The main purpose of making this innovative course was to make a new generation of beauty therapists, based on a desire to help people, leave mark from their professional work on clients' faces and bring the quality of work to a higher level.

People are tired of copy-pasted beauty industry workers who do their job automatically, without trying to understand what exactly does the consumer or client needs. The reason why clients chose one beauty therapist to another is a hope that one will live up to their expectations. They expect to be heard and understood. Try to bring in life what customer needs and you will be the best in the market. 

LC Aesthetics Academy has made this course to discover your hidden talents.

The reason why clinics are getting bad reviews is because of lack of information about the consequences of the procedure and clearly prescribed home care. This is another part - professionalism. This is the base of studies of anatomy, dermatology, physiology, chemistry, physics, hygiene, and other disciplines. This information helps beauty therapist to control treatment process, effectiveness, and risks. We offer an intense ONE DAY COURSE which will include essential information from all vital disciplines and will bring your confidence to another level.

What do you expect from the Microneedling course? - Is to be able to provide a high level of knowledge during the treatment which will bring a high income. Our team of highly experienced professionals will lead you from the start (health and safety) till the end (how to sell and make your business more profitable) to fulfill your and your clients' expectations and bring new service to your business or new skills to your workplace.

Principles of micro-needling action

The principle of action of fractional micro-needling is based on mechanical damage to the skin, followed by a regenerative reaction. The thinnest needles of pen create immediately closing micro-traumas, which leads to the stimulation of the work of fibroblasts, the release of growth factors, and cell proliferation in the form of neocollagenesis and neoangiogenesis. The newly formed young collagen fibers, elastin, and capillaries are embedded in the dermis without the formation of fibrosis since the micro-trauma closes within a few minutes and the scarring of the connective tissue does not occur.

Stem cells - a building material, a strategic reserve, consisting of immature cells. At the command of the skin, they are rapidly integrated into the destroyed tissues and acquire their properties. Together with them fibroblasts migrate, recreating new cells. Within 24 hours of the procedure of fractional Microneedling of the face, they eliminate the remnants of damaged, dead cells, old collagen, elastin, outdated melanin.  Microneedling restores the upper layer of the epidermis, forming new cells and new layer of the skin.

The severity of the repair process is enhanced by the active components of the meso cocktails applied to the skin before exposure. Through the microchannels formed, the substances penetrate far inland and remain in the deep layers of the skin, acting many times more efficiently than with the trans-dermal delivery method.

Indications:

• Wrinkles and fine skin density

• Hyperpigmentation

• Rosacea

• Skin flaccidity

• Solar/sun damage

• Stretch marks

• Skin Rejuvenation

• Alopecia (baldness) or hair loss

• Hypertrophic, post-acne, and postsurgical scars

Microneedling pen:

At LC Aesthetics academy we offer fractional skin needling pen device which is a portable device that operates in the mini-stamp mode, the form of a pen with interchangeable needle tips or so-called cartridges with built-in LED light. Cartridges are capable of changing needle length and making oscillatory movements. This device can be used in the salon and at home. The procedure does not require complex skills and special licensing of the salon however to be able to operate it effectively one should do the expert training and get insured. The device operates cordless. Each procedure is performed using replaceable sterile cartridges of 12 pin, 36 pin needles, or nano cartridges, the length of which is adjustable from 0.25 to 2.5 millimeters. Each needle has a sharpening, therefore it damages superficial cells and targets the deep layers of the dermis. That is why the procedure practically does not cause discomfort, however in some cases may feel uncomfortable. Unfortunately, anesthetic or, in simple words, numbing cream cannot be used. The ability to control the length of the needles and the vibration of the device creates conditions for complex, diverse, and effective treatment.
