Microneedling skin rejuvenation method:


 Looking for a procedure that will give you smoother, firmer and younger looking skin and to improve your wrinkles and fine lines with minimal down time?
Microneedling is wonderful non invasive treatment for instantly firmer, smoother skin and is known for its incredible ability to stimulate the growth of collagen and elastin in the skin.
It is not exclusive to face and and can be done on any area of the body that display stretch marks & scars such as belly, legs, chest, back…
With a few Microneedling sessions you will see not only younger, smoother looking skin but also reduction in acne scarring, fine lines, and reduced hyperpigmentation that lasts for long time.

How it works ?

Mirconeedling is an anti ageing procedure that stimulates collagen production and allows better absorption of mesotherapy cocktails. With this effective procedure based on fine needle penetration, which can be precisely controlled, fantastic results can be achieved.
The physiological basis is very simple: To create programmed and controlled micro-damage on the skin, which will naturally respond to these stimuli by increased production of collagen and new cells in that skin zone.

As your skin repairs, the production of collagen and elastin is triggered to give an almost immediate plumping and tightening effect

It also helps tackle other skin concerns such as: scarring, dehydration, dark marks and sun damage.

 PHI ION (Plasma Pen)

The Phi-Ion plasma pen treatment by Phi-Lings tightens the skin, treating sagging, baggy skin excess skin on upper eyelid and lower eyelids, under and around the eye to provide the results of a non-surgical eye lift (blepharoplasty)
Plasma Pen can also be used for reducing wrinkles, crows feet, frown lines and marionette lines, creating similar effects to that of a face lift, but without the surgery.

 

How does Plasma Pen work ?

The treatment process is based on the creation of series of minute dots adjacent to the tension lines on the skin.  Using the state of matter known as Plasma, ionisation of gases from the atmosphere are triggered to create a micro-electrical discharge which sublimates excessive sagging of the upper skin layer known as the epidermis.

An increase in the production of proteins, collagen, and elastin is also stimulated and this continues over the next few weeks, reinforcing the firming and tightening created during the procedure.

Phi Ion Plasma Treatment Results

One or two treatments is usually enough to achieve the desired lifting, tightening and rejuvenation, except in extreme sagging when further treatments may provide more substantial and longer lasting results.
A follow-up appointment is arranged two months later to assess the results and determine if an additional treatment is necessary.
If so, these can be carried out at 4-monthly intervals. Depending upon age, lifestyle, and protection from sun exposure, the results are expected to last for at least 9 months.

 Post Treatment:

Plasma therapy has been shown to be a safe treatment due to its non-invasive nature. The majority of patients experience very minor side effects in the first few days, if any, following treatment.

Following treatment, minute dots will be visible on the area treated. Over the course of a few days, these yellow/brown coloured markings will start healing, creating minor scabbing (carbon crusts). After approximately 5-10 days, these will fall off naturally, revealing new pinkish skin beneath. Some swelling may be experienced (more so in cases of eyelid treatment), but it is likely to only last 2-3 days at the most. 

For other areas this is usually much less, if experienced at all. There is little downtime, other than keeping that specific area dry and makeup free until all scabbing has naturally fallen off. 

It is important not to pick the scabs prematurely and to protect the skin with a high sun factor (factor 50) once all scabbing has gone. 

This is required for 4 months post treatment, as new pink fresh regenerating skin will be visible which will gradually disappear over the course of a few weeks/months depending upon the persons skin.
