths the appearance of pores and covers mild redness or discolouration.
• Skip foundation: Results provide a “makeup” look that lasts for months, making it ideal for people who want a no-fuss glow.

Are the pigments safe for skin? Yes, BB Glow uses cosmetic-grade pigments specifically designed for safe application. We only use high-quality pigments that are hypoallergenic and suitable for various skin types. Results can last several months, depending on skin type and care.

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): Natural Regeneration Treatments

PRP vs. PRF: Why choose one over the other?

• PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is popular for clients who want quicker results. Growth factors are released immediately, making PRP suitable for individuals seeking faster skin rejuvenation or quicker hair growth benefits.
• PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a great choice for those looking for longer-lasting, gradual results. The natural, gel-like PRF substance releases growth factors slowly over time, which means fewer treatments may be required for sustained effects.

What are the benefits of PRF for skin and hair rejuvenation?

• Natural healing: PRF uses no additives, making it ideal for those seeking a more natural treatment with minimal risk of side effects.
• Longer-lasting results: PRF can extend the results up to 18 months due to the slow release of growth factors.
• Enhanced tissue repair: The fibrin matrix in PRF supports sustained tissue regeneration, making it particularly effective for rejuvenating delicate skin areas or for clients with sensitive skin.

How soon can I see results with PRP or PRF treatments? Results generally appear within 3-6 months, depending on the treatment area and goals. PRF tends to offer a gradual improvement that builds over time, while PRP can offer quicker but shorter-lasting results.

Microneedling with PRP or PRF for Scalp Hair Restoration

Why combine microneedling with PRP or PRF for hair restoration? Microneedling creates tiny channels that allow PRP or PRF to penetrate deeper into the scalp. The combination of microneedling with growth factors can:

• Stimulate dormant hair follicles and promote new hair growth.
• Increase hair density and thickness by encouraging healthier, stronger hair strands.
• Support scalp health: The nutrient-rich plasma nourishes the scalp, promoting healthier hair growth over time.

What should I expect during and after the treatment?

• During the treatment: You may feel slight pressure or a tingling sensation, but a numbing cream can be applied for comfort.
• Post-treatment care: Avoid washing your hair for 24 hours and limit sun exposure to protect the scalp.
• Visible results: Clients often notice initial improvements in hair health within a few months, with visible density changes within 6 months.

PRP and PRF Injections for Skin Rejuvenation

Why choose PRP or PRF injections over microneedling with PRP/PRF? For targeted treatment, direct injections allow PRP or PRF to penetrate specific areas of concern, like under-eye hollows, fine lines, and areas prone to volume loss. This is ideal for:

• Localised improvement in skin elasticity and firmness.
• Enhancing specific features like the eye area or nasolabial folds, where collagen loss is more pronounced.
• Reducing visible scars and fine lines by boosting collagen production in a focused manner.

How should I care for my skin after PRP or PRF injections?

• Avoid intense sun exposure, heat, and certain skincare products (like retinoids) for a few days post-treatment.
• Keep the area hydrated to maximise results. We provide a tailored aftercare routine to ensure that your results last as long as possible.
