MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling, also known as dermaroller, skin needling, or collagen induction therapy (CIT) is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure involving the insertion of very fine, short needles in to the skin. These needles puncture the skin creating micro injuries. This injury signals the body to repair these microscopic wounds by producing growth factors, new collagen and elastin, to repair and rejuvenate the skin. Microneedling treatments can be used on the face and body and are slowly becoming an extremely popular treatment targeting a wide range of skin concerns.
Benefits:

What if i dont like my eyebrows?As with all cosmetic procedures, individuals should not make their choices lightly. We always recommend clients do their research, understand the procedure and compare different artists' work and portfolios when making their decisions. Kerry-Ann will do her utmost to shape and style the eyebrows to the clients satisfaction prior to the procedure. Every effort will be made to achieve an even appearance, but please realize our faces are never perfectly symmetrical. Uneven appearance can be fixed during the touch up session. Pigment discoloration and color correction can also be fixed during the the touch up session. Microbladed brows will eventually fade away if no additional touch ups are done.

Are there any risks with microblading?We take all proper precautions for a safe session by using sterilized equipment, new needles and in a sanitized environment. Should clients follow our pre and post care instructions, there should be minimal risks or complications . Although allergic reactions to the pigments are rare, it could be possible for certain individuals. We suggest a pigment patch test for individuals who have high skin sensitivities or are sensitive to: - Topical makeup products - Gold, silver and nickel - Hair dyes

Do i require a patch test?We require all our clients to have done a patch test 48 hour prior to your appointment. For clients who are not local your patch test and instructions will be sent out to you in the post. This involves superficially scratching the skin behind your ear with a small lancet needle and then applying the pigment over the open area.
